> [R] Make IPC APIs consistent
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-3498
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3498
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: R
> Reporter: Wes McKinney
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 0.12.0
>
>
> There are many flavors of IPC functions:
> * Read a complete IPC stream (where schema is included in the first
> message(s))
> * Read an IPC "file"
> * Read a schema only from a point in a buffer
> * Read a record batch given a known schema and the memory address of an
> encapsulated IPC message
> These are partly available in R now, but with names that aren't necessarily
> consistent. We should review each use case and normalize the API names
