Why "rhetorical"? You seem to imply that "pointer" and "memory address" are synonymous. But this is not necessarily the case even though personally I tend to also use it that way. <pssst>I think Lew enjoys it from time to time to prove someone wrong who claims there are no pointers in Java because it is often surprising for Java programmers to find that p-word in the JLS. :-)</pssst> >> It only has pointers for reference types > > Weasel words, I don't believe that you actually believe that. Why and why? There is nothing weaselish about quoting the JLS. Do you have a definition of the Java language with higher authority that does not contain the word "pointer"? > A reference is an abstraction of a pointer, [...] I think most people in software engineering actually use the terms the way you have presented them here which is also reflected in the article about pointers on wikipedia. That does not preclude other usages in specific context so the heads up of Lew is actually in order to keep us alert and use terms consciously.
