Maybe the compiler could rewrite the above as:
auto t = a.b;
t.c = 3;
a.b = t;
I'd always suspected C# properties did something like this, though it's
been so long since I've used C# now that I'm wondering if it's bad
memory.
Same here, so I just did a little test in Visual C# 2008 Express.
Turns out
that rewriting *is* exactly what C# does.
Code:
--------------------------------------
using System;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
class Program
{
class Rect
{
Change Rect to a struct, try again. Classes are reference types (note,
I don't have a C# compiler handy, so I'm not sure what the result is).
It gives a compiler error, I already posted that somewhere else:
