Brian Hulette created ARROW-998:
-----------------------------------
Summary: [Doc] File format documents incorrect schema location
Key: ARROW-998
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-998
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Brian Hulette
The documentation for the file format makes it look like the schema is at the
beginning of the file, since it "contains" the streaming format
(https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/format/IPC.md#file-format), but in
reality the schema is in the footer
(https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/format/File.fbs#L29)
