Expand description

Layout specification for a single data type buffer

Variants

FixedWidth

Fields

byte_width: usize

each element has a fixed width

VariableWidth

Variable width, such as string data for utf8 data

BitMap

Buffer holds a bitmap.

Note: Unlike the C++ implementation, the null/validity buffer is handled specially rather than as another of the buffers in the spec, so this variant is only used for the Boolean type.

AlwaysNull

Buffer is always null. Unused currently in Rust implementation, (used in C++ for Union type)
