+
+DQL supports two kinds of joins INNER JOINs and LEFT JOINs. For each joined component, you can optionally specify an alias.

+* The default join type is {{LEFT JOIN}}. This join can be indicated by the use of either {{LEFT JOIN}} clause or simply '{{,}}', hence the following queries are equal:
+
+<code>
+SELECT u.*, p.* FROM User u LEFT JOIN u.Phonenumber
+
+SELECT u.*, p.* FROM User u, u.Phonenumber p
+</code>
+
+The recommended form is the first one.

+* {{INNER JOIN}} produces an intersection between two specified components (that is, each and every record in the first component is joined to each and every record in the second component). So basically {{INNER JOIN}} can be used when you want to efficiently fetch for example all users which have one or more phonenumbers.

+
+By default DQL auto-adds the primary key join condition, so for DQL query:
+
+<code>
+SELECT u.id, p.id FROM User u LEFT JOIN u.Phonenumber
+</code>
+
+Would have a SQL equivalent:
+
+<code>
+SELECT u.id AS u__id, p.id AS p__id FROM User u LEFT JOIN Phonenumber p ON u.id = p.user_id
+</code>
+
+If you want to override this behaviour and add your own custom join condition you can do it with the {{ON}} keyword. Consider the following DQL query:
+
+<code>
+SELECT u.id, p.id FROM User u LEFT JOIN u.Phonenumber ON u.id = 2
+</code>
+
+This query would be converted into SQL:
+
+<code>
+SELECT u.id AS u__id, p.id AS p__id FROM User u LEFT JOIN Phonenumber p ON u.id = 2
+</code>
+
+Most of the time you don't need to override the primary join condition, rather you may want to add some custom conditions. This can be achieved with the {{WITH}} keyword.
+
+DQL:
+<code>
+SELECT u.id, p.id FROM User u LEFT JOIN u.Phonenumber WITH u.id = 2
+</code>
+
+SQL:
+<code>
+SELECT u.id AS u__id, p.id AS p__id FROM User u LEFT JOIN Phonenumber p ON u.id = p.user_id AND u.id = 2
+</code>
