Local variables are stored on the stack but any time you use new it will go on the heap afaik:
public void MyFunc(Object a) {
Object b = a; // Variable b is on the stack, pointing at a. b = new Object(); // Memory allocated on heap, referenced by variable b on the stack
}
This is my understanding of it. Please correct me if I am wrong!
