Resharper Find With Pattern - help finding constructors in multiple classes

Goal:

In all classes in a particular project, find all constructors which look like this:

public Alert(DBConnection dbConnection, SqlInt32 Alert_ID)
    : base (dbConnection, Alert_ID)
{
}

and replace with this:

public Alert(DBConnection dbConnection, SqlInt32 Alert_ID)
    : base (dbConnection, Alert_ID)
{
}

protected Alert() {}

protected override Generated.Alert GetNew()
{
    return new Alert();
}

I've tried every pattern I can think of in Resharper's Find with Pattern option, but even the simplest expression like: public Alert(DBConnection dbConnection, SqlInt32 Alert_ID) yields "Nothing found".

Is Resharper incapable of identifying methods/constructors? Can it only find code within them?


Ok - update - this pattern found the matches I want:

public $t$(DBConnection dbConnection) : base(dbConnection)
{
$stmt$
}

So next goal is to insert new methods - like a new public empty constructor.

Trying this replace pattern - but again, no joy:

public $t$(DBConnection dbConnection) : base(dbConnection)
{
$stmt$
}

public $t$() {}

if I try something like

public $t$(DBConnection dbConnection) : base(dbConnection) { $stmt$ //hi }

it works- the comment is inserted. But if I add code outside of the declared search pattern, no such luck...

So now what?

The following just worked for me:

public WCFTest1Tests()
{
$code$
}

Where $code$ is set to any number of statements.
