My quick guess is that we can't cast a HalfFloatArray to a FixedSizeBinaryArray, and this is causing the crash. For example another case that takes this path in the column writer is Decimal128Array, but that array extends FixedSizeBinaryArray, and thus can be cast to that type. While it's possible to implement such a cast operator, I am not sure that's something we typically do in our codebase for arrays. I suppose somewhere in the write path, we should explicitly convert the float array to a binary array (it might be this conversion still needs to be implemented) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
