Validator AnnotationLoader needs configuring before annotation classes can be loaded

[jxmallett]

I'm using the Validator as a stand-alone component (ie I'm not using the full Symfony framework).

On the Loading Resources page it says I can use Annotation mapping by simply calling enableAnnotationMapping().

I was getting an error The annotation "@Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints\NotBlank" in property MyClasss::$myProperty does not exist, or could not be auto-loaded.

I tried adding the telling the registry about the Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints namespace and directory but had no luck as it looks for $dir/Symfony/Component/Validator/Constraints/NotBlank.php instead of $dir/NotBlank.php.

I ended up telling the AnnotationRegistry about my autoloaders:

foreach (spl_autoload_functions() as $autoloader) {
    \Doctrine\Common\Annotations\AnnotationRegistry::registerLoader($autoloader);
}

Should this be added to the documentation or am I doing something wrong?
