module ActiveSupport # The Inflector transforms words from singular to plural, class names to table names, modularized class names to ones without, # and class names to foreign keys. The default inflections for pluralization, singularization, and uncountable words are kept # in inflections.rb. # # The Rails core team has stated patches for the inflections library will not be accepted # in order to avoid breaking legacy applications which may be relying on errant inflections. # If you discover an incorrect inflection and require it for your application, you'll need # to correct it yourself (explained below). module Inflector extend self # By default, +camelize+ converts strings to UpperCamelCase.
