Question

Hy.
I have 2 controllers, the first one application/classes/controller/welcome.php and the second one application/classes/controller/admin/welcome.php.

And I have the following routings, set in bootstrap.php

Route::set('admin', '(<directory>(/<controller>(/<action>(/<id>))))', array('directory' => '(admin)'))
    ->defaults(array(
        'directory'  => 'admin',
        'controller' => 'welcome',
        'action'     => 'index',
    ));

Route::set('default', '(<controller>(/<action>(/<id>)))')
    ->defaults(array(
        'controller' => 'welcome',
        'action'     => 'index',
    ));

If I access example.com/welcome it calls index action from the application/classes/controller/welcome.php controller (this is good),
if I access example.com/admin/welcome it calls index action from application/classes/controller/admin/welcome.php controller (this is good),

but if I access simply example.com, it calls the admin’s welcome and not the other one, and I can’t understand why.

I want this: if I access example.com, then call index action from application/classes/controller/admin/welcome.php controller.
How can I solve this?

It looks like you’ve set the directory tag in the first route to be optional, and so it’s matching when no directory is specified. Try:

Route::set('admin', '<directory>(/<controller>(/<action>(/<id>)))', array('directory' => '(admin)'))
->defaults(array(
    'directory'  => 'admin',
    'controller' => 'welcome',
    'action'     => 'index',
));

This should make the tag mandatory, and so it won’t match on /.
