You might get more helpful advice if you describe more specifically
what you're trying to do.  I mean, here's one way to create a
TupleDesc (from contrib/adminpack) but it may or may not be suitable
for your purposes:
               tupdesc = CreateTemplateTupleDesc(2, false);               TupleDescInitEntry(tupdesc, (AttrNumber) 1,
"starttime",                                                 TIMESTAMPOID, -1, 0);
TupleDescInitEntry(tupdesc,(AttrNumber) 2, "filename",                                                  TEXTOID, -1,
0);

As ProjectInfo, maybe ExecBuildProjectionInfo?
