Neal Richardson commented on ARROW-3750: ---------------------------------------- See also ARROW-5956 for possibly relevant discussion > [R] Pass various wrapped Arrow objects created in Python into R with zero > copy via reticulate > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ARROW-3750 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3750 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: R > Reporter: Wes McKinney > Priority: Major > Fix For: 1.0.0 > > > A user may wish to use some functionality available only in pyarrow using > reticulate; it would be useful to be able to construct an R wrapper object to > the C++ object inside the corresponding Python type, e.g. {{pyarrow.Table}}. > This probably will require some new functions to return the memory address of > the shared_ptr/unique_ptr inside the Cython types so that a function on the R > side can copy the smart pointer and create the corresponding R wrapper type > cc [~pitrou] -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
