I\'m working in the Symfony2 framework and wondering when would one use a Doctrine subscriber versus a listener. Doctrine\'s documentation for listeners is very clear, howe
Don't know whether it is done accidentally or intentionally.. But subscribers have higher priority that listeners - https://github.com/symfony/symfony/blob/master/src/Symfony/Bridge/Doctrine/DependencyInjection/CompilerPass/RegisterEventListenersAndSubscribersPass.php#L73-L98
From doctrine side, it doesn't care what it is (listener or subscriber), eventually both are registered as listeners - https://github.com/doctrine/common/blob/master/lib/Doctrine/Common/EventManager.php#L137-L140
This is what I spotted.
