title: How to enable ENUMs in Symfony 2 / Doctrine
body: <p>When running <code>doctrine:mapping:import</code> i get an error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Unknown database type enum requested, Doctrine\DBAL\Platforms\MySqlPlatform may not support it.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>It seems I need to set <code>use_native_enum</code> to <code>true</code> some how. However, all documentation and blog posts are refering to Symfony &lt; 1.4. Is there any what would be the solution in Symfony 2? </p>
