Hi Arrow experts,

I am trying to find out if Arrow supports reading/writing arbitrary
nested objects similarly to what Parquet supports with its FSM.
I came across this PR https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/4066 which
aimed to implement the Parquet specific approach (the FSM) but it was
declined because as far as I understand it was too Parquet specific.
Then, there is https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1644 which
tracks the tasks related to writing nested objects, but I couldn't
make sense of it all.

Basically my question is: Does arrow provide the functionality of
reading/writing arbitrarily nested objects (similar to Parquet's FSM
implementation)? Could you please point me to some documentation or
code for this?

Thanks in advance!


Best,

Renato M.
