So, this is a interesting question and I haven't noted this earlier.
I was answering on one of the thread and used getGlideObject() to add few years using another field of the same table.
var gr = new GlideRecord('alm_hardware');
gr.query('asset_tag', 'P1000479');
if (gr.next()) {
var warranty = gr.assigned.getGlideObject();
warranty.addYears(1);
gr.install_date=warranty;
gr.setWorkflow(false);
gr.update();
}
The above script looks very innocuous. But instead of updating install date alone, it also updated the assigned date.
Is it because we are actually manipulating on the original glideobject within the current scope instead of a localized value?
