I find it difficult to make a single configuration file (responsible for __autoload ) be used by both the files that are in the root and those in the admin folder.
The root directory contains the folders app , public and admin . The app folder contains the configuration file and the model , view and controller directories.
In the admin folder I want to keep a similar structure with an app folder containing controller and view
The intent is to make files within admin/app/controller access classes through the configuration file contained in raiz/app and this is the only file responsible for including classes. For this, I used the root , raiz/app velop and raiz/app/model folders via set_include_path() ( I use XAMPP).
Well, if the file is calling the class it's in root , or in raiz/app/controller , the class is instantiated, but nothing works in raiz/admin , or raiz/admin/app/controller .
In order to understand how I was doing, I had a configuration file for each folder, as well as an app , model in> and view for each application (horrible for maintenance) and it worked.
