# By default, the prefix is the empty string.

module ClassMethods
# Guesses the table name (in forced lower-case) based on the name of the class in the
# inheritance hierarchy descending directly from ActiveRecord::Base. So if the hierarchy
# looks like: Reply < Message < ActiveRecord::Base, then Message is used
# to guess the table name even when called on Reply. The rules used to do the guess
# are handled by the Inflector class in Active Support, which knows almost all common
# English inflections. You can add new inflections in config/initializers/inflections.rb.
#
# Nested classes are given table names prefixed by the singular form of
# the parent's table name. Enclosing modules are not considered.
#
# ==== Examples
#
# class Invoice < ActiveRecord::Base
# end
#
# file class table_name
# invoice.rb Invoice invoices
#
# class Invoice < ActiveRecord::Base
# class Lineitem < ActiveRecord::Base
# end
# end
#
# file class table_name
# invoice.rb Invoice::Lineitem invoice_lineitems
#
# module Invoice
# class Lineitem < ActiveRecord::Base
# end
# end
#
# file class table_name
# invoice/lineitem.rb Invoice::Lineitem lineitems
#
# Additionally, the class-level +table_name_prefix+ is prepended and the
# +table_name_suffix+ is appended. So if you have "myapp_" as a prefix,
# the table name guess for an Invoice class becomes "myapp_invoices".
# Invoice::Lineitem becomes "myapp_invoice_lineitems".
#
# You can also set your own table name explicitly:
#
# class Mouse < ActiveRecord::Base
# self.table_name = "mice"
# end
#
# Alternatively, you can override the table_name method to define your
# own computation. (Possibly using super to manipulate the default
# table name.) Example:
#
# class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
# def self.table_name
# "special_" + super
# end
# end
# Post.table_name # => "special_posts"
def table_name
reset_table_name unless defined?(@table_name)
@table_name
end
# Sets the table name explicitly. Example:
#
# class Project < ActiveRecord::Base
# self.table_name = "project"
# end
#
# You can also just define your own self.table_name method; see
# the documentation for ActiveRecord::Base#table_name.
