Kouhei Sutou created ARROW-631:
----------------------------------

             Summary: [GLib] Import C API (C++ API wrapper) based on GLib from https://github.com/kou/arrow-glib
                 Key: ARROW-631
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-631
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Kouhei Sutou


Supporting Apache Arrow in many languages are important.

Providing GLib based C API will increase Apache Arrow bindings.
GLib based C API can use GObject Introspection ( https://wiki.gnome.org/action/show/Projects/GObjectIntrospection ). GObject Introspection is a middleware layer for creating language bindings automatically.

I already created Ruby bindings for Apache Arrow with this GLib based C API: https://github.com/kou/red-arrow
Lua, Go and other language bindings will be created automatically.
