--------------------------------------
Summary: [C++] Add a method that takes an RLE visitor for a bitmap.
Key: ARROW-8504
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-8504
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: C++
Reporter: Micah Kornfield
For nullability data, in many cases nulls are not evenly distributed. In these
cases it would be beneficial to have a mechanism to understand when runs of
set/unset bits are encountered. One example of this is writing translating a
bitmap to parquet definition levels .
An implementation path could be to add this as method on Bitmap that makes an
adaptor callback for visit words.
