int SPI_execute_extended(const char *<em class="parameter"><code>command</code></em>,

</pre></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.8.12.8.6.5"><h2>Description</h2><p>
   <code class="function">SPI_execute_extended</code> executes a command that might
   include references to externally supplied parameters.  The command text
   refers to a parameter as <code class="literal">$<em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em></code>,
   and the <em class="parameter"><code>options-&gt;params</code></em> object (if supplied)
   provides values and type information for each such symbol.
   Various execution options can be specified
   in the <em class="parameter"><code>options</code></em> struct, too.
  </p><p>
   The <em class="parameter"><code>options-&gt;params</code></em> object should normally
   mark each parameter with the <code class="literal">PARAM_FLAG_CONST</code> flag,
   since a one-shot plan is always used for the query.
  </p><p>
   If <em class="parameter"><code>options-&gt;dest</code></em> is not NULL, then result
   tuples are passed to that object as they are generated by the executor,
   instead of being accumulated in <code class="varname">SPI_tuptable</code>.  Using
   a caller-supplied <code class="literal">DestReceiver</code> object is particularly
   helpful for queries that might generate many tuples, since the data can
   be processed on-the-fly instead of being accumulated in memory.

   Callers should always zero out the entire <em class="parameter"><code>options</code></em>
   struct, then fill whichever fields they want to set.  This ensures forward
   compatibility of code, since any fields that are added to the struct in
   future will be defined to behave backwards-compatibly if they are zero.
   The currently available <em class="parameter"><code>options</code></em> fields are:

      This field is present for consistency
