Description

Steps to reproduce:
Install webtier compiler for J2EE, webtier.war. depoy the war and put your flex app in the deployed war. (Tested on flash player 9.0.124.0 and 10.0.12.10 on IE.)
1. Compile a flex application using webtier compiler. (The first time works fine.)
You can use any application as simple as following:
///////////////////////
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute">
</mx:Application>
///////////////////////
2. Modifiy the code a bit. Even adding white space will be enough to reproduce this issue.
3. Then try to recompile the application.

Actual Results:
Get the following error message.
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
at mx.styles::StyleManagerImpl/initProtoChainRoots()
at mx.styles::StyleManager$/http://www.adobe.com/2006/flex/mx/internal::initProtoChainRoots()

at _helloworld_mx_managers_SystemManager/create()
at mx.managers::SystemManager/initializeTopLevelWindow()
at mx.managers::SystemManager/http://www.adobe.com/2006/flex/mx/internal::docFrameHandler()

On Flash Player 10.0.12.10, it does not throw this error, but does nothing.

Expected Results:
It should be able to compile without the error message above.

Workaround (if any):
in flex-webtier-config.xml; set the incremental-compile to false:
<incremental-compile>false</incremental-compile>
