Thanks David.
The HTTP server lib I'm using is Nghttp2 (which supports HTTP/2) so
theoretically should be able to add Flight I think/hope?

Hey Matt,
There are two reasons: one is we'd like to avoid exposing that we use
gRPC, since a goal has been to add support for other transports
besides gRPC. (That said, FlightServerOptions does include a hook to
allow configuring the gRPC server manually.) Also, we wanted to avoid
exposing more API surface than necessary, at least until there's a
reason to expose it.
Just to clarify - are you trying to add a Flight service to a non-gRPC
server, i.e. you'd like to have Flight over HTTP/1? What server
framework/library are you using?

I've noticed a lot of Flight functionality is hidden in "internal"
classes.
What's the reason for this, and is there an alternative?
Specifically, I'd like to add Flight support to an existing HTTP server,
but it looks like I must use the server that comes with
arrow::flight::FlightServerBase, or provide my own implementations of
the internal functions. Is that correct?
Thanks again, Matt
