/**
    The CIMParamValue class represents an extrinsic method parameter value,
    as defined in the DMTF Specification for CIM Operations over HTTP.

    <p>The CIMParamValue class uses a shared representation model, such that
    multiple CIMParamValue objects may refer to the same data copy.  Assignment
    and copy operators create new references to the same data, not distinct
    copies.  An update to a CIMParamValue object affects all the CIMParamValue
    objects that refer to the same data copy.  The data remains valid until
    all the CIMParamValue objects that refer to it are destructed.  A separate
    copy of the data may be created using the clone method.
