…ongs Previously, a long was used instead of a pointer in the JNA binding library. This would work until the allocated pointers exceeded 32-bits. On modern JVMs, allocations may produce pointers in excess of 32-bits which would result in invalid memory access errors. This also updates the binding version to 5.0.

is this change still backward compatible (with older Java)? |

I tried it with JVM 8, JVM 9, and JVM 11, and they all worked. I did not try anything earlier than 8 which is the latest JVM that worked previously. |
