Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-3831:
-------------------------------------
What do you think about adding a second {{Decompress}} virtual method that will
return the output length?
https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/cpp/src/arrow/util/compression.h#L106
The default implementation could be NotImplemented for codecs that do not
support this
> [C++] arrow::util::Codec::Decompress() doesn't return decompressed data size
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-3831
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3831
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: C++
> Affects Versions: 0.11.1
> Reporter: Kouhei Sutou
> Priority: Major
>
> We can't know decompressed data size when we only have compressed data. The
> current {{arrow::util::Codec::Decompress()}} doesn't return decompressed data
> size. So we can't know which data in {{output_buffer}} can be used.
> FYI: {{arrow::util::Codec::Compress()}} returns compressed data size.
