Returning type Java and C# [closed]

by

In Java everything is returned by value. That includes references and here’s where the confusion is!

If I have:

Trade t = new Trade();

then t is a reference (we’d say it is-a Trade, but that refers to the type. t really is a reference). When I return that from a method, I’m returning the reference, by value. The reference still points to that original object.

Hence if I return that t from a method and then invoke a further method on it, it invokes the method on the Trade that it originally pointed to.
