Rationale for this change
arrow-catandarrow-lsstopped whenReader.Nextreturned false but did not inspectReader.Err. A record read failure could therefore be reported as a successful end of stream.arrow-catcould exit successfully after partial output, whilearrow-lscould print a record count for an incomplete stream.What changes are included in this PR?
Check
Reader.Errafter iteration in both commands and return it after releasing the reader.arrow-lsnow prints the record count only after the stream completes successfully. Regression tests use a valid schema followed by truncated record metadata.Are these changes tested?
Yes:
go test ./arrow/ipc/cmd/arrow-cat ./arrow/ipc/cmd/arrow-lsgo test -race -count=1 ./arrow/ipc/cmd/arrow-cat ./arrow/ipc/cmd/arrow-lsAre there any user-facing changes?
Both command-line tools now return an error for a failed record read instead of reporting success. Valid stream output is unchanged.
