Sharing code between swfs

Hi, Lets say I have two swfs A and B, and at runtime, swf A loads swf B, and I wish to share code between them, to minimize file size and download times.

Use the framework RSL within an RSL

I have a rather large Flex SWF and am breaking it up into separate Modules. There is some overlap between the modules and I want to put all of this into one shared RSL.

How to link library symbols in Flash CS4 to base classes from an external .swc (rsl)?

Hi all, This question stems from this question that I asked yesterday. I've followed Theo's advice and created a .swc with all the common classes and added the .swc as an external library to my module .swf.
