----------------------------------
Assignee: Will Jones
> [C++] Document Array::accept() and ArrayVisitor
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-15952
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15952
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++
> Affects Versions: 7.0.0
> Reporter: Will Jones
> Assignee: Will Jones
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 8.0.0
>
>
> We mention in the docs that:
> {quote}The classes arrow::Array and its subclasses provide strongly-typed
> accessors with support for the visitor pattern and other affordances.{quote}
> But ArrayVisitor class and the {{Array::Accept()}}
> [method|https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/b956ba51ea11d050745e09548e33aa61fdcbfddc/cpp/src/arrow/array/array_base.h#L136]
> are missing from the API docs. We should add those, and potentially also
> provide an example of using the visitor.
> Likely worth doing the same for TypeVisitor and ScalarVisitor. It would also
> be nice to document the performance implication of using ScalarVisitor vs
> ArrayVisitor. Also we use an "inline" version of the visitors; is that
> something we do/should expose in the API as well?
