Otherwise it is a target list describing + the actual scan tuples. <code class="structfield">custom_scan_tlist</code> must be + provided for joins, and could be provided for scans if the custom scan + provider can compute some non-Var expressions. + <code class="structfield">custom_relids</code> is set by the core code to the set of + relations (range table indexes) that this scan node handles; except when + this scan is replacing a join, it will have only one member. + <code class="structfield">methods</code> must point to a (usually statically allocated) + object implementing the required custom scan methods, which are further + detailed below. + </p><p> + When a <code class="structname">CustomScan</code> scans a single relation, + <code class="structfield">scan.scanrelid</code> must be the range table index of the table + to be scanned.
