> Why do you create an extra type for that?
> Just have your method return "movies"
Hi,
Thanks for the answer. The simple example obfuscates the fact that in reality
the table has a few extra columns that are omitted from get_movies_t.
Therefore, I cannot return "movies".
However, your answer did give me an idea: instead of declaring "get_movies_t"
as a record, I declare it as dummy table, and return that (see code at the
end).
This works, though it is *very* ugly. Any other ideas?
Thanks,
C.S.
CREATE TABLE get_movies_t
(
movie_id int4 NOT NULL,
movie_name text NOT NULL
);
CREATE FUNCTION get_movies ()
RETURNS SETOF get_movies_t
LANGUAGE sql STABLE
AS
$$
SELECT movie_id, movie_name FROM movies;
$$;
