Wes McKinney reopened ARROW-5545:
---------------------------------
Assignee: (was: TP Boudreau)
> Clarify expectation of UTC values for timestamps with time zones in C++ API
> docs
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-5545
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-5545
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: TP Boudreau
> Priority: Trivial
> Labels: documentation
> Fix For: 0.14.0
>
>
> For timestamp datatypes, if the timezone parameter is non-empty, the int64
> array values in the associated column are assumed to be normalized to UTC.
> This requirement should be made clear to the C++ API user. (It can be
> inferred from the flatbuffers schema, but that internal implementation
> document probably wouldn't ordinarily be consulted by a C++ API consumer.)
