Antoine Pitrou updated ARROW-6507: ---------------------------------- Fix Version/s: (was: 4.0.0) 5.0.0 > [C++] Add ExtensionArray::ExtensionValidate for custom validation? > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: ARROW-6507 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-6507 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: C++ > Reporter: Joris Van den Bossche > Priority: Major > Fix For: 5.0.0 > > > From discussing ARROW-6506, [~bkietz] said: an extension type might place > more constraints on an array than those implicit in its storage type, and > users will probably expect to be able to plug those into {{Validate}}. > So we could have a {{ExtensionArray::ExtensionValidate}} that the visitor for > {{ExtensionArray}} can call, similarly like there is also an > {{ExtensionType::ExtensionEquals}} that the visitor calls when extension > types are checked for equality. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
