Antoine Pitrou created ARROW-6033:
-------------------------------------
Summary: [C++] Provide an initialization and/or compatibility
check function
Key: ARROW-6033
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-6033
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Wish
Components: C++
Reporter: Antoine Pitrou
Fix For: 1.0.0
Some Arrow functions will fail if e.g. the CPU doesn't have the right
instruction set extensions (e.g. POPCNT on x86 - see ARROW-5381). We may want
to provide a global function that checks requirements and/or otherwise
initializes Arrow internal structures (the single one I can think of is
`InitializeUTF8()` in `util/utf8.h`).
