nbenn opened a new issue, #324:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow-nanoarrow/issues/324
Sorry to resurface this once more.
```r
library(nanoarrow)
array <- as_nanoarrow_array(
bit64::as.integer64(c(-3:3, NA))
)
str(convert_array(array, bit64::integer64()))
#> integer64 [1:8] -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 NA
str(convert_array(array, integer()))
#> int [1:8] -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 NA
str(convert_array(array, numeric()))
#> num [1:8] -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 NA
```
This all works great thanks to #293. For DBI compliance I (unfortunately)
also need
```r
convert_array(array, character())
#> Error in convert_array.default(array, character()) :
#> Can't convert array <int64> to R vector of type character
```
Any chance nanoarrow could do this for me? Or is there some "hook" for me to
use? I'm afraid it'll have to happen on the C-side though. Having to first
materialize as `bit64::integer64()` only to then coerce to character on the R
side could be a workaround but it kind of defeats the purpose.
