Wes McKinney created ARROW-381:
----------------------------------
Summary: [C++] Simplify primitive array type builders to use a
default type singleton
Key: ARROW-381
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-381
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: C++
Reporter: Wes McKinney
Currently the builder classes all expect to be passed a
{{shared_ptr<DataType>}} -- for the primitive types (boolean, numbers, strings,
etc.) it would be simpler to default to a common value rather than requiring
that you obtain an instance yourself from someplace (e.g. {{arrow::uint8()}} as
in the WIP patch for ARROW-373)
