Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-6180:
---------------------------------------
I don't really understand what this does concretely. Is it some kind of
BufferReader over some area of memory maintained by the RandomAccessFile itself?
> [C++] Create InputStream that references a segment of a RandomAccessFile

> If different threads wants to do buffered reads over different portions of a
> file (and they are unable to create their own separate file handles), they
> may clobber each other. I would propose creating an object that keeps the
> RandomAccessFile internally and implements the InputStream API in a way that
> is safe from other threads changing the file position
