In the example above I'm not sure if I can use some sub struct of the

I don't know off-hand. I suggest you look at what psql does to implement
\copy (note the \).

I took a look at the \copy but as far as I can tell this is using the
frontend (client side) of postgresql and I need to be able to do this on the

backend (server side). I don't see a way with this either to attach to the
connection that called the c function and execute the copy statement. The
DoCopy in commands/copy.h appears to me to be the server side copy command.
And I think I can get it to work if I can figure out how to attach to the
connection of the calling function and pass in the CopyStmt variable.
That sounds... bad.
I think the way to handle this is to add a new type to CopyDest and
modify CopyGetData() and CopySendEndOfRow() accordingly.
It might be tempting to use CopyState->filename as the pointer to a
StringInfoData (StringInfo), but I'm not sure that's a great idea. I
think it'd be better to add a new field to CopyStateData.
