Doctrine2仅使用对象进行更新

Question

Is there any way to make update with criteria in Doctrine2 without using DQL and Native SQL? I mean only working with objects.

For example something like this:

$data = new Entities\Articles();
$data->setStatus("published");

/*
  Add some criteria for update here 
*/

$em->persist($data);
$em->flush();

What I want to do: Update multiple records without loading them from database.

No, Doctrine ORM does not currently support using the criteria API for updates. Criteria API is currently only available to fetch data, and still at a very early state.

If you can help us improve it, that would be awesome :)

The only currently available ways are through DQL and NativeSQL
