> > The behavior in these cases was debated when we were working on the spec. We ultimately decided to disallow writers from producing them, but I think it is a best practice to ensure that the read behavior is predictable, accepts even slightly malformed cases, and has consistent behavior depending on the projected columns. > > @rdblue I think it would be worthwhile to add wording to the spec which defines the consistent behavior desired for readers in these malformed cases rather than it becoming just a "de facto" standard based on convention. The wording can specify that while it's invalid for a writer to produce these that in those cases the spec defines what the reader behavior _should_ be. Here is a proposal for how to make it clearer in the tests that this is an invalid file: - https://github.com/apache/parquet-testing/pull/90#discussion_r2257912290 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
