Hi for the presentation I will do at RMLL I want to show that you can execute the VM inside itself. Nathanael told me that this was not working in 3.7. So I'm working with 3.6.
I loaded VMMaker 3.7b5 I prepared a 3.6 image in MVC Then I executed (InterpreterSimulator new openOn: '/Volumes/Data/Users/ducasse/Workspace/FirstCircle/SqDemoes/Squeak3.6 -5424-basic/Squeak3.6-5424-basic-mvc.image') test
But I get an error.
I do not know where to find a version of VMMkaer for 3.6. I looked ont he site of tim but without success.

a) you'd probably be better off running InterpreterSimulatorLSB (or MSB) blah blah b) VMMaker for 3.6 is still on my website at http://sumeru.stanford.edu/tim/pooters/SqFiles/packages/VMMaker/VMMaker3-6g2... c) currently the simulator is not massively useful. I can run an image setup with an MVC project up to the point where I can open a browser, get bored with the dismal speed and exit theimage. In a Morphic project it crashes fairly quickly because the slang code in B2Dplugin-whatever isn't very simulatable yet. I vaguely recall something like strcpy being referred to which is fine when translated but no good in sim. There is a good deal of work needed and I'm simply not in a position to do all of it. If someone were paying me I might change my mind but to be honest there are much more interesting things to do in the VM right now and the simulator is not anywhere near the top of my priority list.
