Matthias Vallentin commented on ARROW-17839:
--------------------------------------------
Can you try any other type than {{{}int8{}}}? For example, {{uint8}} fails for
me:
{code:java}
>>> pa.array(['a', 'b', 'a'], pa.dictionary(pa.uint8(), pa.string())).type
DictionaryType(dictionary<values=string, indices=int8, ordered=0>){code}
> [Python] Cannot create RecordBatch with nested struct containing extension
> type

> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Python
> Affects Versions: 9.0.0
> Environment: macOS 12.5.1 on an Apple M1 Ultra.
> Reporter: Matthias Vallentin

> I'm running into the following issue:
> {code:java}
> pyarrow.lib.ArrowNotImplementedError: Unsupported cast to
> extension<vast.address<AddressType>> from fixed_size_binary[16]{code}
> Use case: I want to create a record batch that contains this type:
> {code:java}
> pa.struct([("address", AddressType()), ("length", pa.uint8())]){code}
> Here, {{AddressType}} is an extension type that models an IP address
> ({{{}pa.binary(16){}}}).
> Please find attached a self-contained example that illustrates the issue.
