localDataStorage.rename( existingKey, newKey )

This method assigns the value of existingKey to newKey, where the key prefix is prepended to newKey. The existingKey is deleted. Data types are preserved, so if a Float was set then a Float will be returned.

If newKey already exists, an error will be thrown because existing keys cannot be overwritten.

EXAMPLES:

● localData.rename( 'key1', 'key1-1000' )

An event is fired from this method allowing you to monitor the key name change.
