Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create an AS class:

package
{
/* Not extending RuntimeDPIProvider class */

public class InvalidClass1
{

public function get runtimeDPI():Number

{ return 100; }

}
}

2. Specify it as <s:Application runtimeDPIProvider="InvalidClass1" />
3. Run the app.

Actual Results: No overriding happens. The app just runs as normal.

Expected Results: Since there is no warning or error, it may not be obvious if users unintentionally set an invalid class. I don't know if this is possible but it would be nice to inform users the class is not properly implemented.

Workaround (if any):
