Library Linkage to an .as class

Hi there.

I’m starting my first AS3 project and I’m trying to make a generic Pre-loader class which is the document class of my Pre-loader .fla.

I have made my logo in CS3 and set the linkage class but I can’t access it from the document class, in fact with this code I can only use it in the .fla’s time line.

Is there something I’m doing wrong, I basically want to load library item from .as files.


package {

    import flash.display.*;
    import flash.events.*;

    public class Preloader extends Sprite {

        public function Preloader() {
           //This section here works in the fla's time line
            var _loaderLogo:Logo = new Logo();
            _loaderLogo.x = _loaderLogo.y = 100;
            addChild(_loaderLogo);



        }
    }
}
