Is super() the only code that can be implicit inserted in constructors if needed?

I am trying to understand the Java compiler a little bit about the constructors. I know there are lots of topics about the super keyword in Java.

My main focus aspect of super key word in this question are:

Does the Java compiler implicitly generates some other constructors apart from default one (super()), for example: super(args1, args2)?

and can this statement be true?

I am 100% sure that super() is the only code that the Java compiler will insert to a constructor if the constructor does not have super or this in the first statement?

Compiler will, by default, generate a call to super() constructor within your sub-class constructor, as a first statement, and that's the only thing it will implicitly do for you regarding your question.

If the super-class doesn't have a default constructor, then you must explicitly call to a whichever constructor is available for you (and which you wish among available ones) in the constructor of your subclass.

Answer to your question:

"Does Java compiler has cases that it implicit inserts something else like super(args1, args2) in constructors?"

Ans:- No, you need to add manually.

"I am 100% sure that super() is the only code that the Java compiler will insert to a constructor if the constructor does not have super or this in the first statement"?

And:- default constructor of the parent class is implicit added by the compiler. If it required and not present.
