Modular extensions hmvd bug with same controller name - El Forum - 03-03-2011

Hi all,
There is a problem with modular extensions.
When I use
Modules::run($moduleName.'/blocks/'.$methodName, $params);
Because I want to use two controllers that have the same name from two different modules, the second call doesn't work because controller already found (Modules::load - variable alias is the same). Then it doesn't work.
Is there a work around?

You cannot have two classes with the same name! This is a PHP rule.
It is not a HMVC bug.

Ok, that's true, I forgot about it.
Then, I think it would be a good idea to name all my class in a module with the module name as prefix.
But then my problem is that the urls will be something like
/mymodule/mymodule_classname/controller
with two times mymodule...
Would it be possible to name the class mymodule_classname, but the url be /mymodule/classname/controller
It is of course possible, but could someone give me some help how to make the change in the source code (where)

Why do you not just give them names that mean something?

Or use module/config/routes.php if you need that functionality.
Code:
$route['mymodule'] = 'mymodule_classname';Modular extensions hmvd bug with same controller name - El Forum - 03-05-2011

Just because the guy writting module x doesn't know the name of all controllers in all other modules that exists or will exist in the future...

Code:
$route['mymodule'] = 'mymodule_classname';I don't really want to update the route file when there is a new module. Is there a rule I can add if I decide that all module names start with "m_" then for example
/m_modulex/blog/index should be routed to /m_modulex/m_modulex_blog/index
but of course that should not impact url not starting with m_
Edit
Sorry, I've just seen, that is in the module itself, so that should do the trick.

Each module can have it's own routes file separate to application/config/routes.php
In any case it looks like your choice of application structure is just creating unnecessary problems. You'll need to figure that out for yourself.

OK
The problem in my application is that I may need to load controllers from different module for partial views, but I must make sure classes have not the same name. So all I see is to prefix all classes with the module name or is there another way?

And forgive me if you thought I was being rude, I was not. I was just trying to explain that you need some kind of structure for working with modules.
You could create a settings table in your database and add a description etc for modules that are in or added to your application.
