Object of class DateTime could not be converted to string....

[Daniel]

When I have the annotations below in of my entities I get the error
below. If I remove the @ORM\Id part the error goes away. I did not
create this database and I dont even think the date field should be an
Id. This entity was generated by the Symfony command line interface. I
want to understand why this error is occurring.


/**
* @var datetime $date
*
* @ORM\Column(name="date", type="datetime", nullable=false)
* @ORM\Id
* @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="NONE")
*/

A datetime field cannot be used as id in Doctrine as the id has to be
castable as string. This is a known limitation in Doctrine that has been
qualified as "Won't fix" as adding logic to convert them to string would
have a performance impact on all queries.

You can fix it yourself by overriding the DateTime type, creating datetime
subclasses that implement __toString()
