As I understand, unavailability of JDoR in Unix is because of the result string ownership. Whereas in Windows it's ownership is passed on to caller and together with J they can access the shared SysAlloc's API, the malloc/free are different; so either a free'er must me provided or ownership is retained by J by means of output callback, as it is done now. Is that correct reasoning?
