Created Date objects are frozen with Object.freeze() in constructor and thus immutable.

Static Public Methods
public static fromStandardDate(standardDate: global.Date): Date source
Create a Date object from the given standard JavaScript Date.
Hour, minute, second, millisecond and time zone offset components of the given date are ignored.
NOTE: the function toStandardDate and fromStandardDate are not inverses of one another. fromStandardDate takes the Day, Month and Year in local time from the supplies JavaScript Date object, while toStandardDate creates a new JavaScript Date object at midnight UTC. This incongruity will be rectified in 6.0 If your timezone has a negative offset from UTC, creating a JavaScript Date at midnight UTC and converting it with fromStandardDate will result in a Date for the day before.
Params:
| Name | Type | Attribute | Description |
| standardDate | global.Date | The standard JavaScript date to convert. |
