ArrowBasedBuilder _prepare_split parse_schema breaks on nested structures
State: closed

I tried using the Json dataloader to load some JSON lines files. but get an exception in the parse_schema function.

If I create the dataset imperatively, using a pyarrow table, the dataset is created correctly. If I override the `_prepare_split` method to avoid calling the validate schema, the dataset can load as well.
