public class Foo
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
StringBuffer a = new StringBuffer("A");
StringBuffer b = new StringBuffer("B");
operate(a,b);
System.out.println(a+" , "+b);
}
static void operate(StringBuffer x, StringBuffer y)
{
x.append(y);
y = x;
}
}
The code compiles and prints "AB , B".
