[RESOLVED] objects

this thread has nothing to do with vb in particular

i once had an argument with my class mate over the topic of objects ,when he started talking abt null objects.

i tried to explain it to him that null objects cant exist as objects are defined as instance of a class.(by null objects he meant objects that have nothing in it!!.)
and that theres nothing like null classes.

i want some expert advice on this ambigious topic.

You can have a null reference. A pointer variable that does not point to an object instance.

You cannot have a "null object" - the two terms are mutually exclusive.


also, you are correct in your definition of "object" ;)
