  <pre><code>function __autoload($class)
  {
   if(strpos($class, 'CI_') !== 0)
   {
    @include_once( APPPATH . 'core/'. $class . EXT );
   }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, once I installed composer (in order to use Eloquent), this funcitonality no longer works. Any ideas?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
