    <title>Zend_Application_Resource_Modules</title>

    <para>
        <classname>Zend_Application_Resource_Modules</classname> is used to initialize
        your application modules. If your module has a
        <filename>Bootstrap.php</filename> file in its root, and it contains a class
        named <classname>Module_Bootstrap</classname> (where "Module" is the module name),
        then it will use that class to bootstrap the module.
    </para>

    <para>
        By default, an instance of
        <classname>Zend_Application_Module_Autoloader</classname> will be created for the
        module, using the module name and directory to initialize it.
    </para>

        <title>Front Controller resource dependency</title>

        <para>
            The Modules resource has a dependency on the <link
                linkend="zend.application.available-resources.frontcontroller">Front
            Controller resource</link>. You can, of course, provide your own
            replacement for that resource via a custom Front Controller resource
            class or a class initializer method -- so long as the resource
            plugin class ends in "Frontcontroller" or the initializer method is
            named "_initFrontController" (case insensitive).
        </para>

        <title>Configuring Modules</title>
        <para>
            You can specify module-specific configuration using the module name
            as a prefix or sub-section in your configuration file.
        </para>

        <para>
            For example, let's assume that your application has a "news" module.
            The following are <acronym>INI</acronym> and <acronym>XML</acronym> examples showing
            configuration of resources in that module.

        <title>Retrieving a specific module bootstrap</title>

        <para>
            On occasion, you may need to retrieve the bootstrap object for a
            specific module -- perhaps to run discrete bootstrap methods, or to
            fetch the autoloader in order to configure it. This can be done
            using the Modules resource's <methodname>getExecutedBootstraps()</methodname>
            method.
        </para>

        <programlisting language="php"><![CDATA[
$resource = $bootstrap->getPluginResource('modules');
$moduleBootstraps = $resource->getExecutedBootstraps();
$newsBootstrap = $moduleBootstraps['news'];
