Liya Fan created ARROW-5778: ------------------------------- Summary: Extract the logic for vector data copying to the super classes Key: ARROW-5778 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-5778 Project: Apache Arrow Issue Type: Improvement Components: Java Reporter: Liya Fan Assignee: Liya Fan
Currently, each vector has its own {{copyFrom}} method. The implementations for fixed-width vectors are similar, whereas the implementations for the variable-width vectors are similar. This issue extract such implementations to the base classes, with the following benefits: 1. Less code makes it easier to maintain 2. Move the method to the base class makes the method more convenient to use. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
