Say I have something like:
class Foo { static mapping = { table \'foo_table\' } }
How can I get the name of foo_table
foo_table
JamesA's answer will work, but only if table name if defined explicitly, like in the question.
If you wish to get a table name whether or not it was specified in mapping, it can be done using SessionFactory:
SessionFactory
def tableName = sessionFactory.getClassMetadata(Foo).tableName
