NAME

6       SPI_returntuple - prepare to return a tuple as a Datum
7

SYNOPSIS

9       HeapTupleHeader SPI_returntuple(HeapTuple row, TupleDesc rowdesc)
10

DESCRIPTION

12       SPI_returntuple makes a copy of a row in the upper executor context,
13       returning it in the form of a row type Datum. The returned pointer need
14       only be converted to Datum via PointerGetDatum before returning.
15
16       This function can only be used while connected to SPI. Otherwise, it
17       returns NULL and sets SPI_result to SPI_ERROR_UNCONNECTED.
18
19       Note that this should be used for functions that are declared to return
20       composite types. It is not used for triggers; use SPI_copytuple for
21       returning a modified row in a trigger.
22

ARGUMENTS

24       HeapTuple row
25           row to be copied
26
27       TupleDesc rowdesc
28           descriptor for row (pass the same descriptor each time for most
29           effective caching)
30

RETURN VALUE

32       HeapTupleHeader pointing to copied row, or NULL on error (see
33       SPI_result for an error indication)
