My Codeigniter Observations

Great post!! Very useful tips, they seem sensible and simple ideas, especially switching to returning objects (which I shall definitively be implementing).

One question for someone coming off a large CI project - how did you manage with finding bugs. The biggest 'problem' I've been having with CI is the lack of a 'stacktrace' type error report. If I have an error in my code I just get a pretty general error page and then have to go through the code and basically manually bug hunt. OK I can put log_message() calls in to try and narrow down where but do you have any other tips or techniques that might help?

Cheers for the great post - will be bookmarking this one!
