I suggest instead passing an array of ints and then filling
them in for further use (call be reference rather than trying
to return a pointer to a data structure that you'll have trouble
building).
i.e., do:
int myArr[] = new int[3];
myNativeCall(myArr);
rather than:
int myArr[] = new int[3];
myArr = myNativeCall();
This ends up being much easier...
