All reference types are already pointers. Rather than setting the "next" field to a point, you just set it equal to the actual object that would be next.

As Peter has said, all references in C# are really pointers under the skin,
you just don't need to dereference them.
..NET 2.0 has a LinkedList<T> class already, so you may not need to do your
own unless you want to do it as a learning experience.
Otherwise, rolling your own is as simple as this :
public class Node
{
private object data;
private Node next;
public object Data
{
get { return data; }
set { data = value; }
}
public Node Next
{
get { return next; }
set { next = value; }
}
...
}
public class LinkedList
{
private Node first;
private Node last;
...
public void Add(Node node)
{
if (first == null)
{
first = node;
last = first;
}
else
{
last.Next = node;
last = node;
}
}
}
.... or something like that.

Hi Pohihihi,
Did you check "unsafe" :

The point is that you don't need pointers to implement linked lists in
managed code. Unsafe won't be of great help either, the types a pointer in
C# can point to is somewhat limited, for instance you cannot point to
references or structures that contain references and that's what you need to
implement linked lists of arbitrary managed types.

The .Net 2.0 platform has a very nice Generic LinkedList class which can be
used straight out of the box, BTW.

Hi,
What was wrong with the previous answers ? If you insist on using
pointers, you can use unsafe. If references are good, you can write
your own list or use one of the .net lists.
