+ <code class="function">SPI_execute_with_args</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 call specifies data types and values for each such symbol.
+ <em class="parameter"><code>read_only</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>count</code></em> have
+ the same interpretation as in <code class="function">SPI_execute</code>.
+ </p><p>
+ The main advantage of this routine compared to
+ <code class="function">SPI_execute</code> is that data values can be inserted
+ into the command without tedious quoting/escaping, and thus with much
+ less risk of SQL-injection attacks.
+ </p><p>
+ Similar results can be achieved with <code class="function">SPI_prepare</code> followed by
+ <code class="function">SPI_execute_plan</code>; however, when using this function
+ the query plan is always customized to the specific parameter values
+ provided.
+ For one-time query execution, this function should be preferred.
+ If the same command is to be executed with many different parameters,
+ either method might be faster, depending on the cost of re-planning
+ versus the benefit of custom plans.
