[GENERAL] INSERT with a composite columnt from query

[Reg Me Please]

Hi all.

I have two table like these:

create table compo (
  t text,
  i int
);

create table tab (
  x int,
  c compo
);

Then I have a function like this:

create or replace function f_compo()
returns setof compo as $body$
...
$body$ language sql stable;


What I'd need to do is to insert the results from f_compo() into
the table TAB along with a value x.

I expected somthing like this to work:

insert into tab
  select 42,row( c.* ) from f_compo() c;

But I get
ERROR:  cannot cast type record to compo

Any hint?

TALIA
