I want to retrieve the original table name the entity mapped with from an entity instance. For example, a "Customer" entity is mapped to a table named "cust", I want to get back the table name "cust" from a Customer entity. Any methods I can do so?

Thank you very much!!

adapter or selfservicing?

adapter

Derive a class from DataAccessAdapter and add a method which calls the base class' method GetFieldPersistenceInfos(name). The received fieldpersistenceinfo objects contain the name of the table field each field is mapped on (fields[index] corresponds with fieldpersistenceinfoObjects[index]
