This is what I would like to use:
#[ORM\Column(type: "string")]
instead of this:
/**
* @ORM\Column(type="string")
*/
But I'm getting this error:
(error: Class 'Column' is not annotated with 'Attribute' )
Is it because Doctrine does not support it yet, or am I missing something?
EDIT: Doctrine 2.9 is now released with PHP 8 attributes support!
PHP 8 annotations have been merged in Doctrine ORM 2.9.x branch which is not released yet:
https://github.com/doctrine/orm/pull/8266
Here is the documentation reference related to this feature: https://www.doctrine-project.org/projects/doctrine-orm/en/current/reference/attributes-reference.html
As @Seb33300 says, yes, it's now possible in Doctrine ORM 2.9. But for Symfony you need to do a little bit more than that. Here is a full list of steps to upgrade:
Upgrade Doctrine ORM: "doctrine/orm": "^2.9".
Upgrade Doctrine Bundle: "doctrine/doctrine-bundle": "^2.4".
Set doctrine.orm.mappings.App.type: attribute (by default it's set to annotation):
# config/packages/doctrine.yaml
doctrine:
orm:
mappings:
App:
type: attribute
