Ian Cook created ARROW-12155: -------------------------------- Summary: [R] Require Table columns to be same length Key: ARROW-12155 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-12155 Project: Apache Arrow Issue Type: Bug Components: R Affects Versions: 3.0.0 Reporter: Ian Cook Assignee: Ian Cook Fix For: 4.0.0
An error is thrown if the user attempts to create a RecordBatch with different length arrays: {code:java} > arrow::record_batch(a=1:5, b = 42) Error: Invalid: All arrays must have the same length {code} But no error is thrown if the user attempts to create a Table with different length columns. Instead we get garbage in the table: {code:java} Table$create(a=1:5, b = 42) %>% collect() # A tibble: 5 x 2 a b <int> <dbl> 1 1 4.20e+ 1 2 2 6.94e-310 3 3 6.94e-310 4 4 6.94e-310 5 5 6.94e-310 {code} Change the behavior for Table creation to match the current behavior of RecordBatch creation. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
