             Summary: Specific constructor for Decimal128Array
                 Key: ARROW-9798
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-9798
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: C++
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: Mathieu Dutour Sikiric


I would like to create a Decimal128Array in arrow.

For the StructArray, ListArray, MapArray we have constructors taking buffers, 
null_bitmap and such and the way to create arrays is clear.

However, the only constructor available for Decimal128Array is with an 
ArrayData which seems strange. Why can't we have a constructor using a data 
buffer and a bitmap buffer?

If that is not possible, I would be interested with code for creating a 
Decimal128Array from a data and bitmap buffer.
