# Which issue does this PR close? Part of https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/4886 Related to https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/pull/6965 # Rationale for this change Avro supports arrays as a core data type, but previously arrow-avro had incomplete decoding logic to handle them. As a result, any Avro file containing array fields would fail to parse correctly within the Arrow ecosystem. This PR addresses this gap by: 1. Completing the implementation of explicit `Array` -> `List` decoding: It completes the `Decoder::Array` logic that reads array blocks in Avro format and constructs an Arrow `ListArray`. Overall, these changes expand Arrow’s Avro reader capabilities, allowing users to work with array-encoded data in a standardized Arrow format. # What changes are included in this PR? **1. arrow-avro/src/reader/record.rs:** * Completed the Array decoding path which leverages blockwise reads of Avro array data. * Implemented decoder unit tests for Array types. # Are there any user-facing changes? N/A
