ME has its own controller class with that method, and all controllers are extensions of that so they all contain their own instance method.
You are also able to access a CI core class using instance:
Code:
controller::instance('config')->item('base_url');Calling controller methods from inside view - El Forum - 05-30-2008

That sounds quite neat, do you prevent views from calling methods in the top level controller (i.e. not the base module controller, but the controller that has been extended from the module class), or is it a free for all?

the view can only access the controller that loaded it using that method.
But using modules::run() allows you to load and run any controller from any view and return its output, be it a partial or data.
modules::run does not attach the called controller to any object. it simply sits in memory waiting to be re-used.
