Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-1808:
-------------------------------------
An alternative to changing the current {{arrow::RecordBatch}} implementation is
to create a new {{arrow::VirtualRecordBatch}} class as the base class, but then
we would need to change various APIs for classes that return
{{std::shared_ptr<RecordBatch>}} (like the IPC loaders).
> [C++] Make RecordBatch interface virtual to permit record batches that
> lazy-materialize columns

> Key: ARROW-1808
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1808
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++
> Reporter: Wes McKinney
> Fix For: 0.8.0
>
>
> This should be looked at soon to prevent having to define a different virtual
> interface for record batches. There are places where we are using the record
> batch constructor directly, and in some third party code (like MapD), so this
> might be good to get done for 0.8.0
