----------------------------------
Summary: [C++] Let users set Windows timezone db path with
environment variable
Key: ARROW-16024
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16024
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: C++
Affects Versions: 7.0.0
Reporter: Will Jones
In ARROW-13168, we enabled a runtime option to set the location of the timezone
database on Windows. For developers, the unit tests read the
ARROW_TIMEZONE_DATABASE environment variable. It might be helpful for users to
let them use that variable, but the question is where to put the
initialization. Also, should it have precedent over the initialize method? If
it did, it could override the R initialization that points to the tzdb package.
