Compiling Atol

Patch class wxLongLongNative inside header file /include/wx/longlong.h
(adding standard cast operators for wxLongLongNative)

operator long() { return GetLo(); }
operator int() { return GetLo(); }

#ifdef __WXGTK__
operator long long int (){ return (long long int)m_ll; }
#else
#ifdef __WXMSW__
operator __int64() { return (__int64)GetLo() + (((__int64)GetHi()) << 32); }
#endif
#endif

another patch (Windows code only):
a) open file: /src/msw/listctrl.cpp
b) search for "case LVN_BEGINLABELEDITA:" and "case LVN_BEGINLABELEDITW:" in the code and add following code into BOTH case
branches (at the bottom of the branches)

-------------------------- CODE -------------------------------------
// [re]create the text control wrapping the HWND we got
if ( m_textCtrl )
{
m_textCtrl->UnsubclassWin();
m_textCtrl->SetHWND(0);
delete m_textCtrl;
}

HWND hWnd = ListView_GetEditControl(GetHwnd());
m_textCtrl = (wxTextCtrl *)CLASSINFO(wxTextCtrl)->CreateObject();
m_textCtrl->SetHWND((long)hWnd);
m_textCtrl->SubclassWin((long)hWnd);
m_textCtrl- >SetParent(this);

// we must disallow TABbing away from the control while the edit contol is
// shown because this leaves it in some strange state (just try removing
// this line and then pressing TAB while editing an item in listctrl
// inside a panel)
m_textCtrl->SetWindowStyle(m_textCtrl->GetWindowStyle() | wxTE_PROCESS_TAB);
-------------------------- CODE -------------------------------------

c) delete similar code in EditLabel() function (starting with "if (m_textCtrl )" until, but not including line "return m_textCtrl")

3. Windows compilation:

Visual C++
a) unpack wxWindows source code to the C:wxWindows (do not leave version part of directory name)
b) patch wxWindow code, see above
c) build wxWindows: open /src/wxWindows.dsw file in Visual C++ and compile it
d) copy "includewxmswsetup0.h" to "includewxsetup.h" if target file doesn't already exist
e) unpack Atol source code, start the /_win/Atol.dsw file and compile it

Dev-cpp
- currently not supported

3. Linux compilation:

Requirements: Gnome/gtk installed, gcc compiler

a) you must be logged as root
b) unpack wxWindows source code (and patch it, see above)
c) build it and install: "./configure --with-gtk --enable-gtk2 --disable-shared", "make", "make install"
d) unpack Atol source code
e) edit its makefile (inside /_unix/ subdir): set variables for wxWindows source path etc.
f) type: make
