Andy Grove created ARROW-2583: --------------------------------- Summary: [Rust] Buffer should be typeless Key: ARROW-2583 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-2583 Project: Apache Arrow Issue Type: Improvement Components: Rust Reporter: Andy Grove Fix For: 0.10.0
See comments in [https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/1971] for background on this but the summary is that Buffer should just deal with untyped memory e.g. `* const u8` and all type-handling should be moved to the Array layer e.g. `BufferArray<T>`. This would be more consistent with the other implementations. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
