Wes McKinney created ARROW-278:
----------------------------------
Summary: [Format] Struct type name consistency in implementations
and metadata
Key: ARROW-278
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-278
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Format
Reporter: Wes McKinney
As discussed in https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/121 for ARROW-262, the
{{Struct}} name is reserved in Flatbuffers, so we temporarily used the
`{{Tuple}}` name. We should either use a tweaked name like {{Struct_}} that
does not cause conflicts or choose a name for the Struct concept (e.g.
{{Tuple}}) and use that consistently in format documents and implementation.
The least disruptive solution is to use the {{Struct_}} name in the Flatbuffers
IDL.
