[haXe] [Q] copying from a loader object to Bitmap

[Michael Norton]

hi,

I previously tried,

> var image:Bitmap = new Bitmap(_loader.content);

and the compiler returned:
src/BHCTextures.hx:20: characters 13-40 : Invalid arguments
src/BHCTextures.hx:20: characters 13-40 : Function 'new' requires  
arguments : ?bitmapData, ?pixelSnapping, ?smoothing

However, I tried thecast _loader.content and that worked!

thanks.

Mike
