Embeding SWF File in Flash?

[panel]

Hi

Main.as

package {
    import flash.display.*;

    public class Main extends Sprite {
        [Embed(source='Test.swf')]
        private var Test:Class;

        public function Main() {            
            var test:Sprite=new Test();
            addChild(test);
        }
    }
}

This code works in Flex, but when I am trying to do run it in Flash I am reciving error.

TypeError: Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor.
at Main$iinit()

It seems that flash can't see SWF files embeded this way. Is there any way to emdeb SWF in flash clases? (besides library linkage)

Flash Authoring doesn't support the [Embed] metadata type.

You would just import the SWF to your library.

Thats what I was thinking, but I wanted to be sure. Thanks

Flash IDE ignores meta-tags and you end up instanciating smth you don't have access to

Actually, Flash CS4 supports [Embed] code, using the Flex SDK. You need to set the library path to the Flex SDK in your publish settings for this to work.

Not sure if its possible with CS3 though.
