+    The production of :class:`.CompileState` is specific to the compiler,  such

+    :meth:`.SQLCompiler.visit_select` etc. methods.  These methods are also

+    i.e. the outermost SQL statement that's actually being executed.
+    There can be other :class:`.CompileState` objects that are not the

+
+        Execution options can be set at many scopes, including per-statement,
+        per-connection, or per execution, using methods such as
+        :meth:`_engine.Connection.execution_options` and parameters which
+        accept a dictionary of options such as
+        :paramref:`_engine.Connection.execute.execution_options` and
+        :paramref:`_orm.Session.execute.execution_options`.
+
+        The primary characteristic of an execution option, as opposed to
+        other kinds of options such as ORM loader options, is that
+        **execution options never affect the compiled SQL of a query, only
+        things that affect how the SQL statement itself is invoked or how
+        results are fetched**.  That is, execution options are not part of
+        what's accommodated by SQL compilation nor are they considered part of
+        the cached state of a statement.
+
+        The :meth:`_sql.Executable.execution_options` method is
+        :term:`generative`, as
+        is the case for the method as applied to the :class:`_engine.Engine`
+        and :class:`_orm.Query` objects, which means when the method is called,
+        a copy of the object is returned, which applies the given parameters to
+        that new copy, but leaves the original unchanged::
+
+            statement = select(table.c.x, table.c.y)
+            new_statement = statement.execution_options(my_option=True)
+
+        An exception to this behavior is the :class:`_engine.Connection`
+        object, where the :meth:`_engine.Connection.execution_options` method
+        is explicitly **not** generative.
+
+        The kinds of options that may be passed to
+        :meth:`_sql.Executable.execution_options` and other related methods and
+        parameter dictionaries include parameters that are explicitly consumed
+        by SQLAlchemy Core or ORM, as well as arbitrary keyword arguments not
+        defined by SQLAlchemy, which means the methods and/or parameter
+        dictionaries may be used for user-defined parameters that interact with
+        custom code, which may access the parameters using methods such as
+        :meth:`_sql.Executable.get_execution_options` and
+        :meth:`_engine.Connection.get_execution_options`, or within selected
+        event hooks using a dedicated ``execution_options`` event parameter
+        such as
+        :paramref:`_events.ConnectionEvents.before_execute.execution_options`
+        or :attr:`_orm.ORMExecuteState.execution_options`, e.g.::
+
+             from sqlalchemy import event
+
+
+             @event.listens_for(some_engine, "before_execute")
+             def _process_opt(conn, statement, multiparams, params, execution_options):
+                 "run a SQL function before invoking a statement"
+
+                 if execution_options.get("do_special_thing", False):
+                     conn.exec_driver_sql("run_special_function()")
+
+        Within the scope of options that are explicitly recognized by
+        SQLAlchemy, most apply to specific classes of objects and not others.
+        The most common execution options include:
+
+        * :paramref:`_engine.Connection.execution_options.isolation_level` -
+          sets the isolation level for a connection or a class of connections
+          via an :class:`_engine.Engine`.  This option is accepted only
+          by :class:`_engine.Connection` or :class:`_engine.Engine`.
+
+        * :paramref:`_engine.Connection.execution_options.stream_results` -
+          indicates results should be fetched using a server side cursor;
+          this option is accepted by :class:`_engine.Connection`, by the
+          :paramref:`_engine.Connection.execute.execution_options` parameter
+          on :meth:`_engine.Connection.execute`, and additionally by
+          :meth:`_sql.Executable.execution_options` on a SQL statement object,
+          as well as by ORM constructs like :meth:`_orm.Session.execute`.
+
+        * :paramref:`_engine.Connection.execution_options.compiled_cache` -
+          indicates a dictionary that will serve as the
+          :ref:`SQL compilation cache <sql_caching>`
+          for a :class:`_engine.Connection` or :class:`_engine.Engine`, as
+          well as for ORM methods like :meth:`_orm.Session.execute`.
+          Can be passed as ``None`` to disable caching for statements.
+          This option is not accepted by
+          :meth:`_sql.Executable.execution_options` as it is inadvisable to
+          carry along a compilation cache within a statement object.
+
+        * :paramref:`_engine.Connection.execution_options.schema_translate_map`
+          - a mapping of schema names used by the
+          :ref:`Schema Translate Map <schema_translating>` feature, accepted
+          by :class:`_engine.Connection`, :class:`_engine.Engine`,

