memory allocation of value types and reference types in .net framework

Question

Is there an advanced article which I can read that can explain how memory is allocated for different types (value and reference) in .net framework.

for example we kn

It's more complicated than you might think. Even your claim that "value types are allocated on the stack" isn't correct. For example:

class Foo
{
    int x;
}

int is a value type, but the value for x will always be on the heap because it will be stored with the rest of the data for the instance of Foo which is a class.

Additionally, captured variables for anonymous functions and iterator blocks make life trickier.

I have an article about C# heap/stack memory you may find useful, but you might also want to read Eric Lippert's blog post on "The stack is an implementation detail". In particular, a future C# compiler could decide to store all of its local variables on the heap, using the stack just to hold a reference to an instance created at the start of the method... that wouldn't defy the C# spec at all.
