property()
Description
Use this method to map an object property to either a table column with a different name than the property or to a specific SQL function. You only need to use this method when you want to override the default mapping that Wheels performs.
Function Syntax
property(name [, column, sql ])

Examples
<!--- Tell Wheels that when we are referring to `firstName` in the CFML code it should translate to the `STR_USERS_FNAME` column when interacting with the database instead of the default (which would be the `firstname` column) --->
<cfset property(name="firstName", column="STR_USERS_FNAME")>
