    Description

      Hi,
      1. Build an application using Flex for mobile targetted at iOS
      2. Use ResourceBundle to provide all strings
      3. Add a metadata tag to the main application .mxml as per the below:
      <fx:Metadata>
      [ResourceBundle("Messages")]
      </fx:Metadata>
      4. Compile in the different modes:

      • For ad hoc release; compiles and runs
      • For fast mode debug; compiles and runs
      • For STANDARD mode debug; CRASHES HORRIBLY before executing user code

      NB: I have tried using a test project where I comment out ALL code and display classes and use an empty view. It is DEFINITELY the metadata declaration that causes the bug.

      NB2: I have just attempted moving the metadata declaration elsewhere in my code (to the first view) and the same results are found.
