PROCEDURE RenameClass(
            className   :STRING;
            newName     :STRING);

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

Parameters

className		STRING		Existing name of the class.
newName		STRING		New name for the class.

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.
