BOM Native Type or Primitive Type Object to Business Object Attribute
Assigning a BOM Native Type or Primitive Type object to a Business Object attribute is by value:
car.make = bus.make;
bus.make = "Ford" // will not affect car.make
person1.age = person2.age;
person2.age = person2.age + 1; // Will not increment person1.age
person1.dob = DateTimeUtil.createDate("1968-01-04");
person2.dob = person1.dob;
person2.dob.setYear(1970); // Value now 1970-01-04; person1.dob
// is still 1968-01-04
