[clam-devel] Adding and Removing attributes in a DT in a positional way

[David García Garzón]

Xavi is working rigth now in supporting optional attributes in dynamic types 
(configurations) from ipyclam. For that he needs interface to add and remove 
an attribute by index which does not exist (there is a private AddAtttr_ which 
requires the size of the type as second parameter which is too much an 
implementation detail.

I changed AddAttr_ to use the size already stored in the attribute information 
struct and not requiring the size parameter (patch attached). But, still the 
method names are not ready for a public interface. What about:
	void AddAttribute(unsigned i)
	void AddDynamicTypeAttribute(unsigned i)
	void AddAttributeByIndex(unsigned i)
Any thoughs or preferences?

Note to Xavi: If we can take the size from that description table, there is no 
need to implement a chained method as i told you. (me overdesigning again)

David.
