[jira] [Updated] (ARROW-5215) [C++] Need a way to change integer size in DictBuilder and AdaptiveIntBuilder

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-5215?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Antoine Pitrou updated ARROW-5215:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently, there's no way to choose the index type with DictionaryBuilder. Consequently, it's difficult to implement e.g. casts to a specific dictionary type (instead the DictionaryBuilder will select the smallest possible integer size for the index type).

This will allow implementing "null to dict" casting.
