Use another set of parentheses around the function call, as at the
end of this example:
CREATE TYPE test_type AS (col1 integer, col2 integer);
CREATE FUNCTION test_func() RETURNS test_type AS $$
DECLARE
retval test_type;
BEGIN
retval.col1 := 123;
retval.col2 := 456;
RETURN retval;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
SELECT * FROM test_func();
col1 | col2
------+------
123 | 456
(1 row)
SELECT (test_func()).col1;
col1
------
123
(1 row)
