Hi Juan,

Hi Folks,
I've just opened http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7407 , with a
description of the problem, several tests (based on Henrik's
scripts) and the fix I propose.

What worries me a bit is the other changes I needed to do
to be able to run the Smalltalk BitBlt simulation and to
do the translation. These are:

I am just guessing here, but I think that BitBltSimulator
expects to
be used with an interpreter simulator, so perhaps if you
initialize it
with a simulator there will be no need to add these methods.
sim := BitBltSimulator new setInterpreter:
InterpreterSimulator new

Given that BitBltSimulation calls #isIntegerObject: it looks like
the ivar interpreterProxy should hold an InterpreterProxy (as it
already does) and not an InterpreterSimulator. I did not add my
patch to make simulation work to Mantis, as I'm not sure about them.
When simulating the interpreterProxy inst var should hold the InterpreterSimulator, not the proxy.
Anyway, I'm asking for help on making #copyBitsSimulated work again, like it should do when called from BitBltTest. If nobody can help with that, I guess I'll open a Mantis issue for this problem, in the hope that some day it gets fixed.
Cheers,
Andreas, perhaps you (or anyone knowledgeable enough) can try
making the bitblt simulator tests included in the Mantis issues
work. BTW, I moved these tests to VMMaker, as the current version
in trunk does test nothing if VMMaker is not loaded. That's why
these old tests didn't catch the problem of BitBltSimulator not
working anymore.
Cheers,
