Modular Extensions - Version 4.3

Hi,

I am just starting with Code Igniter and it's pretty awesome, mighty flexible, and I like the fact that it doesn't try to force too many constraints on me in what I have to use and where.

So I immediately started out porting my personal pet project (PPP) to CI. Being exposed to django before, I 'hacked' (actually I think it's pretty sound) something similar for PHP.

And it actually works pretty good, it is pretty robust, technically speaking...

And of course I found HMVC, which is the best thing since sliced bread for developing modular CI apps, and of course my 'helper' doesn't help here at all.

What happens is that in order to keep the CI features ($this, etc) working, i need to start a new CI->load->view for each file that gets included.

Now what I did until now (and what doesn't seem to break anything yet) is

Code:

$GLOBALS['CI']->load->view($GLOBALS['TI_CURRENT_BASE_TEMPLATE']);

I discovered this only by looking at the $GLOBALS - array...

But this doesn't work from a module, mainly because of the more or less hardcoded view-path in the loaders.

I already tried different things, like walking the callstack to use the last loader again, but I couldn't figure out a way to properly include the base templates of my little helper.

Maybe a customized Loader would do the trick? If you have any idea, please let me know.

There also was a similar request in this thread already:

Best wishes, may life be good to you.
