sample C# code for Value vs Reference Types

gistfile1.cs

Point myPoint = new Point (0, 0);      // a new value-type variable
Form myForm = new Form();              // a new reference-type variable
Test (myPoint, myForm);                // Test is a method defined below

void Test (Point p, Form f)
{
      p.X = 100;                       // No effect on MyPoint since p is a copy
      f.Text = "Hello, World!";        // This will change myForm’s caption since
                                       // myForm and f point to the same object
      f = null;                        // No effect on myForm
}
