Look here: http://www.codeigniter.com/userguide3/general/creating_libraries.html#utilizing-codeigniter-resources-within-your-library
Soo.. for example:
PHP Code:
class extLib3 {
private $ci;
public function __construct()
{
//Getting CI instance (the =& is important and not a typo, because you want the original, not a copy (assigning by reference))
$this->ci =& get_instance();
//Load database
$this->ci->load->database();
}
}
