Module binaryview 

Definition and implementation of variable-length binary types.

All types are specializations of the BinaryViewVector type, which is represented internally by BinaryViews. BinaryViews are identical to the BinaryView type defined by the Arrow specification, which are inspired by “German” strings.

Structs

BinaryType
