 "NAME"
ALTER_CONVERSION - change the definition of a conversion

 "SYNOPSIS"
ALTER CONVERSION name RENAME TO new_name
ALTER CONVERSION name OWNER TO { new_owner | CURRENT_USER | SESSION_USER }
ALTER CONVERSION name SET SCHEMA new_schema



 "DESCRIPTION"

ALTER CONVERSION
changes the definition of a conversion.


You must own the conversion to use
ALTER CONVERSION. 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 conversion\*(Aqs schema. (These restrictions enforce that altering the owner doesn\*(Aqt do anything you couldn\*(Aqt do by dropping and recreating the conversion. However, a superuser can alter ownership of any conversion anyway.)

 "PARAMETERS"

name


The name (optionally schema-qualified) of an existing conversion.




new_name


The new name of the conversion.




new_owner


The new owner of the conversion.




new_schema


The new schema for the conversion.



 "EXAMPLES"

To rename the conversion
iso_8859_1_to_utf8
to
latin1_to_unicode:


.\}

ALTER CONVERSION iso_8859_1_to_utf8 RENAME TO latin1_to_unicode;




.\}


To change the owner of the conversion
iso_8859_1_to_utf8
to
joe:


.\}

ALTER CONVERSION iso_8859_1_to_utf8 OWNER TO joe;




.\}

 "COMPATIBILITY"

There is no
ALTER CONVERSION
statement in the SQL standard.
