All static fields of classes and structures. If they are of a reference type, the reference is stored in data segment, and the object itself — in the heap.

With C++/CLI, the situation is more complex. This language is unique as it allows for value semantic even for reference types; and the managed references are declared explicitly ('^'). So even the static object of reference type can be stored in the data segment. Only if a static field is represented by the reference to the object of reference type, the reference is stored in the data segment and the object itself in the heap.

Generally, reference-type objects are stored in the heap if gcnew (new for C#) is used.
