In Flash Pro I created a simple 30-frame animation of an MovieClip object. I then published the fla file as a swf, as well as a swc file. Within Flash Builder 4, I can load the swf file (e.g. using Loader, URLRequest, etc) with ActionScript and have the animation play on the stage without any problems. OK, fine.

However, if I wanted to use the swc file instead of the swf file, how do I reference it and play the animation? I tried including the swc file in the Library path (“Add SWC”) for the Actionscript project, and directly referencing it, but no luck. Do I need to use Loader somehow?

thanks
