> I wonder if this initiative enables free integration of third-party compute functions/kernels? That is, users are able to register there own compute functions/kernels from the application, without having to put them into arrow-compute codebase (and recompiling) This is something that can be done today just by leveraging the `FunctionRegistry->AddFunction` functionality from an external codebase by using the existing APIs: ```c++ // Define and register custom compute functions auto func = std::make_shared<ScalarFunction>("custom_add", Arity::Binary(), /*doc=*/FunctionDoc::Empty()); // Add Int64 kernel ScalarKernel kernel64; // ExecAddInt64 function not shown for simplicity kernel64.exec = ExecAddInt64; kernel64.signature = KernelSignature::Make({int64(), int64()}, int64()); ARROW_RETURN_NOT_OK(func->AddKernel(kernel64)); // Add kernel implementation ARROW_RETURN_NOT_OK(registry->AddFunction(std::move(func))); ``` The current PR won't change that behavior. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
