Plural Tables Names

This seems like it would be an FAQ, but I can't find the answer to it anywhere.

I have a database where the table names are all plural, but I'd really
prefer that my object names were not.

Is there any way to have Torque create an class called "SiteUser" to
represent the table site_users.

thanks,
Graham

Thanks,

I might try to patch the generator to add a singularize option to
defaultJavaNamingMethod, it seems like a reasonable thing to do,
although I'm not sure how to implement it in a language-independent
manner.

Hi Graham,

you can specify the java name of your table in the schema xml. You can 
specify it using the javaName attribute on the table element. See:

Kind regards,
