@user1333 You're confusing a dereferenced value with the referenced value. The instance in your example, the read-only value, is a Char[]. The value you're changing in the first update statement is content accessed through the reference, not the reference itself.

You can have const with reference types other than string, but the constant can only have the value null.

Is there any other reference type than string that you could use as a constant?
