@Dandandan , thanks a lot for this. Looking at the use-case, couldn't it make more sense to offer a method that creates a constant non-null array and a constant null array? I am asking this because the common use-case I see that justifies an iterator (instead of a constant) is to perform an infalible operation over the values while keeping the null buffer untouched (e.g. the typical unary operator). ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
