Hi, I have a question about native C consuming a KN shared lib. I am reviewing the code in the 'produce_dynamic' test and noticed this:
https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-native/blob/master/backend.native/tests/produce_dynamic/simple/main.c#L38

T_(Data) data = __ kotlin.root.getMutable();

Why is this object not released via DisposeStablePointer() like the other objects returned from the KN side?

This might be a bug.

A related question, what does DisposeStablePointer do? Does it perform memory deallocation like C++ delete? Or is it more along the lines of decrementing a refcount for kotlin GC?

This one.
