I'm not seeing the code for it. (Yes, I do see the comment, but I don't see the backing code, nor the place in https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/CDataInterface.html where it says that when you "import" a C Data schema object, the incoming pointer is released. I feel this is a bad pattern - releasing resources that you don't own/didn't create. It would be really surprising to me that I couldn't get a `CArrowSchema*` from somewhere, and I couldn't call `CArrowSchemaImporter.ImportSchema` multiple times on it. cc @pitrou who has the "git blame" on the above bridge.h file. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
