[jira] [Commented] (ARROW-182) [C++] Remove Array::Validate virtual function and make a separate method

["Wes McKinney (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-182:
------------------------------------

I renamed this JIRA and marked it for 0.4.0. I would like to remove the {{Validate}} virtual from {{arrow::Array}} and instead implement the validation separately (similar to how {{Array::Equals}} is implemented now)

> We should Validate the bitmask is well formed for child arrays (all bits that don't correspond to a slot should be zero).    Once the validate method is added we should be able to make the parent classes method virtual to avoid new implementors missing it.
