- The view <code class="literal">enabled_roles</code> identifies the currently
- <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">enabled roles</span>”</span>. The enabled roles are recursively
- defined as the current user together with all roles that have been
- granted to the enabled roles with automatic inheritance. In other
- words, these are all roles that the current user has direct or
- indirect, automatically inheriting membership in.

- For permission checking, the set of <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">applicable roles</span>”</span>
- is applied, which can be broader than the set of enabled roles. So
- generally, it is better to use the view
- <code class="literal">applicable_roles</code> instead of this one; See
- <a class="xref" href="infoschema-applicable-roles.html" title="36.5. applicable_roles">Section 36.5</a> for details on
- <code class="literal">applicable_roles</code> view.
