Joris Van den Bossche commented on ARROW-8173:
----------------------------------------------
There are {{ChunkedArray::Validate}} and {{ValidateFull}} methods that check
this (eg in python this is called in some of the constructors)
> [C++] Validate ChunkedArray()'s arguments

> Key: ARROW-8173
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-8173
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: C++
> Affects Versions: 0.16.0
> Reporter: Ben Kietzman
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.0.0
>
>
> ChunkedArray has constraints on type uniformity of chunks which are currently
> only expressed in comments. At minimum debug checks should be added to ensure
> (for example) that an explicit type is shared by all chunks, at best the
> public constructor should be replaced with
> {{Result<std::shared_ptr<ChunkedArray>> ChunkedArray::Make(...)}}.
