I think the original question still stands. What are you trying do?
Can't you map your "structure" to a regular table? A list of struct's
containing one integer and one string sounds like a table containing
one integer and one string (with the possible addition of an extra
key field if the integer is not already an identifier).
CREATE TABLE list_struct (
i integer NOT NULL,
c varchar(255) NOT NULL
CHECK (char_length(c) > 0),
PRIMARY KEY (i, c)
);
