Storing a ref in a class

Question

Hi
Is it possile to store a reference to an object in a class, so that if the referenced object is changed in by the class, the object is changed everywhere. This could easily be done with a pointer, but they are a bit dirty i c#.
Here is an example of what I mean:
class MyClass{
public MyClass(ref int RefToObject){
OwnRef = RefToObject;
}
public ref int OwnRef;
}
void main(){
int a = 10;
MyClass b = new MyClass(ref a);
}
I know this won't work, but maybe you can se what I'm trying to do. I want the reference to a stored in b for later mnipulation. Can this be done elegantly perhaps?

In C# there are reference types and there are value types. I am still not sure how to make one or the other but I think that all classes are reference types and most structs are value types. A reference type in C# already works the way you want it to. Perhaps someone else will provide more assistance but otherwise get a book about C# if you need more help. Also read the articles in this web site.

Hi friend
In c# use your pointer coding with in unsafe.I think the below coding will be helpful for your reference,
