    /**

    public function getId()
    {
        return $this->id;
    }

    /**

     */
    public function setRole($role)
    {
        $this->role = $role;
    }

    /**

     */
    public function getRole()
    {
        return $this->role;
    }
     public function setDenominacion($denominacion)
    {
        $this->denominacion = $denominacion;
    }

    /**
     * Get denominacion
     *
     * @return string 
     */
    public function getDenominacion()
    {
        return $this->denominacion;
    }

    public function __toString() {
        return $this->denominacion;
    }
}

Please HELP, i don't know what i'm doing wrong?

I need to administrate ROLES, that's why i have the entity.

In the Rol entity

rol has ROLE_ADMIN, ROLE_USER... denominacion is Super Admin, Admin, User, etc... I need to retreive ROL

Answer 1

Function getRoles() in Usuario should return an array of role names. Why yours is empty?

public function getRoles()
{
    return $this->roles->map(function($r) { return $r->getRole(); })
        ->toArray();
}

Usuario has a many to one relation with role. Are you sure this is correct? The above example assumes that you have a collection of roles.
