If I was to write a c program and wished to set and access an
internal variable as a flag for my program so that I can read it
in or set it? I have been researching for days now and I have
come across nothing that helps only knowledge that it is
possible.
It isn't clear to me exactly what you are trying to do. Can you give a more concrete contrived example?
Also, take a look at the directories under contrib/ -- they are full of good examples of how to write C language user defined functions.
And finally, look at the manual: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/view.php?version=7.3&idoc=0&file=xfunc-c.html
HTH,
