Add, insert, delete, or edit fields

By calling one of the following edit management functions, the table definition is marked as modified and for the changes to be reflected on the data and index files, you must call AlterTable().

To add a new field at the end of the record definition call AddField(). To insert a new field before an existing field call InsertField(). To delete an existing field call DeleteField().

Most changes relating to fields will trigger the ctdbAlterTable() to perform a full table build.
