@romainfrancois since the conversion code in `python_to_arrow.cc` and `r/src/array_from_vector.cpp` are pretty similar it would be nice to reuse as much code as we could (including new features like auto chunking large inputs). Could you please take a look at the base classes in [converter.h](https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/0a384d574fde83324d4949a56220e6cda8527816/cpp/src/arrow/util/converter.h) to see whether would it help/improve the R side implementation? I have not documented it yet because it's still under discussion but you can take a look how I'm using it [in the python bindings](https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/0a384d574fde83324d4949a56220e6cda8527816/cpp/src/arrow/python/python_to_arrow.cc#L351-L802). ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
