ALTER CONVERSION
Changes 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's schema. (These restrictions enforce that altering the owner does not do anything you could not 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.
