Ryan Blue commented on PARQUET-278:
-----------------------------------
[~tianshuo], I'm fine changing the API a bit, but using the constructors
doesn't help ensure types are valid. That's the primary reason for moving to
the Types API, whatever it ends up looking like.
> enforce non empty group on MessageType level

> As columnar format, parquet currently does not support empty struct/group
> without leaves. We should throw when constructing an empty GroupType to give
> a clear message.
