> [R] Don't store "data.table" pointer in metadata
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-10088
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-10088
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: R
> Affects Versions: 1.0.1
> Reporter: Kyle Kavanagh
> Priority: Major
>
> Issues with metadata$r:
> * The ".internal.selfref" attribute from data.table is an externalptr, which
> won't be valid to serialize and restore, so it needs to be dropped (and then
> presumably also the data.table class too)
> -----
> Original description:
> I've got a proprietary dataset where one of the columns is an integer64 but
> all of the values would fit within 32bits. As I understand it, arrow/feather
> will downcast that column when the data is read back into R (not ideal IMO,
> but not an issue generally). However, I'm having some trouble with a
> specific dataset.
> When I read in the data, the column is set to the class "integer64", however
> the column type (typeof) is 'integer' and not 'double', which is the
> underlying type used by bit64. This mismatch causes R data.table to error
> out
> ([https://github.com/Rdatatable/data.table/blob/master/src/rbindlist.c#L325)]
> I do not have any issue with integer64 columns which have values > 2^32, and
> suspiciously I am also unable to recreate the issue by manually creating a
> data.table with an int64 column with small values (e.g
> data.table(col=as.integer64(c(1,2,3))) )
> I did look thru the arrow::r cpp source and couldnt find an obvious case
> where the underlying storage array would be an integer but also have the
> 'integer64' class attr assigned... A fix would either be to remove the
> integer64 class attr, or ensure that the underlying data store is a REALSXP
> instead of INTEGERSXP
> My company's network policies wont let me upload the sample dataset, hoping
> to see if this triggers an immediate thoughts. If not, I can try to figure
> our how to upload the dataset or otherwise provide details from it as
> requested.
