Bug reference:      1604
Logged by:          Chris Trawick

PostgreSQL version: 8.0.1
Operating system:   i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc

Description:        Composite types, triggers, and INET_CLIENT_ADDR()
function
Details: 

I'm encountering an error when using a plpgsql insert trigger to
automatically log the client connection information using
INET_CLIENT_ADDR().  No changes from default install configuration.  Fresh
PG_DATA install.

Here's my test case:


CREATE TYPE SocketAddress AS(
        addr    INET,
        port    INT
);

CREATE TABLE BugTable(
        intValue        int     NOT NULL,
        clientAddr      SocketAddress   NOT NULL
);

CREATE FUNCTION
        BugTable_setClientAddr()
        RETURNS TRIGGER AS $$
BEGIN
        NEW.clientAddr := (INET_CLIENT_ADDR(),INET_CLIENT_PORT());
        RETURN NEW;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

CREATE TRIGGER BugTable_onInsert_setClientAddr
        BEFORE INSERT
        ON BugTable
        FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE BugTable_setClientAddr();


$ psql -h localhost
