Doctrine custom type: How to load values from config file?

I'm using Doctrine 2 in a Symfony 2 environment.

I've created a custom data type which extends \Doctrine\DBAL\Types\Type. This data type should map an integer value stored in database to a specific string (like ENUM, but integer and string must be accessible).

At the moment the mapping of these values is hardcoded within the doctrine type using a class variable which holds and array.

class xyType extends \Doctrine\DBAL\Types\Type {
  public static $messageTypes = array(
    10 => "Wareneingang",
    20 => "Polstern",
    .
    .
    .
  }

  .
  .
}

Now I want to put this array into the config.yml of this bundle. But I don't know how to use Dependency Injection in this type class, to be able to access my config parameters in any way...

I hope you can help me. I'm also open for other ideas to implement this.

Thx in advance

Yes, you cannot access DI in your type class, but there is bundle initialization stage where you can save your types from config to your static property. So i suggest using YourBundleExtension to solve this.
