According to 'Agile web development with rails' "... a model is automatically mapped to a database table whose name is the plural form of the model's class". Sure enough, when I created migrations for 'Tc_project', 'Tc_employee' and 'Tc_period' the migration files issue a 'create table' with the table names pluralized. However, when I issue "Rails generate scaffold Tc_data..." the create table statement in the migration DID NOT pluralize 'tc_data' to 'tc_datas'!
Does anyone know if this will create a 'convention' problem between model and table references for the table 'Tc_data'? Unless I hear otherwise I will assume Rails knows what it is doing and run the migration as-is and proceed as if nothing is out of the ordinary. If Rails chokes on this I will post a reply to my own question.
Thanks in advance for any help. Fred
