 * execProcnode.c
 *   contains dispatch functions which call the appropriate "initialize",
 *   "get a tuple", and "cleanup" routines for the given node type.
 *   If the node has children, then it will presumably call ExecInitNode,
 *   ExecProcNode, or ExecEndNode on its subnodes and do the appropriate
 *   processing.

/*
 *   NOTES
 *      This used to be three files.  It is now all combined into
 *      one file so that it is easier to keep the dispatch routines
 *      in sync when new nodes are added.
 *
 *   EXAMPLE
 *      Suppose we want the age of the manager of the shoe department and
 *      the number of employees in that department.  So we have the query:
 *
 *              select DEPT.no_emps, EMP.age
 *              from DEPT, EMP
 *              where EMP.name = DEPT.mgr and
 *                    DEPT.name = "shoe"
 *
 *      Suppose the planner gives us the following plan:
 *
 *                      Nest Loop (DEPT.mgr = EMP.name)
 *                      /       \
 *                     /         \
 *                 Seq Scan     Seq Scan
 *                  DEPT          EMP
 *              (name = "shoe")
 *
 *      ExecutorStart() is called first.
 *      It calls InitPlan() which calls ExecInitNode() on
 *      the root of the plan -- the nest loop node.
 *
 *    * ExecInitNode() notices that it is looking at a nest loop and
 *      as the code below demonstrates, it calls ExecInitNestLoop().
 *      Eventually this calls ExecInitNode() on the right and left subplans
 *      and so forth until the entire plan is initialized.  The result
 *      of ExecInitNode() is a plan state tree built with the same structure
 *      as the underlying plan tree.
 *
 *    * Then when ExecutorRun() is called, it calls ExecutePlan() which calls
 *      ExecProcNode() repeatedly on the top node of the plan state tree.
 *      Each time this happens, ExecProcNode() will end up calling
 *      ExecNestLoop(), which calls ExecProcNode() on its subplans.
 *      Each of these subplans is a sequential scan so ExecSeqScan() is
 *      called.  The slots returned by ExecSeqScan() may contain
 *      tuples which contain the attributes ExecNestLoop() uses to
 *      form the tuples it returns.
 *
 *    * Eventually ExecSeqScan() stops returning tuples and the nest
 *      loop join ends.  Lastly, ExecutorEnd() calls ExecEndNode() which
 *      calls ExecEndNestLoop() which in turn calls ExecEndNode() on
 *      its subplans which result in ExecEndSeqScan().
 *
 *      This should show how the executor works by having
 *      ExecInitNode(), ExecProcNode() and ExecEndNode() dispatch
 *      their work to the appropriate node support routines which may
 *      in turn call these routines themselves on their subplans.
