[jira] [Created] (ARROW-80) Segmentation fault on len(Array) for empty arrays

Uwe L. Korn created ARROW-80:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Segmentation fault on len(Array) for empty arrays
                 Key: ARROW-80
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-80
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Python
            Reporter: Uwe L. Korn
            Assignee: Uwe L. Korn


When creating an Array with no underlying storage (do we want to allow this?), i.e. before init is called, len will run into a segmentation fault.

This is especially annoying if you only want to try it out in an ipython shell and the line `pyarrow.array.Array()` directly crashes as IPython tries to print the repr.
