help defining a stored procedure that returns a record or an arrayusing SELECT INTO - Mailing list pgsql-sql

Hi all,
this may sound trivial, but I'm not able to create a simple function
that returns either an array or a record.
For instance, the following:

CREATE TYPE t_agg AS (
  t_count   int,
  t_sum int
);

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_compute()
RETURNS t_agg
AS
$BODY$
  DECLARE
    tot t_agg%rowtype;
  BEGIN
    SELECT  count(id)
            , sum( f_value )
    INTO STRICT tot
    FROM my_table;

    RETURN tot;

  END
$BODY$
LANGUAGE plpgsql;


provides a tuple of t_agg with a simple count and sum.

1) is it possible to change the return value to int[] (and
consequently tot variable) using the SELECT INTO statement?
2) if I change the return type to record (and consequently the tot
variable), how should I name columns so that the parse knows what
tuple it is returning still using the SELECT INTO?

Thanks,
Luca
