-----------------------------------
Summary: [Doc][Python] Update note about bundling Arrow C++ on
Windows
Key: ARROW-18341
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-18341
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation, Python
Reporter: Alenka Frim
Assignee: Alenka Frim
Fix For: 11.0.0
There is a note on the python development page under Widnows section about
bundling the Arrow C++ libraries with Python extensions:
[https://arrow.apache.org/docs/dev/developers/python.html#building-on-windows]
This note can be revised:
* if you are using conda, the fact that Arrow C++ libs are not bundled is fine
since conda will ensure those libs are found.
* If you are not using conda, you have to ensure those libs can be found:
either by updating {{PATH}} (every time before importing pyarrow), or either by
bundling them (... using the {{PYARROW_BUNDLE_ARROW_CPP}} env variable instead
of {{{}--bundle-arrow-cpp{}}}). With the caveat those won't be automatically
updated when rebuilding the arrow-cpp libs then.
