Hey guys,

i try to store the ci instance in a library variable when i contruct the it, but i doesnt work. i tried everything but cant solve it by myself. hope you can help!

Code:
class My_library{

 public $CI = null;

 function construct(){

  $this->CI =& get_instance();

 }

 public function foo(){

  // doesnt work, showing im trying to use a method of a non-object

  $this->CI->load->model('model_name');

  // this works fine

  $CI =& get_instance();

  $CI->load->model('model_name');

 }

}

greets

you construct function is wrong. it should be: function __construct() not: function construct().

notice the two underscores.
