Hi.  I'm using Apex 4.2. When I compile and it reaches a record type, I get
this warning:

"<record name> is passed by copy, but it was passed by reference in releases
prior to Apex 4.2; this may cause incompatibilities"

What does this mean and why is it telling me.  It seems like record types
would be fairly common and its extreemly annoying getting this message all
the time.

Thanks,
Nelson
