/**
 * NativeLongByReference is used when the address of a primitive C long must be passed
 * as a parameter to a function.
 *
 * 

For example, the following C code, *

 * {@code
 * extern void get_a(long * ap);
 *
 * long foo(void) {
 *     long a;
 *     // pass a reference to 'a' so get_a() can fill it out
 *     get_a(&a);
 *
 *     return a;
 * }
 * }
 * 
*

* Would be declared in java as *

 * {@code
 * interface Lib {
 *     void get_a(@Out NativeLongByReference ap);
 * }
 * }
 * 
*

* and used like this *

 * NativeLongByReference ap = new NativeLongByReference();
 * lib.get_a(ap);
 * System.out.printf("a from lib=%d\n", a.longValue());