+    """Collection of :class:`_expression.ColumnElement` instances,
+    typically for
+    :class:`_sql.FromClause` objects.
+
+    The :class:`_sql.ColumnCollection` object is most commonly available
+    as the :attr:`_schema.Table.c` or :attr:`_schema.Table.columns` collection
+    on the :class:`_schema.Table` object, introduced at
+    :ref:`metadata_tables_and_columns`.
+
+    The :class:`_expression.ColumnCollection` has both mapping- and sequence-
+    like behaviors. A :class:`_expression.ColumnCollection` usually stores
+    :class:`_schema.Column` objects, which are then accessible both via mapping
+    style access as well as attribute access style.
+
+    To access :class:`_schema.Column` objects using ordinary attribute-style
+    access, specify the name like any other object attribute, such as below
+    a column named ``employee_name`` is accessed::
+
+        >>> employee_table.c.employee_name
+
+    To access columns that have names with special characters or spaces,
+    index-style access is used, such as below which illustrates a column named
+    ``employee ' payment`` is accessed::
+
+        >>> employee_table.c["employee ' payment"]
+
+    As the :class:`_sql.ColumnCollection` object provides a Python dictionary
+    interface, common dictionary method names like
+    :meth:`_sql.ColumnCollection.keys`, :meth:`_sql.ColumnCollection.values`,
+    and :meth:`_sql.ColumnCollection.items` are available, which means that
+    database columns that are keyed under these names also need to use indexed
+    access::
+
+        >>> employee_table.c["values"]
+
+
+    The name for which a :class:`_schema.Column` would be present is normally
+    that of the :paramref:`_schema.Column.key` parameter.  In some contexts,
+    such as a :class:`_sql.Select` object that uses a label style set
+    using the :meth:`_sql.Select.set_label_style` method, a column of a certain
+    key may instead be represented under a particular label name such
+    as ``tablename_columnname``::
+
+        >>> from sqlalchemy import select, column, table
+        >>> from sqlalchemy import LABEL_STYLE_TABLENAME_PLUS_COL
+        >>> t = table("t", column("c"))
+        >>> stmt = select(t).set_label_style(LABEL_STYLE_TABLENAME_PLUS_COL)
+        >>> subq = stmt.subquery()
+        >>> subq.c.t_c
+        <sqlalchemy.sql.elements.ColumnClause at 0x7f59dcf04fa0; t_c>
+
+    :class:`.ColumnCollection` also indexes the columns in order and allows
+    them to be accessible by their integer position::
+
+        >>> cc[0]
+        Column('x', Integer(), table=None)
+        >>> cc[1]
+        Column('y', Integer(), table=None)
+
+    .. versionadded:: 1.4 :class:`_expression.ColumnCollection`
+       allows integer-based
+       index access to the collection.
+
+    Iterating the collection yields the column expressions in order::
+
+        >>> list(cc)
+        [Column('x', Integer(), table=None),
+         Column('y', Integer(), table=None)]
+
+    The base :class:`_expression.ColumnCollection` object can store
+    duplicates, which can
+    mean either two columns with the same key, in which case the column
+    returned by key  access is **arbitrary**::
+
+        >>> x1, x2 = Column("x", Integer), Column("x", Integer)
+        >>> cc = ColumnCollection(columns=[(x1.name, x1), (x2.name, x2)])
+        >>> list(cc)
+        [Column('x', Integer(), table=None),
+         Column('x', Integer(), table=None)]
+        >>> cc["x"] is x1
+        False
+        >>> cc["x"] is x2
+        True
+
+    Or it can also mean the same column multiple times.   These cases are
+    supported as :class:`_expression.ColumnCollection`
+    is used to represent the columns in
+    a SELECT statement which may include duplicates.
+
+    A special subclass :class:`.DedupeColumnCollection` exists which instead
+    maintains SQLAlchemy's older behavior of not allowing duplicates; this
+    collection is used for schema level objects like :class:`_schema.Table`
+    and
+    :class:`.PrimaryKeyConstraint` where this deduping is helpful.  The
+    :class:`.DedupeColumnCollection` class also has additional mutation methods
+    as the schema constructs have more use cases that require removal and
+    replacement of columns.
+
+    .. versionchanged:: 1.4 :class:`_expression.ColumnCollection`
+       now stores duplicate
+       column keys as well as the same column in multiple positions.  The
+       :class:`.DedupeColumnCollection` class is added to maintain the
+       former behavior in those cases where deduplication as well as
+       additional replace/remove operations are needed.
