Abstract

Techniques for reducing unsafe memory access, particularly when interacting with native libraries, are disclosed. The system may receive a memory address. The system may determine that the received memory address is not associated with an existing memory segment. The system selects a particular memory segment, of a plurality of memory segments. The memory segment may have a length of zero and a size corresponding to a size of a native heap. The system may return a reference to the particular memory segment.
