The below mentioned pg_database does not appear in $1.
In the postgresql.log I get "select datname from $1".
Do you have a suggestion of how to solve this?

I get double declarations when using both
char *paramValues[1]
char *paramValues[1]

//char *value1 = "pg_database";
//char **paramValues = &value1; /* closer match to the documentation's
syntax */
char *paramValues[1] = {"pg_database"}; /* same as above, different syntax
*/
//
//char *paramValues[1]; /* this looks to be missing */
//paramValues[0]={"pg_database"}; /* what you had */
           res = PQexecParams(conn,
           "select datname from $1",
           1, /* there is only 1 entry in paramValues array */
           NULL,
           paramValues, /* address of parameter value array */
           NULL, /* don't need param lengths since text */
           NULL, /* defaul to all text params */
           1); /* return all values as binary */

Thanks.
