Hi list,

I have a
create type thetype(width integer, height integer);
create table mytable(thetype thetype[]);

How can i make an insert statement so if i later add fields to the
composite type, the code/query doesn't break ?
Maybe by specifying the fields of the composite type in the query ?

This can be done for normal inserts(non arrays):
CREATE TABLE mytable (t thetype);
INSERT INTO mytable(t.width, t.height) VALUES (11,22);


Also how to update an whole element of an array of composites ?
Also, how to update an attribute in a specific element in an array of
composites?

(so when i add columns later to the composite, my old code doesn't break)

How much overhead have the composite types beside the values and nulls?

Thanks
