icexelloss commented on issue #1297: ARROW-1785: [Format/C++/Java] Remove 
VectorLayout from serialized schemas
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/1297#issuecomment-348637341
 
 
   @siddharthteotia `VectorLayout` and `TypeLayout` are no longer part of the 
serialized schema. 
   
   `VectorLayout` and `ArrowVectorType` are renamed to `BufferLayout` and 
`BufferType` and they are just internal classes now. 
   
   Other changes to Java are to Reader/Writer classes 0- they no longer 
read/write type layout when reading/writing schema.

>
>
> Based on the discussions on the mailing list, we should remove the 
> VectorLayout metadata from the Flatbuffers spec for 0.8.0 since we are 
> already breaking the metadata. We should instead make the buffer layouts an 
> immutable part of the format specification so there is no ambiguity about 
> what buffers accompany each type of field in an Arrow payload
> see also ARROW-1693
