> [Rust] Incorporate BooleanArray into PrimitiveArray
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-3540
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3540
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Rust
> Reporter: Paddy Horan
> Assignee: Paddy Horan
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: pull-request-available
> Fix For: 0.12.0

> Time Spent: 0.5h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> Currently we have a specific implementation for `BooleanArray` (bit-packing),
> but due to the `ArrowPrimitiveType` trait which we use as a trait bound in
> many places `PrimitiveArray<bool>` is still a valid type. `make_array`
> actually uses `PrimitiveArray<bool>` which may be a bug but would be fixed by
> this issue anyway.
> I propose move the implementation of `BooleanArray` into
> `PrimitiveArray<bool>`, this would allow us to use the `ArrayPrimitiveType`
> trait as a bound more consistently. i.e. `PrimitiveArrayBuilder<T>` could
> return `PrimitiveArray<T>` instead of having a separate `BooleanArrayBuilder`.
