Обсуждение: Can the following be done?

Create or replace function foo(param1, param2, param3) RETURNS SETOF
RECORD(name TEXT, age INTEGER, address TEXT) AS ' ... ' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

If this is not possible, is there any way to have always the same names and
types for the returning columns when using SETOF RECORD?

Thanks

You can make a composite type and return a set of that (you might want to
