Re: Brio returning data through stored procedures.

Never worked with Brio, but have you defined a data-type in pgsql that 
your function would be returning? Something like:

CREATE TYPE "myType" AS
("name" text,
"start" timestamp without time zone,
"end" timestamp without time zone,
error text);
ALTER TYPE "myType" OWNER TO "me";

then the function definition would start off like:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION "getData"()
RETURNS SETOF "myType" AS
.....
