Re: Version 1 Calling convention

PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 (test);

Datum
test (PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
{
int id = PG_GETARG_INT(0);
char *raw_rawemail1 = PG_GETARG_CHAR_P(1); //line 6 (warning
thrown for this line)
char *rawemail1 = (char *) palloc (VARSIZE(rawemail1));
VARATT_SIZEP ( rawemail1 ) = VARSIZE (raw_rawemail1); //LINE 140
(thats where i get syntax error)
memcpy( (void *) (VARDATA) (rawemail1), (void *) (VARDATA)
(raw_rawemail1) , (VARSIZE) (raw_rawemail1) - VARHDRSZ );

}

Was trying to test the code given in the postgres manual.
The only diff being that i changed the data type from text* to char* and it
gives me a warning like:

"initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast" at line 6 as
commented above.

Can any1 point why?
