Load controller from module hmvc codeigniter

I have my normal mvc directory's at codeigniter like:

  • Models
  • Views
  • Controllers

But I use the wiredesigz "plugin" for hmvc support, so I have this structure:

  • Models
  • Views
  • Controllers
  • Modules
    • TestModule
      • Models
      • Views
      • Controllers

I have this code at my root controllers folder:

class Core_Test_Controller extends MX_controller
{
    public function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();
    }

    public function getText() {
        return "hi";
    }
}

And this at the /Modules/TestModule/Controllers:

   class InsertController extends MX_Controller
    {
        public function __construct(){
            parent::__construct();
        }

       function testIt{
           $coreTestController = new $this->Core_Test_Controller();
           $text = $coreTestController->getText();
           print_r($text);
        }
    }

But I get the error that class Core_Test_Controller is not found. Why can't I acces that controller from another controller? Is this even possible?

Fixed it:

Modules::load('../Core_Test_Controller/')->getText();

First off lower case for folder names. Only first letter must be upper case for controller names and models etc UCFIRST as explained here http://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/general/styleguide.html#file-naming HMVC wont pick up CI_Controllers controllers only MX_Controllers

class Core_test_controller extends MX_controller {...}

class Insertcontroller extends MX_Controller {...}

As said here

<?php
/** module and controller names are different, you must include the method name also, including 'index' **/
modules::run('module/controller/method', $params, $...);

/** module and controller names are the same but the method is not 'index' **/
modules::run('module/method', $params, $...);

/** module and controller names are the same and the method is 'index' **/
modules::run('module', $params, $...);

/** Parameters are optional, You may pass any number of parameters. **/
