This release relaxes [`doctrine/common`](https://github.com/doctrine/…

…common) requirements

in order to allow installation of versions that support PHP 7.1 features in proxy class
generation. Please note that a similar requirement relaxation still needs to be applied to
[`doctrine/dbal`](https://github.com/doctrine/dbal) in order to allow installation of
the latest `doctrine/common` versions. [doctrine#6156](doctrine#6156)

This version also backports some fixes around the eviction of the second level cache entries
of inverse side associations in one-to-many - many-to-one mappings. [doctrine#6159](doctrine#6159)

Further fixes were applied in order to have child classes in inheritance mapping share the
same timestamp region when the second level cache is enabled. [doctrine#6028](doctrine#6028)

Also, `Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager#merge()` now triggers `Doctrine\ORM\Events::prePersist`
listeners with the merged entity state whenever an internal `Doctrine\ORM\UnitOfWork#persist()`
call is implied. [doctrine#6177](doctrine#6177).

Total issues resolved: **8**

- [6028: Make child entity share the timestamp region with parent class](doctrine#6028)

- [6178: Backport doctrine#6177 - fix doctrine#6174 doctrine#5570: merging new entities should also trigger prepersist lifecycle callbacks with the merged data](doctrine#6178)

This release includes a big amount of bugfixes.

Specifically, following issues were fixed:

 * Embeddable classes are now allowed in inheritance trees [4097](doctrine#4097)
 * Removed some object hash collisions caused by entity merging [1465](doctrine#1465)

Doctrine ORM 2.5.0 Release

==========================

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/doctrine/doctrine2.svg?branch=v2.5.0)](https://travis-ci.org/doctrine/doctrine2)

We are happy to announce the immediate availability of Doctrine ORM `2.5.0`.

This release spans over almost 2 years of development, and is a major effort
by the team and the community to make the ORM more robust and performing.

[457 issues](http://www.doctrine-project.org/jira/browse/DDC-3322?jql=project%20%3D%20DDC%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%202.5%20ORDER%20BY%20status%20DESC%2C%20priority%20DESC) were solved in this release,
so we are very proud of the work being done by the community and the core team.

Doctrine ORM 2.5.0 comes with a set of major improvements:

 * The Second Level Cache, a component that greatly improves ORM performance
 * Embeddable classes, allowing for a more fine-grained design of your entities without having
   to resort to one-to-one associations for Value Objects
 * Entity type specific event listeners, for improved event handling performance
 * Improvements in the Criteria Collection filtering API, now also supporting `EXTRA_LAZY` filtering

Some Backwards incompatible changes were also involved in this release: to read them, along with
a more extensive list of the 2.5.0 changes, please consult
[the upgrade notes](http://docs.doctrine-project.org/en/latest/changelog/migration_2_5.html).

We currently do not have a release schedule for Doctrine ORM `2.6.0`.

As of today, Doctrine ORM `2.5.x` is our stable distribution, and will receive regular bugfix releases.

Doctrine ORM `2.4.8` will be the last bugfix release for the `2.4.x` series. Further releases will only
occur in the eventuality of a security issue being discovered.

We will also keep patching previous versions of the ORM in the eventuality of a security issue being
discovered.

You can install this version of the ORM by using Composer and the
following `composer.json` contents:

```json

{
    "require": {
        "doctrine/orm": "2.5.0"
    }
}
```
