Hey wiredesignz,

Thanks, fantastic. One quick point - it seems I can not use the get_instance() funtion in a library when the controller has inherited from MX_Controller. Any plans to change this? Or should I be finding a workaround for each of my libraries?

(I raised this in an earlier post, http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/179478/)

Much appreciated,

Kim

With HMVC you need to pass into or set the controller instance for the library before using it.

Code:

$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->form_validation->CI =& $this;

/* or */

$this->load->library('form_validation', array('CI' => $this));

And then process the parameters inside the library constructor yourself.

Thanks, wiredesignz.

I have a doubt: Can I load a config file from a module using application/config/autoload.php $autoload?

Hi wiredesignz,

Another quick point. When I'm not using HMVC, I can access controller properties in a view using $this->variable. As soon as MY_Controller inherits from MX_Controller, however, the property is no longer available.

I've been reading up on the CI object hierarchy, including this article by David Upton, http://www.packtpub.com/article/codeigniter-and-objects, but I'm having difficulty understanding how this changes when we use HMVC...

Any assistance appreciated..., Kim
