So,
I
have to admit that I haven't been following this thread in all of its glory
:-), but the JNI spec is quite clear on the sizes of the various primitives.
See the table in section 12.1.1 of the spec. A jbyte is signed
8 bit quantity. A jchar is an unsigned 16 bit quantity, etc. There
are not defined in terms of things like C's char and int. It doesn't
matter what the native platform thinks an int is, a jint is a signed 32
bit quantity.
