----------------------------------

             Summary: Limited iOS support
                 Key: ARROW-8795
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-8795
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: C++
    Affects Versions: 0.17.0
            Reporter: Ilija Puaca


We at Unfolded have been making use of Arrow in our native implementation of deck.gl ([repo here|[https://github.com/UnfoldedInc/deck.gl-native]]). As iOS is one of the platforms we plan on supporting, we've spent some time building Arrow so that we can make use of it on iOS.

 

There is a detailed writeup on issues we've encountered while doing so [here|[https://github.com/UnfoldedInc/deck.gl-native-dependencies/blob/master/docs/iOS-BUILD.md#arrow-v0170]]. Some of them had to do with cmake, but there were a few updates that had to be made to Arrow source.

 

As noted in the writeup, we use a limited set of optional features that cover our needs right now (json, csv, filesystem). With this in mind, and knowing that we did not resolve issues across all optional features (known issues building parquet support due to Boost/Thrift dependencies), would incorporating some of these fixes, or supporting iOS in general, be of any interest at this stage?
