David Li commented on ARROW-8665:
---------------------------------
No worries! I ran into this while trying to find a way to get the validity
buffer to be resized when trying to work around ARROW-8666. But thanks to your
suggestion there I should be set for our use case.

> Assignee: Liya Fan
> Priority: Major
>
> The writer always iterates through all BaseWriters, and an array of 128
> BaseWriters is allocated. So if you do not have 128 typeIds and do not touch
> all of them, setPosition will give you an exception.
