Hello to everyone,
I am trying to pass custom types as parameters in stored functions, and I
tried this syntax successfully:

create type myType as (id bigint, name character varying);

create or replace myfunc(obj myType)
returns void as
begin
.......
end;

select myfunc((1, 'foo')::myType;

In this manner, if I understand it, there is a positional assignment of
attribute value: id = 1 and name = foo.
My ask is is there a manner to assing value to attribute of custom type by
name instead by position.

Thanks in advance.

Mephysto.
