The SELECT clause of a DQL query specifies what gets hydrated in
|
|
||||||
the query result. You are always returned usable objects, but any
|
|
||||||
associated objects not included in the SELECT clause will be
|
|
||||||
proxies (ie. unhydrated). They get hydrated by Doctrine when
|
|
||||||
they're read by your code, but that means at least one additional
|
|

database access.

- All objects. For example:
|
**All objects**
|
||||||
``SELECT u, p, n FROM Users u...``
|
|
||||||
In this case, the result array will be made up of objects of
|
|
||||||
the type in the FROM clause. In the example above, the query
|
|
||||||
will return an array of User objects, with associated classes
|
|
||||||
identify else where in the query as 'p' and 'n' hydrated.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- All scalars. For example:
|
.. code-block:: sql
|
||||||
``SELECT u.name, u.address FROM Users u...``
|
|
||||||
In this case, the result will be an array of arrays. In the
|
|
||||||
example above, each element of the result array would be an
|
|
||||||
array of the scalar name and address values.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can select scalars from any entity in the query.
|
SELECT u, p, n FROM Users u...
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In this case, the result will be an array of User objects because of
|
||||||

the FROM clause, with children ``p`` and ``n`` hydrated because of
|
||||||
|
their inclusion in the SELECT clause.
