   It returns the list of entries created. Returned columns are
   
    schema_name
   
   ,
   
    table_name
   
   ,
   
    feature_column
   
   .

Examples
SELECT CreateTopology('strk_topo');
CREATE SCHEMA strk;
CREATE TABLE strk.parcels(gid serial, parcel_id varchar(20) PRIMARY KEY, address text);
SELECT topology.AddTopoGeometryColumn('strk_topo', 'strk', 'parcels', 'topo', 'POLYGON');
-- this will return no records because this feature is already registered
SELECT *
  FROM topology.Populate_Topology_Layer();
-- let's rebuild
TRUNCATE TABLE topology.layer;
SELECT *
  FROM topology.Populate_Topology_Layer();
SELECT topology_id,layer_id, schema_name As sn, table_name As tn, feature_column As fc
FROM topology.layer;
