write a config file, for example 'myarray.php' then put into 'application/config', then you can write some array on it like...

Code:

<?php defined('BASEPATH') or die('No direct script access allowed');
$config['some_array']    = array(
    'var1' => 'foo',
    'var2' => 'bar',
);

load it in autoloader, on config section like...

Code:

...
$autoload['config'] = array('myarray');
...

Now, try to fetch that array in any controller using...

Code:

var_dump($this->config->item('some_array'));

If you are about loading some data from database (not static resources like aboves), then want it available for any controller, you have several choice.
1. Make a "Base Controller" to load all necessary resource. Then other controller can use that resource by extending your "Base Controller".
2. As i said on your other thread, you can do that by configure some ‘pre_controller’ hook. Write a "Init" class which contain function to load your resource before all controller being called.
3. If you are want more clean and structural app, write some modules to handle that.

The problem is: how to write a modules which build an array from database.then I could read and edit this array in my webapp? I open some autoload class,but when I restart apache server,the log don't output any initialize class log,like Log.php:

Code:

class CI_Session {

    var $sess_encrypt_cookie        = FALSE;


    /**
     * Session Constructor
     *
     * The constructor runs the session routines automatically
     * whenever the class is instantiated.
     */
    public function __construct($params = array())
    {
    log_message('debug', "Session Class Initialized"); //why don't log to logfile?

Why i fell that in your case, 'pre_controller' hook is more than enough? You use module for something more sophisticated than that, like authentification stuff, templating stuff, etc.

Do you mean that this array will be init when every user send a request to server? But I want to this array will be init only once when server start.

There are no such things! Except you are using memcache, CI will send request to your database, everytime you load/init your resources.

Code:

$data = array();

foreach ($your_array() as $key => $value)
{
    $data[$key] = $value;
}

return $data;
