I have the same question that I had in the other CL, does
Dart_CMessage help in some way?

I was wondering if Dart_PostCMessage could take a Dart_CObject* parameter
directly.

Yes, Dart_CMessage is gone.

+bool DartUtils::PostInteger(Dart_Port port_id, intptr_t value) {
+  // Post a message with the integer value.
+  intptr_t min = 0xc0000000;  // -1073741824
+  intptr_t max = 0x3fffffff;  // 1073741823
+  ASSERT(min <= value && value < max);

Would this work on a 64 bit system where value could be larger than the range
you have.

Changed the method to PostInt32 and with int32_t parameter type.

+  Dart_CObject object;
+  object.type = Dart_CObject::kInt32;
+  object.value.as_int32 = value;
+  Dart_CMessage message;
+  message.root = &object;
+  return Dart_PostCMessage(port_id, &message);
+}
