---------------------------------------
Summary: Add APIs to decimal vector for writing big endian data
Key: ARROW-1946
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1946
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Siddharth Teotia
Assignee: Siddharth Teotia
We recently moved Dremio to LE Decimal format (similar to Arrow). As part of
that we introduces some APIs in decimal vector which take a big endian data and
swap the bytes while writing into the ArrowBuf of decimal vector.
The advantage of these APIs is that caller would not have to allocate an
additional memory and write( and read) source big endian twice for swapping
into new memory and using that to write into the vector.
We can directly swap bytes while writing into the vector -- just read once and
swap while writing.
