Pradeep Garigipati commented on ARROW-6276:
-------------------------------------------

[~wesm] [~apitrou] Is the following kind of change that is intended ? or the 
operator overload should take a scalar of NumericType ?


{code:java}
bool BooleanArray::operator[](int64_t i) const { return GetView(i); }
value_type NumericArray::operator[](int64_t i) const { return GetView(i); }
TypeClass::DayMilliseconds DayTimeIntervalArray::operator[](int64_t i) const { 
return GetView(i); }
TypeClass::MonthDayNanos MonthDayNanoIntervalArray::operator[](int64_t i) const 
{ return GetView(i); }{code}

> [C++] Add operator[] to some concrete Array implementations?

> I have occasionally been in situations where I want to pass in e.g. 
> {{Int32Array}} or {{BooleanArray}} into a template that also can accept STL 
> sequence types like {{std::vector<bool>}} -- in such cases the main API of 
> interest is {{[]}}. Would there be interest in aliasing {{operator[]}} to 
> return the result of {{GetView}} (or to deprecate {{GetView}} in favor of 
> {{operator[]}})?
