DESCRIPTION
ALTER ROUTINE changes the definition of a routine, which can be an
aggregate function, a normal function, or a procedure. See under ALTER
AGGREGATE (ALTER_AGGREGATE(7)), ALTER FUNCTION (ALTER_FUNCTION(7)), and
ALTER PROCEDURE (ALTER_PROCEDURE(7)) for the description of the
parameters, more examples, and further details.
EXAMPLES
To rename the routine foo for type integer to foobar:
ALTER ROUTINE foo(integer) RENAME TO foobar;
This command will work independent of whether foo is an aggregate,
function, or procedure.
COMPATIBILITY
This statement is partially compatible with the ALTER ROUTINE statement
in the SQL standard. See under ALTER FUNCTION (ALTER_FUNCTION(7)) and
ALTER PROCEDURE (ALTER_PROCEDURE(7)) for more details. Allowing routine
names to refer to aggregate functions is a PostgreSQL extension.
SEE ALSO
ALTER AGGREGATE (ALTER_AGGREGATE(7)), ALTER FUNCTION
(ALTER_FUNCTION(7)), ALTER PROCEDURE (ALTER_PROCEDURE(7)), DROP ROUTINE
(DROP_ROUTINE(7))
Note that there is no CREATE ROUTINE command.
