Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-5145:
-------------------------------------
[~pitrou] I'm not sure about that. It seems neither appropriate to make the
application crash nor to be refactored to return Status in this instance. In
our developer instructions we should provide guidance around debugging
segfaults and include making a debug build as part of the approach. We could
also add an option to enable DCHECK assertions in release builds (e.g. this may
be helpful on windows)

> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: C++
> Affects Versions: 0.13.0
> Environment: CentOS 7
> devtoolset-8 Software Collection
> g++ (GCC) 8.2.1 20180905 (Red Hat 8.2.1-3)

> I am a new user of the C++ library trying to output data that contains
> dictionary columns using {{RecordBatchFileWriter}}. The attached code seg
> faults, it is able to write a {{Feather}} file but fails when I use the
> {{RecordBatchFileWriter}}.
> I am not sure whether I am using the library correctly, but the produced
> Feather file loads properly in Julia and has the expected data. I installed
> Arrow following the [instructions|https://arrow.apache.org/install/] for
> CentOS.
> Here is the stacktrace of the executable compiled with the command 'g++ -g
> -larrow repro.cpp' :
