Jira issue originally created by user cloun:

I've found little error in the class Doctrine\ORM\PersistentCollection in method toArray. There is lost calling of _initialize method probably. This leads to abnormal behavior:

class Role
{
...
/****

@ManyToMany(targetEntity="Resource")
@JoinTable(name="access",
joinColumns={@JoinColumn(name="role_id", referencedColumnName="role_id")},
inverseJoinColumns={@JoinColumn(name="resource_id", referencedColumnName="resource_id")}
)
*/
private $resources;
public function makeTest()
{
echo count($this->resources->toArray()) . "\n";
echo count($this->resources) . "\n";
}
...
}

Output:
0
1
