Is string reference type / value type?
Answer Posted / n
Hi Guys
If any of you got so far.. Here is the deal:
The differnce between value types and reference types are
whether the information is stored in the stack or on the
heap. Design guidelines for designing structures (value
type, stored in the stack) is that it's instance value
should be less than 16 bytes.
In the .NET Framework, ALL value types are 16 bytes or
shorter.
A string can be a lot more than 16 bytes...
It does however act like a value type in order to make the
programming easier for us... This can be the reason for all
this confusion...
Now stop arguing and start converting coffee into code....
