Hi Wes, I will certainly give that a shot and provide feedback - my typical setup with arrow has so far used ExternalProject and I tend to prefer this for development vs the install path since it makes it easier track problems, step into the code, run arrow examples and tests when I need a quick usage sample etc. So if possible I would like to stick to that or one of the other cmake options for including the arrow source into a project
