Talk:AceDB-3.0 API Documentation

From WowAce Wiki

Question on the Data Types section. It currently says "There are 8 different data types an AceDB-3.0 object can handle." and proceeds to list 8 different items. But those 8 items appear to actually represent the different scopes available to the database. I was expecting it to be a list actual data types, you know, like String, Int, Float, etc... Any chance we can get some clarification on what exactly is meant by 'data types' and how it applies to development?

I also agree with the above comment. But, could somebody please put up some examples on how to actually use AceDB? The tutorials I've been able to find that show any use of this are horrible at actually explaining what they are doing, and are assuming the user will pick up more than should be expected. If I didn't have prior programming experience, I would have no idea what I was doing. I do not know how to work any of these AceDB functions, because there are no examples. Stating what they do doesn't go far enough. So could somebody please post some examples on how to use this? Specifically on dimensioning and setting default values of variables, but only defaaults that will change as the addon is used, and will not default back to their defaults?
