Issue with 2 ODM managers and default mapping

[rivaros]

Have no other way but to ask. I am trying to use 2 PHPCR ODM document managers for my project.

# cmf configuration
doctrine_phpcr:
    # configure the PHPCR session
    ......
    # enable the ODM layer
    odm:
        auto_generate_proxy_classes: %kernel.debug%
        document_managers:
            default:
                session: default
                mappings:
                    MMPGlobalServicesBundle: ~
            secondary:
                session: secondary
                mappings:
                    MMPGlobalServicesBundle: ~
        .....

The problem is that though they have SAME configuration, the complete mapping:info is available only for first one (default). See below:

php app/console doctrine:phpcr:mapping:info

The second one (secondary) has a problem

php app/console doctrine:phpcr:mapping:info --session=secondary
Found 11 documents mapped in document manager:
[OK]   MMP\GlobalServicesBundle\Document\DemoClassContent
[OK]   MMP\GlobalServicesBundle\Document\DemoTemplateContent

[OK]   Doctrine\ODM\PHPCR\Document\Generic
[OK]   Doctrine\ODM\PHPCR\Document\Resource

As you may see all chain of phpcr namespaces (related to PhpcrMappingPass) are not loaded. So I am unable to use the secondary document manager and get consequent errors like

The class 'Symfony\Cmf\Bundle\SimpleCmsBundle\Doctrine\Phpcr\Page' was not found in the chain configured namespaces MMP\GlobalServicesBundle\Document, Doctrine\ODM\PHPCR\Document

intuitively i feel like you should have to specify all the other locations in your second manager, but thats indeed not very user friendly. can you check how is this solved in doctrine orm? do they have some logic to include parent classes in the mapping?

the thing that is particular about the cmf is that many of our bundles provide default models and we register those with doctrine in the bundle configuration with the help of a compilar pass: https://github.com/symfony-cmf/routing-bundle/blob/47be1b0eb96e5ab7db5fa921a0342e38f3915795/src/CmfRoutingBundle.php#L65-L75

i think we could specify more than one manager name - maybe the right fix would be to allow to configure a list of managers https://github.com/symfony-cmf/routing-bundle/blob/47be1b0eb96e5ab7db5fa921a0342e38f3915795/src/DependencyInjection/Configuration.php#L109

do you want to do pull requests to the cmf bundles to add that feature? it needs to be done in a BC way, that is manager_name must still be accepted.

it looks like the orm is doing the same, you don't usually have an entity registered in more than one manager: https://symfony.com/doc/current/doctrine/multiple_entity_managers.html

we certainly should not by default register all documents with all managers. do you want to look further into it or shall we drop the issue?
