Hi sandhya,
I really wonder if the function name is pg_field_type (res, col_no).
The function name which returns the field type of a particular column is PQftype (res, col_no).
This returns the field type as oid.The oid of the built-in data types can be found in src/include/catalog/pg_type.h
When using libpq API’s you need to include only “libpq-fe.h”.
Is pg_field_type (res, col_no) an abstraction over PQftype (res, col_no) in your case?
Regards,
Siva Kumar.K
