NAME¶
DROP_CONVERSION - remove a conversion
SYNOPSIS¶
DROP CONVERSION [ IF EXISTS ] name [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]
DESCRIPTION¶
DROP CONVERSION removes a previously defined conversion. To be able to drop a conversion, you must own the conversion.
PARAMETERS¶
IF EXISTS
Do not throw an error if the conversion does not exist. A
notice is issued in this case.
name
The name of the conversion. The conversion name can be
schema-qualified.
CASCADE
RESTRICT
These key words do not have any effect, since there are
no dependencies on conversions.
EXAMPLES¶
To drop the conversion named myname:
DROP CONVERSION myname;
COMPATIBILITY¶
There is no DROP CONVERSION statement in the SQL standard, but a DROP TRANSLATION statement that goes along with the CREATE TRANSLATION statement that is similar to the CREATE CONVERSION statement in PostgreSQL.
