[FlashCodersNY] Flex UIComponent SWF not working

[Tim Beynart]

bogus.
So is there a way to create library assets using mxmlc, so I could
segregate the classes I need into "library" assets?
Like this:
[Embed(source="SwfComponent.swf" symbol="myLibraryItem")]

Otherwise I am going to create swc and call it a day.

I am trying to avoid using the IDE at all costs, this is going to be
passed to Java developers who need to use mxmlc only.
