Generating Getters and setters Symfony2 - php

Question

I firstly created the database and then generated the entities from it. After that I generated the getters and setters in the entities using:
php app/console doctrine:generate:entities DigitalManager
Later on I decided to create the association (One to Many) between the entities, so I added the respective commands in my Entities and what I got is this:
Party Entity:

After adding these association commands, I tried to generate the getters and setters for these using:
php app/console doctrine:generate:entities DigitalManager
But it doesn't seem to generate the getters and setters for these associated attributes. I have looked up the syntax through the Symfony2 documentation and it was the same for creating associations. Can anyone please tell me what's wrong here, why does it not generate the getters and setters, although the attributes are there?

Answer 1

It may be trying to read the information from somewhere else. Is there an XML file for the configuration of this entity under Bundle/Resources/config/doctrine/?

Answer 2

There are two process to generate an entity and create a database and so on process.
I think you can do this way
1. create a entity using command
php app/console doctrine:generate:entity
you provide shortcut name Like AcmeHelloBundle. After that it will ask you all the filed name of a table. step by step you create the table.
2. If you not create your database then set database configuration file and run this command
php app/console doctrine:database:create
3. After create the database you need to create the table depending on your entity that create in list 2 and run the folloing command like
php app/console doctrine:schema:update --force
4.Now you can create association with other entity. I just show here create entity but you need to create all entity that need for your project. After perfect association you need to run this command
php app/console doctrine:generate:entities DigitalManager
5. Finnaly you need to perform this command again
php app/console doctrine:schema:update --force
This may work fine.
