*
* tuplestore.h
* Generalized routines for temporary tuple storage.
*
* This module handles temporary storage of tuples for purposes such
* as Materialize nodes, hashjoin batch files, etc. It is essentially
* a dumbed-down version of tuplesort.c; it does no sorting of tuples
* but can only store and regurgitate a sequence of tuples. However,
* because no sort is required, it is allowed to start reading the sequence
2003-08-04 02:43:34 +02:00
* before it has all been written. This is particularly useful for cursors,
* because it allows random access within the already-scanned portion of
* a query without having to process the underlying scan to completion.
* A temporary file is used to handle the data if it exceeds the
* space limit specified by the caller.
*
* Beginning in Postgres 8.2, what is stored is just MinimalTuples;
* callers cannot expect valid system columns in regurgitated tuples.
* Also, we have changed the API to return tuples in TupleTableSlots,
* so that there is a check to prevent attempted access to system columns.
