Not an expert, but I think you misunderstand this toArray call. The
javadoc:
public Structure[] toArray(Structure[] array)
Returns a view of this structure's memory as an array of structures.
Note that this Structure must have a public, no-arg constructor. If the
structure is currently using a Memory backing, the memory will be
resized to fit the entire array.
I parse that as
(a) the first element of the returned array will be "this"
(b) subsequent elements of the returned array will be from "this"'s memory
This fits your data:
(a) first point is Java allocated 0, 0
(b) second point is newly (C) allocated gibberish
The purpose would be to treat Structure* values passed from C as
Structure[] values when appropriate. The array param just reuses that
array, reduces that allocation.
One possible solution?
Point p = new Point(1, 2);
Point[] points = p.toArray(2);
p[1].setPoint(3, 4); // or some other assignment
Maybe something more elegant.
