-------------------------------
Summary: [Java] Provide a common interface for float4 and float8
vectors
Key: ARROW-6247
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-6247
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Java
Reporter: Liya Fan
Assignee: Liya Fan
We want to provide an interface for floating point vectors (float4 & float8).
This interface will make it convenient for many operations on a vector. With
this interface, the client code will be greatly simplified, with many
branches/switch removed.
The design is similar to BaseIntVector (the interface for all integer vectors).
We provide 3 methods for setting & getting floating point values:
setWithPossibleTruncate
setSafeWithPossibleTruncate
getValueAsDouble
