Creating new object in function call

Question

I was wondering if it is safe to create new objects as part of a method (or indeed constructor call)

Such as the convuluted example below:

public class Igloo
{
    public int i = 5;
}

public class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        DoSomething(new Igloo());
    }

    private static void DoSomething(Igloo i)
    {
        Debug.WriteLine(i.i);
    }
}

Is creating temporary objects like this frowned upon? Does the new object that is created get cleaned up properly.

Answer 1

There is nothing wrong with that.

In release mode, creating a variable for the object should end up compiling to the same IL (disclaimer: I haven't checked).
