I think you might want to take a look at how PL/Java is implemented then:

https://github.com/tada/pljava

Call handler function I mentioned seems to be implemented in this file:

https://github.com/tada/pljava/blob/master/pljava-so/src/main/c/Backend.c

Just like writing and deploying C functions, functions written in PL/Java
seem to require manual compilation and elaborate installation steps.

Thanks,
Amit
