Is it possible to call a language 'C'  function from a PL/pgSQL function. I have the following code:
 
// file myfunc.c
#include "postgres.h"
 
text* myfunc();
 
text* myfunc()
{
 text* ch;
 *ch = '1,2';
 return ch;
}
 
// C file ends here
 
create function myfunc as
'myfunc.so' langauge 'c';
 
create function test() returns text as '
declare
    at text;
begin
    at := myfunc();
    return at;
end;
' language 'plpgsql';
 
The above when executed gives pqReadData()-- backend closed the channel unexpectedly.
