Bryan Cutler commented on ARROW-2604:
-------------------------------------
I added a convenience method to set the vector using the friendly type
{{org.apache.arrow.vector.util.Text}}, which is already returned by
{{getObject(int index)}}. A {{Text}} instance can easily be made from a string
using the constructor {{Text(String string)}}
> [Java] Add method overload for VarCharVector.set(int,String)
> ------------------------------------------------------------

> I would have expected that this is a very typical use case but at the moment
> I only see code that first needs to fill a {{VarCharHolder before passing it
> to VarCharVecttor.set()}}. We could also provide this as a convenience
> overload.
> Correct me please if I missed a convenience feature. I'm still new to the
> Java side.
