Question

return object instance of Proxies\\__CG__\\A

Answer 1

Sometimes we need to respectively determine real class name for an Entity.

Doctrine uses static methods, placed in a helper class: 'Doctrine\Common\Util\ClassUtils', for generating name of proxy class. Here is description: Class ClassUtils.

In case you want to get a real class name, just use:

$entityClassName = ClassUtils::getClass($entityObject);.

I've found this useful for logging of entity data changes (original entity can be determined by id and class name).

Hope it was helpfull.
