Support DELTA_BINARY_PACKED and DELTA_BYTE_ARRAY #574

Closed

Description

@kazuyukitanimura

What is the problem the feature request solves?

There are some tests in Spark 4.0 that uses parquet.writer.version=v2 (ParquetTypeWideningSuite).

The V2 write writes with delta encoding. Comet currently cannot read such files

    IIRC, the vectorized versions of these encodings in Spark did not improve performance much over the row based implementation in the parquet library

    Closing as superseded: the new native_datafusion and native_iceberg_compat scans (default spark.comet.scan.impl=auto) read DELTA_BINARY_PACKED / DELTA_BYTE_ARRAY / DELTA_LENGTH_BYTE_ARRAY via arrow-rs. Please reopen if there is still a need to support these encodings in the legacy native_comet scan.
