CREATE FUNCTION foo() RETURNS SETOF RECORD AS
'SELECT 1::int,2::int,''A''::text;'
LANGUAGE sql;
SELECT * FROM foo() AS (a int, b int, c text);
a | b | c
---+---+---
1 | 2 | A
(1 row)

function definition:
CREATE TYPE foo_res_type AS (a int, b int, c text);
CREATE FUNCTION foo() RETURNS SETOF foo_res_type ...
