DDC-2031: doctrine:generate:entities - Alternate (scoped) Namespace Syntax not supported

[doctrinebot]

Jira issue originally created by user ilaurillard:

My preferred Syntax:

namespace foo
{
use ...;
class { ... }
}

seems not to be supported.

Setters/Getters are inserted before the last curly closing bracket - but that is the closing Namespace scope!

[~ilaurillard] entities are per-file anyway, you'd have only one namespace.

namespace Foo
{
    use AAA;
    class Bar {}
}

is exactly like writing

namespace Foo
use AAA;
class Bar {}

One namespace per file may be correct, but only considering autoloading issues.
Have a look to the symfony "bootstrap.php.cache" file for an example of multiple namespace and classes.
Doctrine should have a similar "compiling" option.

I know of the standard syntax - thats why i wrote: "my preferred syntax".

I just may live with the standard syntax - you may want to at least mention in the docs that you have to use standard syntax, else your compiled entities fatal.

[~ilaurillard] not really sure classcache is doctrine's problem. Playing with reflection, any third party (Symfony2 here) can handle that without string concat

@marco The issue is not about creting a class cache but about editing entities with the EntityGenerator when the code uses the syntax with braces.

Comment created by @Ocramius:

[_{stof] yes, but I think the code generator becomes quite too complex when we add all these details... What I was thinking is that using an alternate syntax to ease the task [}ilaurillard] exposed as an example is anyway a bit weak. I don't see this coming without code generation projects going on first.

Alternate code generators project is not yet on roadmap.
