In addition to the problem of top level validity buffer, I think there is another problem to discuss: Java is using the ordinal of the minor type as the type id, and this is not aligning with the C++ implementation/specification. This PR works around the problem by supporting two modes. However, the C++ and Java implementations are not really aligning, IMO. Do we have a plan to mitigate this? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
