In Java sometimes method parameters act like passed by reference, even though they are not. what method are they passed by?

I know java is always passed by value. But is it possible that it could act like pass by reference

  • The reference variable(usually an instance of a class) stores the memory address of the object, not the object itself. So, if you pass an object as a parameter, the method copies the 'address' of the variable. That's why it looks like passing by reference. – March3April4 Sep 28 '17 at 05:15

All parameters are passed by value.
