Message: [QUOTE="jmcilhinney, post: 4719, member: 3"] All arrays are reference types. References exist so that you have something that gets treated like it's an object from the outside and like it's a pointer on the inside. It's much like properties are actually methods but they appear to be a field from the outside; references are actually pointers but appear to be objects from the outside. It's not quite that simple but it may help to think of it like that. The only question you have to ask is whether something is a reference type, i.e. class or delegate, or a value type, i.e. structure or enumeration. There is no in between; it's either one or the other and that tells you how it gets used. [/QUOTE]
