HeeksCNC error: operands to ?: have different types “wchar_t” and “wxString”

I was compiling HeeksCNC as explained here:
https://code.google.com/p/heekscnc/wiki/DebianPackagesBuild

But when compiling it fails with this error message:

HeeksCNC.cpp:1402:46: error: operands to ?: have different types "wchar_t*" and "wxString"

I fixed it casting with (wxString):

$ vi src/HeeksCNC.cpp

From:
filename = (wxGetenv(wxT("XDG_CONFIG_HOME"))?wxGetenv(wxT("XDG_CONFIG_HOME")):wxFileName::GetHomeDir() + wxT("/.config")) + wxT("/heekscnc/") + resource;

To:
filename = (wxGetenv(wxT("XDG_CONFIG_HOME"))? (wxString) wxGetenv(wxT("XDG_CONFIG_HOME")):wxFileName::GetHomeDir() + wxT("/.config")) + wxT("/heekscnc/") + resource;

Now it compiles fine!

Installing HeeksCAD in Debian 8.0

Just follow these instructions:
https://code.google.com/p/heekscad/wiki/BuildDebianPackages

And replace libwxgtk2.8-dev by libwxgtk3.0-dev as explained below.

First, download source code, compile and install libarea:

$ sudo apt-get install subversion build-essential debhelper cmake libboost-python-dev
$ svn checkout http://libarea.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ libarea
$ cd libarea/
$ dpkg-buildpackage -b -us -uc
$ cd ..
$ sudo dpkg -i libarea*.deb python-area*.deb

Install dependences libraries for heekscad:

$ sudo apt-get install liboce-visualization-dev libwxgtk3.0-dev libgtkglext1-dev python-dev

Download heekscad source code:

$ svn checkout http://heekscad.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ heekscad

Edit debian/control replacing libwxgtk2.8-dev dependence by libwxgtk3.0-dev:
$ cd heekscad/
$ vi debian/control
Rename libwxgtk2.8-dev to libwxgtk3.0-dev

Finally compile and install heekscad:

$ dpkg-buildpackage -b -us -uc
$ cd ..
$ sudo apt-get install wx3.0-i18n
$ sudo dpkg -i *heeks*.deb
