I also think you would be better using a kotlin I/O ( perhaps https://ktor.io/kotlinx/io.html) than the C one

If I use CPointer<CFunction> I have to do everything inside that function or I define outside like c does (class concept unusable). So I need something alternative to do background task or something to pass function with freedom of exchange data between CFunction
