The best way also in databases is to create third class, that includes pointer to instances of both classes.

Thats the most efficient way to do it. Or you can still make pointer to some array of objects if you want to. But that is not how programmers do things. Anyways, try to specify question better. Describe the purpose of your code, why you need exactly this type of solution, describe the problem better (you can use examples) + paste simple code.

simply understand class 1 class 2 if class 2 makes change in its class then class 1 algo gets affected like dpendency

i know how things exactly work in programming languages but this task is quite different if you have studied UML association of two classes is done using reference or pointers i must say
