Postgres SPI cursor options: Where is a complete list? / What are the default options?

Question

From the Postgresql documentation:

int cursorOptions
    Integer bit mask of cursor options; zero produces default behavior.

What is the default behavior? Where is a complete list of cursor options? I've been looking through the documentation for an hour now. Can someone provide a link or point me in the right direction?

Answer 1

I am compiling a list of cursorOptions as I peel through the documentation to help save the others the trouble.

Defined in <src/include/nodes/parsenodes.h> :

CURSOR_OPT_BINARY (0x0001)

CURSOR_OPT_SCROLL (0x0002) is required by several SPI commands. Setting this option will allow for more complex movement through cursors. Further details are explained in the documentation of SPI_cursor_fetch , SPI_cursor_move , SPI_scroll_cursor_fetch , SPI_scroll_cursor_move

CURSOR_OPT_NO_SCROLL (0x0004)

CURSOR_OPT_INSENSITIVE (0x0008)

CURSOR_OPT_HOLD (0x0010) is ignored by SPI_prepare_cursor . However, it's behavior for SPI_prepare_params and SPI_cursor_open_with_args is not specified in the documentation.

CURSOR_OPT_CUSTOM_PLAN (0x0020)

CURSOR_OPT_FAST_PLAN (0x0040)

CURSOR_OPT_GENERIC_PLAN (0x0080)
