ALTER OPERATOR CLASS(7) | PostgreSQL 16.4 Documentation | ALTER OPERATOR CLASS(7) |
NAME¶
ALTER_OPERATOR_CLASS - change the definition of an operator class
SYNOPSIS¶
ALTER OPERATOR CLASS name USING index_method
RENAME TO new_name ALTER OPERATOR CLASS name USING index_method
OWNER TO { new_owner | CURRENT_ROLE | CURRENT_USER | SESSION_USER } ALTER OPERATOR CLASS name USING index_method
SET SCHEMA new_schema
DESCRIPTION¶
ALTER OPERATOR CLASS changes the definition of an operator class.
You must own the operator class to use ALTER OPERATOR CLASS. To alter the owner, you must be able to SET ROLE to the new owning role, and that role must have CREATE privilege on the operator class's schema. (These restrictions enforce that altering the owner doesn't do anything you couldn't do by dropping and recreating the operator class. However, a superuser can alter ownership of any operator class anyway.)
PARAMETERS¶
name
index_method
new_name
new_owner
new_schema
COMPATIBILITY¶
There is no ALTER OPERATOR CLASS statement in the SQL standard.
