Try this:
Datum
ssh_exec(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
{
char *uname = PG_GETARG_CHAR(0);
char *uid = PG_GETARG_CHAR(1);
char *gid = PG_GETARG_CHAR(2);
strcpy(sshcmd, "/usr/local/bin/plsshexec ");
strncat(sshcmd, VARDATA(uname), VARSIZE(uname));
strcat(sshcmd, " ");
strncat(sshcmd, VARDATA(uid), VARSIZE(uid));
strcat(sshcmd, " ");
strncat(sshcmd, VARDATA(gid), VARSIZE(gid));
system(sshcmd);
return 0;
}
This may work, but is more to give you idea what PostgreSQL
vars are about. I would not use such code in my projects anyway :)
I suggest you study the code in src/backend/utils/adt/varchar.c
to see examples of char/text manipulation.
