Description

An assert fires in compiler code when the -force-rsls option is used. Asserts are normally disabled, but Flash Builder has them on in the developer environment and on the junit machines.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Edit sdkfolder/bin/mxmlc to add -ea to VMARGS so that it looks like this:

VMARGS="-ea -Xmx384m -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false "

2. Run mxmlc anymxmlapp.mxml -force-rsls=

{flexlib}

\libs\osmf.swc

Actual Results:

An error appears:

Error: invalid runtime-shared-library-settings.force-rsls dependency runtime-shared-library-settings.runtime-shared-library-path

Expected Results:

No error occurs.

Workaround (if any):

Remove -ea. This is however not feasible in the Flash Builder developer environment or on the junit machines that run Flash Builder tests.
