Many thanks for the clarification David. I wish there is a way without
touching my input array but at least based on your feedback I can avoid the
call to string_to_array call in the query. I tried it and it worked but I still
have to permute the C array. Here is what I have working so far:
c
The convention here is to inline or bottom-post, not top-post.

I am sorry I used different query in my my last reply and yes you are correct
Tom. Using the $1 worked and the back-end indeed prepared the statement
successfully but this will force me to do some work on the input array that
contains the dynamic elements to comply with string_to_array delimite

Hi David,
I tried both and I am getting syntax error.
char *query="select codec_id,fs_name,pt from codec_defs where pt =
ANY(string_to_array(?, ','))";
OR
char *query="select codec_id,fs_name,pt from codec_defs where pt =
ANY(?::text)";
PGresult *res=PQprepare(conn,"codecs",query,1,NULL);
