Rooters,

>it yet, however. Masa could you maybe explain what is supported.

'long long' is supported in CINT now. It is tested only on Windows-NT/9x and 
Linux. Basically, I see some limitations in both Linux and Win32 handling 64bi
t
integer. For portability reason, CINT can only support smallest set of 
capability among multiple OS.

To use 'long long' you need to download CINT source package and  build
include/long.dll. Source is in lib/longlong directory. Running setup script 
will do. For many of the other platforms, longlong source may need to be
modified. Your comment and contribution is greatly appreciated.

Once you have include/long.dll , CINT implicitly loads it when you use 
'long long'.
