[jira] [Created] (ARROW-3498) [R] Make IPC APIs consistent
Wes McKinney created ARROW-3498:
-----------------------------------
Summary: [R] Make IPC APIs consistent
Key: ARROW-3498
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3498
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Bug
Components: R
Reporter: Wes McKinney
Fix For: 0.12.0
There are many flavors of IPC functions:
* Read a complete IPC stream (where schema is included in the first message(s))
* Read an IPC "file"
* Read a schema only from a point in a buffer
* Read a record batch given a known schema and the memory address of an encapsulated IPC message
These are partly available in R now, but with names that aren't necessarily consistent. We should review each use case and normalize the API names
