Java Programming

I am using third party libraries to do my development. The base class I am extending my class from does not have any constructors (with or without arguments). So, during compilation I get the following error message

"Implicit super constructor Foo() is undefined. Must explicitly invoke another constructor."

So, I declared a new constructor with argument in my class but still got the same error message. So, I added the the statement super(); to it. I got the error message

"Constructor Foo() is undefined"

Code Snippet:

public class ChildFoo extends Foo {

String name;

public ChildFoo(String name){
super();
this.name = name;
}
}

Since class Foo() extends from java.lang.Object my assumption was it will invoke the java.lang.Object default constructor since it is chained.
I am at a loss. It has been some years I have coded in java. Any help is appreciated,
