Doctrine Regular vs Fetch join

in doctrine, whats the diff between regular and fetch join? i dont get it just by reading the docs.

// regular
$query = $em->createQuery("SELECT u FROM User u JOIN u.add开发者_StackOverflowress a WHERE a.city = 'Berlin'");
$users = $query->getResult();

// fetch
$query = $em->createQuery("SELECT u, a FROM User u JOIN u.address a WHERE a.city = 'Berlin'");
$users = $query->getResult();

whats the purpose of fetch join? if i select u, a why am i just getting users ($users = $query->getResult();)? if i use a regular join, i can probably use $user->getAddresses() to access the related objects?

I think the docs describe it pretty well. If you use a fetch join, the related entities will be included in the hydrated result. Otherwise they won't, and if you then try to access them it'll fire off another query to get the information.

It's simply a matter of whether or not it should be included in the results.
