ALTER OPERATOR CLASS(7) PostgreSQL 9.5.0 Documentation
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_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 also be a direct or indirect member of 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
The name (optionally schema-qualified) of an existing operator
class.
index_method
The name of the index method this operator class is for.
new_name
The new name of the operator class.
new_owner
The new owner of the operator class.
new_schema
The new schema for the operator class.
COMPATIBILITY
There is no ALTER OPERATOR CLASS statement in the SQL standard.
