What is the base class for all data types in C#.NET?
Object is the base class for all data types in C#. The Object Type is the ultimate base class for all data types in C# Common Type System (CTS). The object is an alias for System.Object class.
When a value type is converted to object type, it is called boxing and on the other hand, when an object type is converted to a value type, it is called unboxing.
The following is an example showing the usage of object data types −
using System; using System.IO; namespace Demo { class objectClass { public int x = 56; } class MyApplication { static void Main() { object obj; obj = 96; Console.WriteLine(obj); obj = new objectClass(); objectClass newRef; newRef = (objectClass)obj; Console.WriteLine(newRef.x); } } }
