How do I export & use SWC for RSL with Flash Pro CS5?

Question

I want to create a RSL with Flash Pro CS5 and then use it with another Flash file. I've created the following example:

RSLLib.fla

• Create the file
• Create a new MovieClip symbol called Circle, export it for ActionScript as Circle and tick "Export for runtime sharing" with the value "RSLLib.swf"
• In publish settings tick "Export SWC"
• Export the file and now we have "RSLLib.swc" and "RSLLib.swf"

User.fla

• Create the file

• On the first frame of the timeline add the following ActionScript

  addChild(new Circle());

• In ActionScript Settings, in the Library Path create and entry pointing to RSLLib.swc and choose Link Type: "Runtime shared library" with RSL URL "RSLLib.swf"

• Export the file and you'll see that Flash Pro CS5 crashes

Am I doing anything wrong here?... Any pointers appreciated.

All works fine for me. Sounds more like a system/sand-box problem, maybe try changing folders or launching it via http.

Also, little detail I noticed in your example : you don't have to tick the "Export for runtime-sharing" in the library if you are handling the import via SWC etc. Shouldn't crash flash anyway but just so you know ; )
