-------------------------------
Summary: Allow enabling/disabling boundary checking dynamically in
the code
Key: ARROW-5264
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-5264
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Java
Reporter: Liya Fan
Assignee: Liya Fan
The flag BoundsChecking#BOUNDS_CHECKING_ENABLED determines if boundary checking
is enabled/disabled in vector/arrow buffer APIs.
It has significant performance implications, since boundary checking is a
frequent operation.
This flag is final and initialized in a static block. That means, the only
reliable way to override it is in the JVM command line. However, for some
scenarios, it is difficult or even impossible to get access to the JVM command
line.
Therefore, it is desirable to provide a way to override it dynamically in the
program code.
