Symfony 2 Doctrine 2 EntityManager config - php

Question

i'm trying to get my Doctrine CommandLine Tool working in Symfony 2 project on Windows 7 and I keep getting the same error message in console:
Fatal error: Call to protected Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager::__construct()
from invalid context in C:\wamp\www\firstSymfonyApp\cli-config.php on line 9
Call Stack:
0.0010 239440 1. {main}() C:\wamp\www\firstSymfonyApp\vendor\doctrine\orm\bin\doctrine.php:0
0.0090 621376 2. require('C:\wamp\www\firstSymfonyApp\cli-config.php') C:\wamp\www\firstSymfonyApp\vendor\doctrine\orm\bin\doctrine.php:48
Code of my cli-config.php file:
<?php
use Doctrine\ORM\Tools\Console\ConsoleRunner;
require_once 'app/bootstrap.php.cache';
$em = new \Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager();
return ConsoleRunner::createHelperSet($em);
Until today, I was only using doctrine on Linux where the installation was much more simple, please help me work this out.

Answer 1

Error message is very clear. EntityManager::__construct is protected method therefore you can't use it outside of the class.
Check out EntityManager::create.
Check this link for more information about how to start with Doctrine 2.
This is probably the snippet which should be important to you right now:
<?php
// bootstrap.php
require_once "vendor/autoload.php";
use Doctrine\ORM\Tools\Setup;
use Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager;
$paths = array("/path/to/entity-files");
$isDevMode = false;
// the connection configuration
$dbParams = array(
'driver' => 'pdo_mysql',
'user' => 'root',
'password' => '',
'dbname' => 'foo',
);
$config = Setup::createAnnotationMetadataConfiguration($paths, $isDevMode);
$entityManager = EntityManager::create($dbParams, $config);
