Hello, Jose Almeida and James Duong have proposed two additions to Arrow Flight SQL, an experimental protocol for interacting with SQL databases over Arrow Flight. The purpose of these additions is to provide necessary metadata for implementing a JDBC driver on top of Flight SQL [1].
The additions are as follows: - As part of returned schemas, include metadata about the underlying SQL data type [2]. - Add a new RPC endpoint, GetXdbcTypeInfo, to get metadata about the supported SQL data types [3]. Both pull requests implement the additions in C++ and Java and contain integration tests. Please vote whether to accept these enhancements. The vote will be open for at least 72 hours.
