Wes McKinney updated ARROW-3896:
--------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 0.14.0)
> [MATLAB] Decouple MATLAB-Arrow conversion logic from Feather file specific
> logic
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-3896
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3896
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: MATLAB
> Reporter: Kevin Gurney
> Assignee: Kevin Gurney
> Priority: Major
> Original Estimate: 72h
> Remaining Estimate: 72h
>
> Currently, the logic for converting between a MATLAB mxArray and various
> Arrow data structures (arrow::Table, arrow::Array, etc.) is tightly coupled
> and fairly tangled up with the logic specific to handling Feather files. It
> would be helpful to factor out these conversions into a more generic
> "mlarrow" conversion layer component so that it can be reused in the future
> for use cases other than Feather support. Furthermore, this would be helpful
> to enforce a cleaner separation of concerns.
> It would be nice to start off with this refactoring work up front before
> adding support for more datatypes to the MATLAB featherread/featherwrite
> functions, so that we can start off with a clean base upon which to expand
> moving forward.
