Not quite
Merged code will only pull classes from the library that the app uses, and I'll bet that some used only by the module are thus missing You can use rsl, but then the app must load the entire lib at startup. That might be ok. If not, then the rest of the classes should be loaded in a shared code module, See my blog for details.

Base library, to be used in different applications 2. Application Specific library that depends on the Base Library 3. Application that depends on the Base and Application Specific Libraries 4. Modules, loaded into a view stack of the Application, but only if the user requests. Therefore, I am trying to do this: 1. Compile the Base Library as a Flex Library Project. 2. Compile the Application Specific Library also as a Flex Library Project, with a library path dependency on the Base Library swc that is merged into code. 3. Compile the Application as a Flex Project with library dependencies on both the Base Library and Application Specific Library, both merged into code. 4. Compile the Modules as a Flex Project with each Module file noted as a separately compiled Module, with the library dependencies on the Base Library and the Application Specific Library defined as External, and the build destination is a folder in the source path of the Application. When I do this, and try to load a swf from the Modules within the Application, I immediately get an error that a class from the Base Library could not be found. This appears to be an issue related to the External definition. How do I help Flex/Flex Builder resolve this issue? Is this the correct approach? Thanks Alex, or anyone else that can help. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> , "arieljake" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > But what does the [Unload SWF] mean?
