Wes McKinney updated ARROW-4799: -------------------------------- Fix Version/s: (was: 0.13.0) 0.14.0 > [C++] Propose alternative strategy for handling Operation logical output types > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: ARROW-4799 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-4799 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: C++ > Reporter: Wes McKinney > Priority: Major > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > > Currently in the prototype work in ARROW-4782, operations are being "boxed" > in a strongly typed Expr types. An alternative structure would be for an > operation to define a virtual > {code} > virtual std::shared_ptr<ArgType> out_type() const = 0; > {code} > Where {{ArgType}} is some class that encodes the arity (array vs. scalar > vs....) and value type (if any) that is emitted by the operation. > Operations emitting multiple pieces of data would need some kind of "tuple" > object output.
