I think one could (the reporter did) make the case for wanting to create an empty table with a Schema, though maybe there should be a different mechanism for that. Either way, it's always better to error than segfault, and errors with helpful messages are even better. You can always do something like this ```r Table$create(a = integer(0), b = integer(0), schema = schema(a = int32(), b = int32())) ``` ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
