Since prepared statements only exist for the duration of a session, the prepared statement must have been created by a +\fBPREPARE\fR +statement executed earlier in the current session\&. +.PP +If the +\fBPREPARE\fR +statement that created the statement specified some parameters, a compatible set of parameters must be passed to the +\fBEXECUTE\fR +statement, or else an error is raised\&. Note that (unlike functions) prepared statements are not overloaded based on the type or number of their parameters; the name of a prepared statement must be unique within a database session\&. +.PP +For more information on the creation and usage of prepared statements, see +\fBPREPARE\fR(7)\&. +.SH "PARAMETERS" +.PP +\fIname\fR +.RS 4 +The name of the prepared statement to execute\&. +.RE +.PP +\fIparameter\fR +.RS 4 +The actual value of a parameter to the prepared statement\&.

This version of the +\fBEXECUTE\fR +statement also uses a somewhat different syntax\&. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +\fBDEALLOCATE\fR(7), \fBPREPARE\fR(7) -- cgit v1.2.3
