Doctrine - ModelClassName not found

Question

I am new to doctrine(using version 1.2) and following the steps given in the documentation manual. I've installed and configured it perfectly. But i have a problem while working with models. I have followed each and every step and have successfully generated the models in the models folder.. but after that when i m using the demo code

  $user = new User();
  $user->username = 'jwage';
  $user->password = 'changeme';

it says..

  Fatal error:  Class 'User' not found in C:\wamp\www\test_doctrine\test.php on line 25

whilst if i check the output of

  Doctrine_Core::loadModels('models');

i get

 Array
(
[BaseUser] => BaseUser
[User] => User
[UserTable] => UserTable
)

how do i get access to the User class??

Doctrine is not loading the base classes. I had faced a similar problem and I solved it by modifying the autoload function wherein I am getting the base class and I require them then and there itself.

You then in the bootstrap.php file, after spl_autoload_register(array('Doctrine', 'autoload'));, you need to Doctrine_Core::loadModels('models');.

This way the base class gets included through the autoload function and the child class (in this case the User Class) can extend it and then you can access it.
