This was happening with RoboVM idea plugin but in general issue is wider. First thing attempt to fix it includes:

bro-gen received several updates and new features during handling iOS11 bindings, mostly fixes but there are new ones.

It is not too big task to create java binding for custom framework as bro-gen semiautomatic tool available. This step-by-step tutorial explains how quickly generate binding using recently added suggestion feature. Admob is used here as an example framework.

History AReference to java object is not maintained by objc, when the java object is garbage collected #217
Fix PR fixed #217 #219

The problem is that ObjCObject keep reference of native object pointer (peer) to java object in map where java object is maintained in week reference vo. As result all java objects that is not referenced at Java side are subject for GC. And this is wrong.
