关于对象的引用

一个变量a引用一个被实例化的对象Human1,另一个变量b初始化时将a的值赋给b，即b = a;含义为b的引用对象为a的引用对象（Human1），a和b都指向Human1,此时Human的实例化对象总个数只有一个。而不是复制一个Human1 ，然后b再指向该复制。

ps:此处引用和指向一个意思。

package com.structure;

public class Human {
	private String sex;
	private int age;
	public String getSex() {
		return sex;
	}
	public void setSex(String sex) {
		this.sex = sex;
	}
	public int getAge() {
		return age;
	}
	public void setAge(int age) {
		this.age = age;
	}
	public void display(){
		System.out.println("sex:" + sex + ",age" + age);
	}
	public static void main(String[] args){
		Human hm  = new Human();
		hm.setAge(16);
		hm.setSex("male");
		hm.display();
		Human hm2 = hm;
		hm2.display();
		System.out.println("----------------------");
		System.out.println("the boy grows up");
		hm.setAge(17);
		hm.display();
		hm2.display();
		System.out.println("----------------------");
		System.out.println("the boy becomes a girl");
		Human hm3  = new Human();
		hm3.setAge(17);
		hm3.setSex("female");
		hm = hm3;
		hm.display();
		hm2.display();
		hm3.display();
		System.out.println("----------------------");
		int a = 6;
		int b = a;
		System.out.println("a = " + a + ",b = " + b);
		System.out.println("----------------------");
		a = 7;
		System.out.println("a = " + a + ",b = " + b);
		System.out.println("----------------------");
	}
}

根据万物皆对象的思想上述理解同样适用于基础类型
