<code class="function">SPI_modifytuple</code> creates a new row by
substituting new values for selected columns, copying the original
row's columns at other positions. The input row is not modified.
The new row is returned in the upper executor context.

This function can only be used while connected to SPI.
Otherwise, it returns NULL and sets <code class="varname">SPI_result</code> to
<code class="symbol">SPI_ERROR_UNCONNECTED</code>.

null. (In the latter case, the actual value in the corresponding
