.SH "NAME"
SPI_connect \- connect a procedure to the SPI manager
.\" SPI_connect
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
.nf
int SPI_connect(void)
.fi
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBSPI_connect\fR
opens a connection from a procedure invocation to the SPI manager\&. You must call this function if you want to execute commands through SPI\&. Some utility SPI functions can be called from unconnected procedures\&.
.PP
If your procedure is already connected,
\fBSPI_connect\fR
will return the error code
SPI_ERROR_CONNECT\&. This could happen if a procedure that has called
\fBSPI_connect\fR
directly calls another procedure that calls
\fBSPI_connect\fR\&. While recursive calls to the
SPI
manager are permitted when an SQL command called through SPI invokes another function that uses
SPI, directly nested calls to
\fBSPI_connect\fR
and
\fBSPI_finish\fR
are forbidden\&. (But see
\fBSPI_push\fR
and
\fBSPI_pop\fR\&.)
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
SPI_OK_CONNECT
.RS 4
on success

SPI_ERROR_CONNECT
