Okay, and I can't get around that by managing the memory for those objects myself? (e.g. in the snippet above I attempted to alloc a long on the heap)

You can pass pointers to C heap data to threads, as in regular C. For more Kotlin way to pass object references, workers could be used, see samples.

"You can pass pointers to C heap data to threads"
That's exactly what I was trying to do in the code I posted? Or do I need to malloc it from C code and it's not enough to use nativeHeap.alloc?

It should be enough, maybe you freed it too early
