-------------------------------
Summary: [Java] Provide a uniform way to get vector name
Key: ARROW-6722
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-6722
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Java
Reporter: Liya Fan
Assignee: Liya Fan
Currently, the getName method is defined in BaseValueVector, as an abstract
class. However, some vector does not extend the BaseValueVector, like
StructVector, UnionVector, ZeroVector.
In this issue, we move the method to ValueVector interface, the base interface
for all vectors.
This makes it easier to get a vector's name without checking its type.
