I am working in the structured Paradigm(COBOL) for alomost 10 years.. Now I trying to understand the OO concepts..When I read the book "Thinking in Java " by Bruce Eckel, it talks a lot about "references"
The book says although you treat everything as an object, the identifier you manipulate is actually a "reference " to an object..
In this context what do you mean by identifier? Also can you explain the meaning of reference with a java examples..
It also says if I declare String S, it's a reference
and if I declare String S = new String(); then you created a object ..
Does it mean all instance of a class is reference
Will it be possible to respond to me at saritha_mathai@efunds.com
