hi,
It was a stupid error on my part.
I was declaring the function to return varchar when i was actually
returning integer. Also, i looked at varchar.c which was a great help.
It had a function that shows how to convert varchar to cstring.
Thanks tom,

i am sorry for misleading subject line ...
thanks for your tip.
Perhaps fmgr has more in it that i need to understand and study so as to convert text/varchar to char* .
thanks,

hi all,
I have read through the fmgr's readme but havent been able to solve my problem with accessing the file.
I gave the permissions: [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# chmod 777-r
/ResourceFS" and have made sure the file i am trying to access
does exist.
I am not sure where i am going wrong.
