Assuming you're trying to write a server extension (and NOT a client application), this is where you can start: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/server-programming.html Specifically, an interface called "server programming interface" (chapter 44 on the above page) can be used to issue SQLs from a server extension module.
