Krisztian Szucs commented on ARROW-9022: ---------------------------------------- It's not trivial which behaviour to choose. We may introduce options for the arithmetic kernels to select the right one. > [C++][Compute] Make Add function safe for numeric limits > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ARROW-9022 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-9022 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: C++ > Reporter: Krisztian Szucs > Assignee: Krisztian Szucs > Priority: Major > Labels: pull-request-available > Fix For: 1.0.0 > > Time Spent: 50m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > Currently the output type of the Add function is identical with the argument > types which makes it unsafe to add numeric limit values, so instead of using > {{(int8, int8) -> int8}} signature we should use {{((int8, int8) -> int16}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
