------------------------------------
PR: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/441
> [C++] Remove extern template declarations for NumericArray<T> types
> -------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-711
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-711
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: C++
> Reporter: Wes McKinney
> Assignee: Wes McKinney
>
> It seems that linkers have diverging semantics around visibility when using
> the {{extern template}} declaration (see linker errors in
> https://ci.appveyor.com/project/ApacheSoftwareFoundation/arrow/build/1.0.841).
> Since the only thing impacted right now is the {{NumericArray<T>}}
> constructor, removing these doesn't seem too onerous. I ran the existing
> benchmarks and looked at the library sizes before and after, and there
> doesn't appear to be a meaningful difference.
