--------------------------------------
Summary: [R] Stop masking base R functions
Key: ARROW-5505
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-5505
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: R
Reporter: Neal Richardson
Fix For: 0.14.0
The package startup message about masking base functions can be scary. We
should avoid masking base functions without a compelling reason (i.e. let's do
arrow_array() instead of array(), arrow_table()). The arrow versions do very
different things than the base functions; plus, end users shouldn’t be dealing
directly with Tables and Arrays, so they don’t need to figure so prominently in
the public API of the package.
