ALTER OPERATOR() SQL Commands ALTER OPERATOR()
NAME
ALTER OPERATOR - change the definition of an operator
SYNOPSIS
ALTER OPERATOR name ( { lefttype | NONE } , { righttype | NONE } ) OWNER TO newowner
DESCRIPTION
ALTER OPERATOR changes the definition of an operator. The only cur-
rently available functionality is to change the owner of the operator.
You must own the operator to use ALTER OPERATOR. 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's schema.
(These restrictions enforce that altering the owner doesn't do anything
you couldn't do by dropping and recreating the operator. However, a
superuser can alter ownership of any operator anyway.)
PARAMETERS
name The name (optionally schema-qualified) of an existing operator.
lefttype
The data type of the operator's left operand; write NONE if the
operator has no left operand.
righttype
The data type of the operator's right operand; write NONE if the
operator has no right operand.
newowner
The new owner of the operator.
EXAMPLES
Change the owner of a custom operator a @@ b for type text:
ALTER OPERATOR @@ (text, text) OWNER TO joe;
COMPATIBILITY
There is no ALTER OPERATOR statement in the SQL standard.
