Thread: rowtype and ecpg

I have a function that takes as a parameter ROWTYPE:

create or replace function test_func(test_table) 
returns varchar as '
declare  lv_return   varchar;
begin  ......  return lv_return;
end;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

How do I call this function from the C program (ecpg)? How my
declaration should look like?

I trued structure and got error: Too many arguments

Thanks for your help

What exactly is your problem? 
Calling a plpgsql function from within a C program 
or retrieving varchar data within a C program?

My problem is a "rowtype" variable. 

I don't know how to declare a structure or anything else to pass
information to the function, which input parameter has a type of
"rowtype" (I have no problem retrieving any output - varchar or
refcursor)

Thanks
