R arrow dependency on Rcpp?

2017-08-02 Thread Clark Fitzgerald
Rcpp provides a friendlier interface between R and C++, similar to Cython for Python. Do people have opinions on whether R / Arrow depends on Rcpp? Alternatively the bindings can be written directly using R's C++ API. Here's a JIRA for work on R / Arrow: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARRO

R arrow first steps

2017-07-27 Thread Clark Fitzgerald
I've got at least a "hello world" for R / Arrow bindings in progress. https://github.com/clarkfitzg/Rarrow Over the next couple weeks I plan to spend some time looking at the Arrow C++ and Python sources and write a few bindings by hand, then think about how to automatically generate bindings from

Use case for R Arrow Bindings
