Original Pull Request: https://github.com/doctrine/orm/pull/265

State: closed
Merged: No

This patch is going to address: http://www.doctrine-project.org/jira/browse/DDC-93

Embeddable classes are a good way for organizing your domain model. Specially larger systems, which contains similar domain objects with similar properties.
This patch proposes a cleaner way to structure these duplicating attributes (and logic) into an @Embeddable object. Abstract the common information into an @Embeddedable object and use it as @Embedded.

/**
 * @Embeddable
 */
class Location
{
    /** @Column(type="decimal", scale=8, precision=12, nullable=true) */
    protected $latitude;

    /** @Column(type="decimal", scale=8, precision=12, nullable=true) */
    protected $longitude;
}

/**
 * @Entity 
 */
class User
{
    /** @Id @GeneratedValue @Column(type="integer") */
    protected $id;

    // ...

    /** @Embedded(class="Location") */
    protected $location;
}

Querying:

$query = $entityManager->createQuery('SELECT u FROM User u WHERE u.location.latitude = ?1');
