Hi

I defined a composite type and forgot its structure, data fields names
and data types. Is there any command that can define that for me? or a
table where I can find this information stored to retrieve it back,

sorry if its a basic question, but it is my first time with composite
types and didn't keep enough documentation while just starting,

thank you very much,

Kind Regards,

Manal

psql's \d command, for one.

regression=# create type fooey as (f1 int, f2 text);
CREATE TYPE
regression=# \d fooey
Composite type "public.fooey"
 Column |  Type   
--------+---------
 f1     | integer
 f2     | text


			regards, tom lane
