I have the two tables : table A with id as primary key table

  • 0

I have the two tables :

table A with id as primary key

table B with id as primary key and foreign key

Explanation on short:

I need to have in table B a primary key that also to be a foreign key that points to table A‘s primary key.

Can anybody explain me how to map this by annotations in Doctrine 2?

Note:

I tried it By this :

   class A
{
    /**
     * @var bigint $id
     *
     * @Column(name="id", type="bigint", nullable=false)
     * @Id
     * @GeneratedValue(strategy="IDENTITY")
     */
    private $a_id;
...

and B table:


class B
{
    /**
     * @var bigint $id
     * @Id 
     * @OneToOne(targetEntity="A", fetch="LAZY")
     * @JoinColumn(name="id", referencedColumnName="id")
     */
    private $b_id;
...

But it gives me this error:

Uncaught exception
‘Doctrine\ORM\Mapping\MappingException’
with message ‘No identifier/primary
key specified for Entity ‘B’. Every
Entity must have an identifier/primary
key.’ in
/var/www/agr-reg-php/Doctrine/ORM/Mapping/MappingException.php:37
Stack trace:

N.B: I must not have composite primary key.

    Finally I resolved my problem by specifying two fields in my entity class for the same column from real table. The changes are made only in class B (look at the question for class A):

    
    class B
    {
        /**
         * @var bigint $id
         * @Id @Column(name="id", type="bigint", nullable="false")
         */
        private $b_id;
    
        /**
         * @OneToOne(targetEntity="A", fetch="LAZY")
         * @JoinColumn(name="id", referencedColumnName="id")
         */
        private $a;
    
    ...
    

    In fact all what I have done is write two fields in my entity for the same primary key and foreign key.
