Indeed it seems the `safe` keyword is ignored _if_ we are using the python_to_arrow.cc code path (in contrast to the numpy_to_arrow.cc code path). This is similar as a recent issue that was opened with a variant on this (using list arrays): https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16491 A simplified example (even without using a nested type): ``` # input is a python list -> safe keyword doesn't work >>> pa.array([3046682132], pa.int32(), safe=False) ... ArrowInvalid: Value 3046682132 too large to fit in C integer type # input is a numpy array -> safe=False has effect >>> pa.array(np.array([3046682132]), pa.int32(), safe=False) <pyarrow.lib.Int32Array object at 0x7f40e939f040> [ -1248285164 ] ``` So going to close this, and add the example at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16491 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
