BC Break Report

  - Upgrading doctrine/dbal (3.3.5 => 3.3.7): Extracting archive
  - Upgrading doctrine/orm (2.11.2 => 2.12.3): Extracting archive

Summary

I updated our project from the above versions and now the fields using Enum are in:

$queryBuilder->select('invite.id')
    ->addSelect('invite.someEnum')
    ->addSelect('invite.datetime');

return $queryBuilder->getQuery()->toIterable(); // same for getResult()

Previous behavior

The enum did return the enum string not the enum object.

Current behavior

The enum now returns the enum object.

Which ends when being serialized with JMS serializer into and breaks so the APIs:

                 "id": 7,
-                "state": "inactive",
-                "type": "pkpass"
+                "state": {
+                    "name": "INACTIVE",
+                    "value": "inactive"
+                },
+                "type": {
+                    "name": "PKPASS",
+                    "value": "pkpass"
+                }

How to reproduce

Create a field with enum and select it in previous and current version.
