I know it is possible to define a new data type which is a composite
of PG native types, but there seems to be little or no documentation
(that I can find) about how to do this. For example, I have a lot of
data in the form of an address, which contains address-line-1,
address-line-2, city, province, country, and postal code. I want to
put all of these data into a single type, so I can pass it back and
forth to pl/pgsql functions as just one argument. I'm having to send
so many arguments that I am running into the 16 argument limit, and
anyway, it would be much easier to handle if I could just define an
address type.
Any information would be appreciated, including references to
websites.
Thanks
