What's Changed

For variable-size binary layout arrays, BufferImportTypeVisitor currently derives the length of the value buffer by calculating the difference between the last and first offset. When the first offset is not zero, this is actually incorrect and leads to out of bounds errors when attempting to read values from the imported array.

Instead, BufferImportTypeVisitor should simply use the last offset value as the length of the value buffer. This PR makes that change.

Just FYI, I bumped into this issue when attempting to import an array originating from DataFusion. A test query of the form SELECT column1 FROM VALUES ('a'), ('b'), ('c'), ('d') LIMIT 2 OFFSET 1; returns a slice of the full set of values. The values buffer contains all the original values, and the offsets buffer contains 1 and 2 as values to handle the offset from the query.

Closes #709 .

This PR should have the 'bug-fix' label, but I don't seem to be able to apply that myself.

arrow-java doesn't support slicing in general, so for offset-based arrays, other code downstream may not work properly if the first offset is nonzero. I think the longer term fix is to either detect this and copy or decide to properly implement slicing. That said fixing an out-of-bounds is always good.

LGTM.

Do you mind opening a new issue to link this PR to? The original issue has more discussion. In particular I think the cross-language integration tests need to be improved to cover this case

…-sized arrays (apache#707)

## What's Changed

For variable-size binary layout arrays, BufferImportTypeVisitor
currently derives the length of the value buffer by calculating the
difference between the last and first offset. When the first offset is
not zero, this is actually incorrect and leads to out of bounds errors
when attempting to read values from the imported array.

Instead, BufferImportTypeVisitor should simply use the last offset value
as the length of the value buffer. This PR makes that change.

Just FYI, I bumped into this issue when attempting to import an array
originating from DataFusion. A test query of the form `SELECT column1
FROM VALUES ('a'), ('b'), ('c'), ('d') LIMIT 2 OFFSET 1;` returns a
slice of the full set of values. The values buffer contains all the
original values, and the offsets buffer contains 1 and 2 as values to
handle the offset from the query.

Closes apache#709.
