Jira issue originally created by user majkl578:

When I create an alias for entity namespace:

$config->setEntityNamespaces(array(
    'Entities' => 'A\B\Entities',
));

and then use it in association mapping:

/****
 * @ManyToOne(targetEntity="Entities:Foo\Bar")
 */
private $bar;

Then the proxy for the target entity is not generated correctly. It generates proxy class name "Entities:Foo\BarProxy", instead of "ABEntitiesFooBarProxy". It obviously causes Parse error in PHP.

Aliases in targetEntity are not supported and can't be architecture-wise. Aliases only work in DQL Queries or for EntityManager::find() ::getRepository().
