> Incomplete Python types cause a core dump when repr-ing
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-1201
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1201
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Python
> Affects Versions: 0.4.1
> Reporter: Phillip Cloud
> Assignee: Phillip Cloud
>
> The {{type}} member is {{NULL}} if you construct these types in the standard
> Python way, which causes a core dump when trying to inspect the type. I think
> the best we can do here is raise an exception indicating that the type isn't
> properly initialized and that these types aren't really meant for users to
> use directly.
> It might also be prudent to remove these from the toplevel
> {{pyarrow/__init__.py}} so that they aren't visible alongside the public API.
