In your meta mapper, if you override dbAddTable to return Full[() => Unit],
that function will be called after all the modifications have been made to
the tables, if your table was added as part of Schemifier's changes.

You'd probably do something like:
object MyTable extends MyTable with MetaMapper[MyTable] {
private val myArray = Array("foo", "bar")
private val writeToNewTable() {
for (s <- myArray) {
create.columnForString(s).save
}
}
override def dbAddTable = Full(writeToNewTable _)
}
Does this help?
