      #
      #   class Invoice < ActiveRecord::Base
      #     class Lineitem < ActiveRecord::Base
      #     end
      #   end
      #
      #   file                  class               table_name
      #   invoice.rb            Invoice::Lineitem   invoice_lineitems

      # Additionally, the class-level +table_name_prefix+ is prepended and the

      # is no code that raises errors due to having a cached schema in memory at the time the
      # schema migration is run.
      #
      # For example, given a model where you want to drop the "category" attribute, first mark it
      # as ignored:
      #
      #   class Project < ActiveRecord::Base
      #     # schema:

      #
      # The schema still contains "category", but now the model omits it, so any meta-driven code or
      # schema caching will not attempt to use the column:
      #
      #   Project.columns_hash["category"] => nil
      #
      # You will get an error if accessing that attribute directly, so ensure all usages of the
      # column are removed (automated tests can help you find any usages).
