Well, everything is not passed by reference in Java. I believe primitives
and immutable types are passed by value. Someone know the exact rules
behind this? I always have to write a little test program to remember.
Okay, I'll stop being pedantic.
I think if you do
public void myFunction(final SomeClass var) {
.. whatever ..
}
Will do what you desire. Not positive though so some of the other wiser
folks on the list might wish to confirm this.
