DROP CONVERSION(7)                 PostgreSQL 14.23 Documentation                 DROP CONVERSION(7)



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.

SEE ALSO
       ALTER CONVERSION (ALTER_CONVERSION(7)), CREATE CONVERSION (CREATE_CONVERSION(7))
