v2.5.9 - Aug 16, 2017

This release fixes a couple regression introduced by
v2.5.7 and v2.5.8.

Specifically, AbstractHydrator#hydrateAll() was raising
E_NOTICE errors due to it not being registered with the
EventManager, yet trying to remove itself from the
registered listeners. #6623

In addition to that, having embeddable final classes
would cause errors being raised while trying to generate
proxies. The ORM will no longer attempt to generate proxies
for embeddables. #6625

Total issues resolved: 3

    6623: Ensure that AbstractHydrator#hydrateAll() detaches the hydrator from the event manager thanks to @echo511
    6625: Proxy generation for embedded/transient classes thanks to @bendavies
    6626: #6625 Skip proxy generation for embeddable classes thanks to @issei-m


v2.5.8 - Aug 13, 2017

This release solves a bug introduced while backporting
#6464 and #6475.
Specifically, a dangling undefined variable remained in the
code, causing some SqlWalker functionality to misbehave.
The undefined variable wasn't noticed due to it being placed
in an empty() expression.

Total issues resolved: 1

    6621: Fixed usage of undefined variable in empty() expression in SqlWalker thanks to @Powerhamster


v2.5.7 - Aug 11, 2017

This release fixes a number of bugs detected in the current stable
release of the ORM.

This patch introduces compatibility with Doctrine DBAL 2.6.x. #6580

The most critical issue being fixed is a bug
in Doctrine\ORM\PersistentCollection, causing duplicate data
to be persisted when a collection is both marked as initialized
and dirty, and more entries are added to it via
the Doctrine\Common\Collections\Collection#add()
API. #6613 #6614
#6616

The return value of Doctrine\ORM\PersistentCollection#removeElement()
was sometimes an object or null, causing some applications to crash when PHP is run within the context ofdeclare(strict_types=1);` #6550

Memory leak issues with the hydrator process were fixed: the
hydrator object was never being garbage collected due to it
being registered with a Doctrine\Common\EventManager instance
to listen for the Doctrine\ORM\Events::onClear event. #1515

The Doctrine\ORM\Tools\Pagination\CountOutputWalker was producing
invalid SQL for queries containing a GROUP BY clause. #6243

The SQL generated for a DQL query containing a JTI (Joined Table
Inheritance) selection and a WITH clause applied to a JOIN
condition was invalid on PostgreSQL. #6475

The Doctrine\ORM\Tools\Console\MetadataFilter was not detecting
all metadata matching the filter regular expression. #5715

The Doctrine\ORM\Tools\SchemaTool was raising notices due to
invalid lookup for a discriminator column length, which may
not be defined in all mappings. #5798

Total issues resolved: 18

    1515: DDC-3146 Remove onClear event listener from abstract hydrator in cleanup function, otherwise causing hydrator GC to not kick in thanks to @emiel-silverstreet
    1541: Type annotation correction in ResultSetMappingBuilder#addJoinedEntityFromClassMetadata() $relation (should be string) thanks to @aleeeftw

    6616: #6613 #6614 correct handling of new elements added to an initialized (yet dirty) collection thanks to @Ocramius


v2.5.6 - Dec 19, 2016

This release relaxes doctrine/common requirements
in order to allow installation of versions that support PHP 7.1 features in proxy class
generation. Please note that a similar requirement relaxation still needs to be applied to
doctrine/dbal in order to allow installation of
the latest doctrine/common versions. #6156

This version also backports some fixes around the eviction of the second level cache entries
of inverse side associations in one-to-many - many-to-one mappings. #6159

Further fixes were applied in order to have child classes in inheritance mapping share the
same timestamp region when the second level cache is enabled. #6028

Also, Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager#merge() now triggers Doctrine\ORM\Events::prePersist
listeners with the merged entity state whenever an internal Doctrine\ORM\UnitOfWork#persist()
call is implied. #6177.

Total issues resolved: 8

    5570: Fix PrePersist EventListener when using merge instead of persist
    6028: Make child entity share the timestamp region with parent class
    6110: Clear $this->collection even when empty, to reset keys
    6156: Allow doctrine/common 2.7
    6159: #5821 Backport #1551 - Fixed support for inverse side second level cache
    6174: Merging a new entity with PrePersist event make changes in callback not be considered
    6177: Fix #6174 #5570: merging new entities should also trigger prepersist lifecycle callbacks with merged entity data
    6178: Backport #6177 - fix #6174 #5570: merging new entities should also trigger prepersist lifecycle callbacks with the merged data


v2.5.5 - Sep 10, 2016

    Embeddable classes are now allowed in inheritance trees 4097
