I created a fixtures for two related entities. When trying to load the fixtures with
php app/console doctrine:fixtures:load
I always get this error:
Fatal error: Class '[MyNamespace]\Entity\ArrayCollection' not found in [...]
It references this bit of code in my entity:
public function __construct()
{
$this->products = new ArrayCollection();
}
When I uncomment the line in the function, all database records and their relations are created fine in my DB (MySQL).
What is going wrong here and what can be done to fix this?
TIA Matt
