howdy, i'm not sure what classes are defined in your modules or if you're using load-externs and external-library-path when compiling your module projects. but what i have found is that if a module has a class linked in that is the exact same class (and comes from the same swc, say framework.swc) as another module, and you try to cast an object obtained from that module into the exact same class of another module then you will get a type coercion error.
so, my guess is that loading the shared content first loads the component into the "correct" applicationDomain. to avoid guessing when to load what, use load-externs or external-library-path to so you can link in a component into a module when you know that the component is also linked from the code that loaded the module. Specially if the modules have to "share" objects between each other. alex harui's presentation of the class loading mechanism at 360flex was very helpful. /r http://www.searchcoders.com/flex/?applicationDomain+coercion http://blog.searchcoders.com/ nxzone wrote: > Why you think this bug is due to this cause?
