Gorm is not bad but I don't think it is an alternative. To start with, the association requires some extra work to save/update which you have to do manually. In doctrine, this is done already.
Documentation, maturity, and community behind doctrine are a lot better.
- atsjie 8y agoFunny this, +/- 6 years ago when I last worked with Doctrine I had the same feeling about Doctrine itself. I thought it was a poor replacement compared to Hibernate / JPA. I'm getting old ;) Obviously things will have matured since then. Doctrine implements the Unit of Work pattern. From what you're saying GORM is more like an Active Record ORM. You're right, that wouldn't make it a good direct alternative.
