Question:

I have a field in database (Time) with this value 09:00:00.

I created the Entity and with Time Field

/** * @var \DateTime * * @ORM\Column(name="m_01_ch", type="time") */ private $m_01_ch;

In my controller I retrieve the element and when I do:

$val = $myentity->getM01Ch();

My value is (in XDebug)

$val = {DateTime}[3] date= "2015-07-08 09:00:00.000000" timezone_type = 3 timezone "Europe/Rome"

If I get $val->date I have All the Date, but I want to get only 09:00:00 Can I take my "original" value without use Regex etc?

You can modify your entity where you are returning your value. In your function getM01Ch() do something like this

/** * @return \DateTime */ public function getM01Ch() { $returnValue = $this->m_01_ch->format('h:i:s') return $returnValue }

Other than that I don't know if any better approach exists. More <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/30381309/4841794" rel="nofollow">info</a>
