Class UnderscoreTableNameConverter

java.lang.Object
net.java.ao.schema.CanonicalClassNameTableNameConverter
net.java.ao.schema.UnderscoreTableNameConverter
All Implemented Interfaces:
TableNameConverter
public final class UnderscoreTableNameConverter extends CanonicalClassNameTableNameConverter

Imposes an underscore word-separation convention on table names. This will convert entity names in the following way:

Entity Name Table Name
Person person
LicenseRegistration license_registration
Volume4 volume_4
Company company

This converter allows for both all-lowercase and all-uppercase table name conventions. For example, depending on the configuration, LicenseRegistration may convert to "LICENSE_REGISTRATION".

This converter, coupled with PluralizedTableNameConverter is all that is required to emulate the ActiveRecord table name conversion.
