Nope. I still get the results in parentheses. When I change the SETOF
from varchar to my defined type, your query [with as s(a)] I get normal
resutls, withouth parentheses. I clearly have solved a problem, I just
need to create a type containing one member only, with the type of
varchar, and instead of 'RETURNS SETOF varchar' i need to do 'RETURNS
SETOF my_varchar_type'. I'm just wondering is this like that 'by
design', or is it a bug.
I've been reproducing this on postgres versions 7.4.8, 7.4.9, 8.0.3,
8.0.4 and 8.1beta3.
