function hook_views_pre_execute

This hook is called right before the execute process.

The query is now fully built, but it has not yet been run through db_rewrite_sql.

Adding output to the view can be accomplished by placing text on $view->attachment_before and $view->attachment_after.

Parameters

object $view: The view object about to be processed.
