I give the following command now to compile sample.c
gcc -o sample sample.c -I/usr/local/pgsql/include -L/usr/local/pgsql/lib -rpath/usr/local/pgsql/lib - lpq
it gives this message:
gcc: unrecognized option `-rpath/usr/local/pgsql/lib'
(the same happens if i give -R instaed of -rpath

You probably need to specify a runtime library search path option
like -R or -rpath (see your compiler or linker documentation). For
example, the following might work:
cc -L/usr/local/pgsql/lib -R/usr/local/pgsql/lib ...
See also the manual page for the ldd command if your system has it.
