> Key: ARROW-15967
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15967
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++
> Reporter: Weston Pace
> Priority: Major
>
> When writing code to generate exec plans we often write something like...
> {noformat}
> MakeExecNodeOrStop("write", plan.get(), {table}, options);
> {noformat}
> A few times now a user has (possibly via copy / paste) written the wrong node
> (e.g. "sink" instead of "write") and when that happens we try and do a
> checked cast on the options (e.g. to WriteNodeOptions) and this raises an
> exception. We should do a safer cast and return an invalid status with a
> nice message.
