There are also some useful examples in contrib/. Several contrib
modules have macros like
#define _textin(str) DirectFunctionCall1(textin, CStringGetDatum(str))
#define _textout(str) DatumGetPointer(DirectFunctionCall1(textout,
PointerGetDatum(str)))
which work pretty much the same as the old textin() and textout()
functions did.
