kevingurney opened a new pull request, #37348:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/37348
### Rationale for this change
In support of adding `arrow.array.Date32Array`, this pull request adds a new
`arrow.type.Date32Type` class and associated `arrow.date32` construction
function to the MATLAB interface.
### What changes are included in this PR?
1. New `arrow.type.Date32Type` class.
2. New `arrow.date32` construction function that returns an
`arrow.type.Date32Type` instance.
3. New `arrow.type.ID.Date32` type enumeration value.
4. Added an abstract `arrow.type.DateType` class which
`arrow.type.Date32Type` inherits from. `arrow.type.Date64Type` will also
inherit from this class to share the `DateUnit` property. This mirrors the
implementation of the `Time32Type` and `Time64Type` classes inheriting from an
abstract `arrow.type.TimeType` class to share the `TimeUnit` property.
**Example**
```matlab
>> type = arrow.date32()
type =
Date32Type with properties:
ID: Date32
DateUnit: Day
```
### Are these changes tested?
Yes.
1. Added a new `tDate32Type` test class.
2. Updated the `tID` test class to include `arrow.type.ID.Date32`.
### Are there any user-facing changes?
Yes.
1. There is a new public `arrow.type.Date32Type` class.
2. There is a new public `arrow.date32` construction function.
3. There is a new `arrow.type.ID.Date32` type enumeration value.
### Future Directions
1. #37230
2. Add `arrow.array.Date32Array` class.
3. Add `arrow.array.Date64Array` class.
