embed meta tag

[daemonk]

I was trying to use the embed meta tag in my flash project:

[Embed (source="/VSAsset/uiFrameT.png" )]
public static const uiFrameT:Class;

public var TFrame : DisplayObject = new uiFrameT();


It kept giving me this error:

1017: The definition of base class BitmapAsset was not found.

I googled it and found this article:

Is that still true? Or are there some work around for it now?

That still is true as far as I am aware...
