CakePHP大写表名MySQL

Question

I have a MYSQL table being produced and populated by another program that I have no control over, The problem is that the table name is all upper-case "AFTER_HOURS", and if i use

class ah extends AppModel {
    var $name = 'AFTER_HOUR';
    var $primaryKey = 'ID';
    var $displayField = 'ID';
}?>

i get the error:

Error: Database table a_f_t_e_r__h_o_u_rs for model Ah was not found.

Im still new to cake, how can i resolve this??

THANKS

To specify what table a model should use, do this in your model:

var $useTable = 'AFTER_HOUR';
