Review Comment: Ok, I suppose that's not very future-proof, then? Some types such as timestamp, union... have dynamic format strings which embody the type's parameters. You may want to add a comment to remind readers about this? (or perhaps simply arrange to keep the `arrowType.cDataFormatId` result alive in the `ExportSchema` class) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
