Array Builders#

class ArrayBuilder#

Base class for all data array builders.

This class provides a facilities for incrementally building the null bitmap (see Append methods) and as a side effect the current number of slots and the null count.

Note

Users are expected to use builders as one of the concrete types below. For example, ArrayBuilder* pointing to BinaryBuilder should be downcast before use.

Public Functions

inline ArrayBuilder *child(int i)#

For nested types.

Since the objects are owned by this class instance, we skip shared pointers and just return a raw pointer

virtual Status Resize(int64_t capacity)#

Ensure that enough memory has been allocated to fit the indicated number of total elements in the builder, including any that have already been appended.

Does not account for reallocations that may be due to variable size data, like binary values. To make space for incremental appends, use Reserve instead.

Parameters:

capacity[in] the minimum number of total array values to accommodate. Must be greater than the current capacity.

Returns:

Status

inline Status Reserve(int64_t additional_capacity)#

Ensure that there is enough space allocated to append the indicated number of elements without any further reallocation.

Overallocation is used in order to minimize the impact of incremental Reserve() calls. Note that additional_capacity is relative to the current number of elements rather than to the current capacity, so calls to Reserve() which are not interspersed with addition of new elements may not increase the capacity.

Parameters:

additional_capacity[in] the number of additional array values

Returns:

Status

virtual void Reset()#

Reset the builder.

virtual Status AppendNull() = 0#

inline VarLengthListLikeBuilder(MemoryPool *pool, std::shared_ptr<ArrayBuilder> const &value_builder, const std::shared_ptr<DataType> &type, int64_t alignment = kDefaultBufferAlignment)#

Use this constructor to incrementally build the value array along with offsets and null bitmap.

inline virtual Status Resize(int64_t capacity) override#

Ensure that enough memory has been allocated to fit the indicated number of total elements in the builder, including any that have already been appended.

Does not account for reallocations that may be due to variable size data, like binary values. To make space for incremental appends, use Reserve instead.

Parameters:

capacity[in] the minimum number of total array values to accommodate. Must be greater than the current capacity.

Returns:

Status

inline virtual void Reset() override#

Reset the builder.

inline Status Append(bool is_valid, int64_t list_length)#

Start a new variable-length list slot.

This function should be called before appending elements to the value builder. Elements appended to the value builder before this function is called for the first time, will not be members of any list value.

After this function is called, list_length elements SHOULD be appended to the values builder. If this contract is violated, the behavior is defined by the concrete builder implementation and SHOULD NOT be relied upon unless the caller is specifically building a [Large]List or [Large]ListView array.

For [Large]List arrays, the list slot length will be the number of elements appended to the values builder before the next call to Append* or Finish. For [Large]ListView arrays, the list slot length will be exactly list_length, but if Append* is called before at least list_length elements are appended to the values builder, the current list slot will share elements with the next list slots or an invalid [Large]ListView array will be generated because there aren’t enough elements in the values builder to fill the list slots.

If you’re building a [Large]List and don’t need to be compatible with [Large]ListView, then BaseListBuilder::Append(bool is_valid) is a simpler API.

Parameters:
  • is_valid – Whether the new list slot is valid

  • list_length – The number of elements in the list

Pre:

if is_valid is false, list_length MUST be 0

inline virtual Status AppendNull() final#

Append a null value to builder.

inline virtual Status AppendNulls(int64_t length) final#

Append a number of null values to builder.

inline virtual Status AppendEmptyValue() final#

Append an empty list slot.

Post:

Another call to Append* or Finish should be made before appending to the values builder to ensure list slot remains empty

inline virtual Status AppendEmptyValues(int64_t length) final#

Append an empty list slot.

Post:

Another call to Append* or Finish should be made before appending to the values builder to ensure the last list slot remains empty

virtual Status AppendValues(const offset_type *offsets, const offset_type *sizes, int64_t length, const uint8_t *valid_bytes) = 0#

Vector append.

For list-array builders, the sizes are inferred from the offsets. BaseListBuilder<T> provides an implementation that doesn’t take sizes, but this virtual function allows dispatching calls to both list-array and list-view-array builders (which need the sizes)

Parameters:
  • offsets – The offsets of the variable-length lists

  • sizes – The sizes of the variable-length lists

  • length – The number of offsets, sizes, and validity bits to append

  • valid_bytes – If passed, valid_bytes is of equal length to values, and any zero byte will be considered as a null for that slot

inline virtual Status AppendArraySlice(const ArraySpan &array, int64_t offset, int64_t length) override#

Append a range of values from an array.

The given array must be the same type as the builder.

inline Status Append(bool is_valid, int64_t list_length)#

Start a new variable-length list slot.

This function should be called before appending elements to the value builder. Elements appended to the value builder before this function is called for the first time, will not be members of any list value.

After this function is called, list_length elements SHOULD be appended to the values builder.

class ListBuilder : public arrow::BaseListBuilder<ListType>#
#include <arrow/array/builder_nested.h>

Builder class for variable-length list array value types.

To use this class, you must append values to the child array builder and use the Append function to delimit each distinct list value (once the values have been appended to the child array) or use the bulk API to append a sequence of offsets and null values.

A note on types. Per arrow/type.h all types in the c++ implementation are logical so even though this class always builds list array, this can represent multiple different logical types. If no logical type is provided at construction time, the class defaults to List<T> where t is taken from the value_builder/values that the object is constructed with.

class LargeListBuilder : public arrow::BaseListBuilder<LargeListType>#
#include <arrow/array/builder_nested.h>
