Question

How can we execute this query with doctrine in Symfony 2:

SQL:

SELECT p.* FROM messages, (SELECT * from posts ORDER BY created_at DESC) as p GROUP BY p.category_id ORDER BY message.created_at;

Probleme: Every table must be an Entity like MyProjectMyBundle:MyEntity, (SELECT * from posts ORDER BY created_at DESC) is not an Entity…

Symfony 2 (doesnt work):

$query = $em->createQuery('SELECT p.* 
              FROM MyProjectMyBundle:Messages, 
              (SELECT * from posts ORDER BY created_at DESC) as p 
              GROUP BY p.category_id ORDER BY message.createdAt');

Can we include an other query like Mysql? A solution?

Thanks

I believe Doctrine does not allow you to make subqueries inside the From statement. However, you can type regular sql into doctrine.
