Why the Difference?

[Chuck Pelto]

Greetings,

Looking over the tutorial and the example BinaryLink.rb, I notice  
that there is a significant difference between the calls for creating  
the structure of a database in the tutorial and in the BinaryLink.rb  
example.

The tutorial has calls like:

tblPerson = mDatabase.CreateTable( ÒPersonÓ )
call tblPerson.CreateVarCharField( ÒNameÓ, 1022, EVFlag.fIndexed )
call tblPerson.CreateVarCharField( ÒLNameÓ, 1022, EVFlag.fIndexed )
call tblPerson.CreateDateField( ÒBornDateÓ, EVFlag.fIndexed )

Meanwhile, the BinaryLink.rb has calls like:

   name = "tblAdmin"

   comments = new VText("comments", 1024 )
   keywords = new VVarChar("keywords", 504 )
   createDT = new VDateTime("createDT")
   modifyDT = new VDateTime("modifyDT")

The former is in accordance with the new reference manual. The latter  
looks like it's out of the old reference manual.

Why is this the case?
