How to load a controller from another controller in codeigniter?

Question

I want to load a controller from a function in another controller because the library I integrated to my project I don't want to load it to the controller because I want to keep it clean and related.

I tried using modules but I still had to put controller in the url like

http://example.com/maincontroller/function
http://example.com/othercontroller/function

I have default controller so I can load http://example.com/function so how could I access the controller from a function from main so I don't have to put the controller in the url.

I'm still willing to use HMVC if I can load the controller function from the main controller function.

Answer 1

yes you can (for version 2)

load like this inside your controller

 $this->load->library('../controllers/whathever'); 

and call the following method:

$this->whathever->functioname();
