Child classes have access to the parent class, but not their siblings. Drivers provide an elegant syntax in your <a href="controllers.html">controllers</a> for libraries that benefit from or require being broken down into discrete classes.</p> - -<p>Drivers are found in the <dfn>system/libraries</dfn> folder, in their own folder which is identically named to the parent library class. Also inside that folder is a subfolder named <kbd>drivers</kbd>, which contains all of the possible child class files.</p> - -<p>To use a driver you will initialize it within a controller using the following initialization function:</p> - -<code>$this->load->driver('<var>class name</var>'); </code> - -<p>Where <var>class name</var> is the name of the driver class you want to invoke. For example, to load a driver named "Some Parent" you would do this:</p> - -<code>$this->load->driver('<var>some_parent</var>');</code> - -<p>Methods of that class can then be invoked with:</p> - -<code>$this->some_parent->some_method();</code> - -<p>The child classes, the drivers themselves, can then be called directly through the parent class, without initializing them:</p> - -<code>$this->some_parent->child_one->some_method();<br /> -$this->some_parent->child_two->another_method();</code> - -<h2>Creating Your Own Drivers</h2> - -<p>Please read the section of the user guide that discusses how to <a href="creating_drivers.html">create your own drivers</a>.</p> - - - -</div> -<!-- END CONTENT --> - - -<div id="footer"> -<p> -Previous Topic: <a href="creating_libraries.html">Creating Libraries</a> - · -<a href="#top">Top of Page</a> · -<a href="../index.html">User Guide Home</a> · -Next Topic: <a href="creating_drivers.html">Creating Drivers</a> -</p> -<p><a href="http://codeigniter.com">CodeIgniter</a> · Copyright © 2006 - 2011 · <a href="http://ellislab.com/">EllisLab, Inc.</a></p> -</div> - -</body> -</html>
