RenameClass

Description

Renames the specified class.

All objects assigned to the class being renamed are updated.

PROCEDURE RenameClass(
				className : STRING;
				newName   : STRING);
def vs.RenameClass(className, newName):
    return None

Parameters

Name Type Description
className STRING Existing name of the class.
newName STRING New name for the class.

Remarks

It seems that when you try to rename a class to a class name that already exist, VW will create a new class with name, followed with "-2" or in case that the class name ends with a number, the number + 1.

Examples

BEGIN
IF kDebug THEN Writeln ('Renamed : ','New ',NewClass[I,1],' Old ',ExistClass[(ClassMaping[I,1]),1]);
RenameClass(ExistClass[(ClassMaping[I,1]),1],NewClass[I,1]);
{ClassVisi := GetCVis(ExistClass[(ClassMaping[I,1]),1]);
Case ClassVisi of
	0: ShowClass(ExistClass[(ClassMaping[I,1]),1]);
	1:HideClass(ExistClass[(ClassMaping[I,1]),1]);

IF NOT stillUsed THEN RenameClass (oldClass, newClass)
ELSE NameClass (newClass);
import vs

# Renames the specified class.
className = 'None'
newName = 'Example'

vs.RenameClass(className, newName)
