Are you writing server-side or client-side code? For server-side
see "C-Language Functions" in the documentation:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/xfunc-c.html

For examples you could look through the PostgreSQL source code, in
particular the files under contrib and in src/backend/utils/adt.

If you're writing client-side code then see "libpq - C Library":

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/libpq.html

If that doesn't help then please provide more information about
what you'd like to do or what concerns you have.
