Uwe Korn created ARROW-9401: ------------------------------- Summary: [C++/Python] Support necessary functionality to have an Arrow-string type in pandas Key: ARROW-9401 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-9401 Project: Apache Arrow Issue Type: Wish Components: C++, Python Reporter: Uwe Korn Assignee: Uwe Korn Fix For: 2.0.0
This should serve as an umbrella issue for the needed functionality to have an Apache Arrow backed string type in {{pandas}}. In addition to the string kernels, we probably need to implement some more support functionality to efficiently the {{pandas}} interfaces. Some of these functions are already present in {{fletcher}} but a native string type in {{pandas}} should not have a hard dependency on {{numba}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
