Hello Marco and Herman Peeren.
(sorry to reverting to this post: but the other post are being deleted)
the matter is now resolved: user: Peeran solution worked. i.e
/**
* @ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity="Comment", inversedBy="userFavorites")
* @ORM\JoinTable(name="user_favorite_comments")
**/
private $favorites;
/**
* @ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity="Comment")
* @ORM\JoinTable(name="user_read_comments")
*/
private $commentsRead;
i thank Marcho and Peevan for thier kind help. i will now proceed with the
brilliant tutorials on doctrine 2
warm regards
Paul
