My JNI-to-CNI porting work is going very well.  CNI is a wonderful

Anyway, my question is this: When I use things like JvNewByteArray() to create a byte array, do I have to free it when I'm finished using it? Or are such CNI allocations handled by GC?

Yes - Java objects are always allocated by the GC. JvNewByteArray() is no exception - think of it as the CNI equivalent of "new byte[...]" in Java.
