Within a module, how to import models outside that module?

In [font="Courier New"]/protected/modules/myforum/MyforumModule.php[/font], how can I import models in [font="Courier New"]/protected/backend/protected/models/*[/font]?

Thanks

In protected/config/main.php, add the following:


Yii::setPathOfAlias('backend', dirname(__FILE__)."/../backend/protected/");

In /protected/modules/myforum/MyforumModule.php, you can now use:


Yii::import('backend.models.*');




Yii::app()->getModule('backend');
