Definition for symbol not found when embedding swc

Question

When i embed the symbol "Tile" from swf, it works ok, when i try embedding the same symbol from swc, FlashDebugger throws this error:

Error: definition for symbol 'Tile' not found
[Embed(source="../lib/assets.swc", symbol="Tile", mimeType="application/x-shockwave-flash")]
Error: Unable to transcode ../lib/assets.swc.

Why do you use swc? May be change it to swf? I dont see need to use swc in this case — Serge Him, Jan 21 '13 at 07:37
either your symbol definition or the path to the swc is wrong — abnvp, Jan 21 '13 at 08:06
The question is: when it's ok to embed SWFs and when to embed SWCs ? — LuciM, Jan 21 '13 at 08:41

Why use swc http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=compilers_30.html
An example for importing swc file : Embedding/importing SWC at compile-time in ActionScript, without setting a library path
As per your comment on which one is better : Flex graphic assets: SWF or SWC?
