Compiler Error C3076

'instance' : you cannot embed an instance of a reference type, 'type', in a native type

A native type cannot contain an instance of a CLR type.

For more information, see C++ Stack Semantics for Reference Types.

Example

The following sample generates C3076.

// C3076.cpp
// compile with: /clr /c
ref struct U {};

struct V {
   U y;   // C3076
};

ref struct W {
   U y;   // OK
};
