What is difference between value and reference types ?
Answer Posted / narayansahu
value types are stored on stack whereas reference types are
stored on heap memory.
dim i as integer
or
int i
i here ia a value type and will be stored on stack.
Actually nearly all the basic types are implemented as a
structure.
where as
dim i as new Point()
(assuming point as a class)
i here is a referece variable(pointer) and will be stored
on stack where as The Point object will be created on heap
and i will point to it.
