-----------------------------

             Summary: [Rust] Dictionary-encoding is out of spec
                 Key: ARROW-10128
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-10128
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Rust
            Reporter: Jorge


According to [the 
spec|https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html#physical-memory-layout],
 every array can be dictionary-encoded, on which its values are encoded by a 
unique set of values.

However, none of our arrays support this encoding and the physical memory 
layout of this encoding is not being fulfilled.

We have a DictionaryArray, but, AFAIK, it does not respect the physical memory 
layout set out by the spec.
