For example, for your table t1, you should have a >t1 type and a _t1 type. Both have OIDs. On my cluster, your example gives me: ># select oid,relname from pg_class where relname in ('t1','t2'); >┌───────┬─────────┐ >│ oid │ relname │ >├───────┼─────────┤ >│ 24635 │ t1 │ >│ 24638 │ t2 │ >└───────┴─────────┘ >(2 rows) >Time: 0.507 ms ># select oid, typname from pg_type where typname like '%t1' or typname like '%t2' and oid>24000 order by oid; >┌───────┬─────────┐ >│ oid │ typname │ >├───────┼─────────┤ >│ 24636 │ _t1 │ >│ 24637 │ t1 │ >│ 24639 │ _t2 │ >│ 24640 │ t2 │ >└───────┴─────────┘ >(4 rows) >Time: 1.203 ms >The jump between t1 OID (24635) and t2 OID (24638) is the _t1 data type OID (24636) and the t1 data type OID (24637).
