Sharing source between 2 projects?

I have a project containing a big package "global" of classes which is designed for Web, I need to share these classes with a new mobile project, but when i add them with :

Properties -> Flex Build Path -> Source path -> Add Folder

they start appearing with index [source path] before the package name, and since them Flash Builder start trowing error messages :

"A file found in a source-path must have the same package structure '', as the definition's package, 'global'."

As we've discussed in the comments, I think it would be a better approach to compile your "global" classes into a library (.swc).
You were concerned about loading unnecessary classes: when you link to a library as 'merged', only the classes you use are actually compiled into the main application (and any classes they depend on), so there's no need to worry about that.
As a last argument I also think this is a more flexible approach. A compiled library is easier to reuse and version, so the code can more easily be distributed to other developers on your team.

I guess if you will include 'src' fonder instead of 'src/global' that problem will disappear.

Rename one of the packages with right click->refactor. Than is should work.

If not you can also try to have your two codes available at the same project, and then you can select which to run in Flash Builder, by right-clicking to that .as or .mxml file, and selecting set as ... (or something like that)
