wjones127 opened a new issue, #45862:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/45862
### Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages,
version, and platform.
`vectorFromArray` can produce an invalid FixedSizeList array, where the
values length doesn't match the `list_size * length`. This makes other
implementations error when they receive an IPC batch from JS.
This only seems to happen when the null is at the end. If it's at the
beginning, it works fine.
```js
let arrow = require("apache-arrow");
let badArray = arrow.vectorFromArray(
[[1, 2, 3], null],
new arrow.FixedSizeList(3, new arrow.Field("item", new
arrow.Float32())),
);
badArray.getChildAt(0)
```
```
Vector [FloatVector<Float>] {
isValid: [Function (anonymous)],
get: [Function (anonymous)],
set: [Function (anonymous)],
indexOf: [Function (anonymous)],
_offsets: [ 0, 3 ],
data: [
Data {
type: [Float32 [Float]],
children: [],
dictionary: undefined,
offset: 0,
length: 3,
_nullCount: 0,
stride: 1,
values: [Float32Array],
nullBitmap: Uint8Array(0) []
}
],
type: Float32 [Float] { typeId: 3, precision: 1 },
stride: 1,
numChildren: 0,
length: 3 // <-- This is incorrect!
}
```
```js
let goodArray = arrow.vectorFromArray(
[null, [1, 2, 3]],
new arrow.FixedSizeList(3, new arrow.Field("item", new
arrow.Float32())),
);
goodArray.getChildAt(0) // null
```
```
Vector [FloatVector<Float>] {
isValid: [Function (anonymous)],
get: [Function (anonymous)],
set: [Function (anonymous)],
indexOf: [Function (anonymous)],
_offsets: [ 0, 6 ],
data: [
Data {
type: [Float32 [Float]],
children: [],
dictionary: undefined,
offset: 0,
length: 6,
_nullCount: 3,
stride: 1,
values: [Float32Array],
nullBitmap: [Uint8Array]
}
],
type: Float32 [Float] { typeId: 3, precision: 1 },
stride: 1,
numChildren: 0,
length: 6 // Correct :)
}
```
We caught this when reading via IPC into arrow-rs.
