Class 'Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints' not found

[ghost]

Using Silex - added the following into composer.json

"require": { "silex/silex": "~1.2", "symfony/security": "~2.6", "doctrine/dbal": "~2.2", "symfony/validator": "~2.6" },

From the documentation: http://silex.sensiolabs.org/doc/providers/validator.html

use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;

I get Fatal error: Class 'Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints' not found

The class does not exist in /vendor/symfony/validator/Symfony/Component/Validator.

I did composer update before attempting to use this.

Please assist.

You are not writing all of what you do, and you need to read up on namespacing and how aliasing namespaces works in php.

This is not a Silex issue.
