[jira] [Commented] (ARROW-15119) [C++] Some filesystems may allow reading directories
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15119?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17460094#comment-17460094 ]
Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-15119:
----------------------------------------
This sounds fine to me as long as it's an optional deviation in the generic tests.

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++
> Reporter: Carlos O'Ryan
> Priority: Major

> The generic filesystem tests assert that reading a directory should fail. If directories are implemented as described in ARROW-15114 this would be expensive to implement (at least in the near future), as it would require two roundtrips to the service to fetch the object metadata.
> I would rather change the generic tests to allow reading directories, and if we find a cheaper way to fix this later we can restore the tests.
