Chao Sun commented on ARROW-2583:
---------------------------------
I just started to work on this recently and the changes are more involved than
I expected. I think it will be difficult to make to 0.10.0 release.
> [Rust] Buffer should be typeless
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-2583
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-2583
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Rust
> Reporter: Andy Grove
> Assignee: Chao Sun
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 0.11.0
>
>
> See comments in [https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/1971] for background on
> this but the summary is that Buffer should just deal with untyped memory e.g.
> `* const u8` and all type-handling should be moved to the Array layer e.g.
> `BufferArray<T>`.
> This would be more consistent with the other implementations.
