Flash Button Component inside of a SWC

I'm publishing a SWC from FlashCC for use in a FlashBuilder Air project and I get errors when I compile.

Inside of the SWC I have a MovieClip with a button component (fl.controls.Button). In Flash Builder I can make an instance of the MovieClip but when I run the app I get a coercion error:

cannot convert flash.display::MovieClip@56ebee1 to fl.controls.Button.

If I remove the button component from the MovieClip and recompile the SWC there's no error.

If i simply try to add a button instance like this:

var b:Button=new Button();

trace(b);

addChild(b);

The button traces but I get this error

[object Button]

TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null

Is it possible the SWC tries to instantiate a class that is referenced through a library?

When adding a Button directly to the app I can solve the null problem by setting the default button styles, which are included in the SWC like this:

            var btn:Button=new Button();

            btn.setStyle( "upSkin", new Button_upSkin());

            btn.setStyle( "downSkin", new Button_downSkin());

            btn.setStyle( "overSkin", new Button_overSkin());

            btn.setStyle( "disabledSkin", new Button_disabledSkin());

            btn.setStyle( "selectedUpSkin", new Button_selectedUpSkin());

            btn.setStyle( "selectedDownSkin", new Button_selectedDownSkin());

            btn.setStyle( "selectedOverSkin", new Button_selectedOverSkin());

            btn.setStyle( "selectedDisabledSkin", new Button_selectedDisabledSkin());

           

            btn.label="Hello";

            btn.width=100;

            btn.height=22;

            airapp.addChild(btn);

What I really want to do is avoid the coding and make button and other component instances inside of MovieClips in Flash and include them in the SWC.

I can get components to work with Flash Professional Projects, but this is an ActionScript Project, so I need the SWC.
