Folks,
While using DBI-Link, I've noticed a little lacuna in how functions
returning (SETOF) RECORD work, namely, that you have to cast them to
explicit lists of columns, even when that list of columns corresponds
to an existing complex type.
What would be involved in fixing the casting operation so that the
following would work?
CREATE TYPE foo AS ( a INT4, b INT8, c POINT, d TEXT
);
CREATE FUNCTION bar(output_type TEXT)
RETURNS SETOF RECORD
...
SELECT * FROM bar('foo') AS foo;
Cheers,
D
