DESCRIPTION

34       ALTER ROUTINE changes the definition of a routine, which can be an
35       aggregate function, a normal function, or a procedure. See under ALTER
36       AGGREGATE (ALTER_AGGREGATE(7)), ALTER FUNCTION (ALTER_FUNCTION(7)), and
37       ALTER PROCEDURE (ALTER_PROCEDURE(7)) for the description of the
38       parameters, more examples, and further details.
39

EXAMPLES

41       To rename the routine foo for type integer to foobar:
42
43           ALTER ROUTINE foo(integer) RENAME TO foobar;
44
45       This command will work independent of whether foo is an aggregate,
46       function, or procedure.
47

COMPATIBILITY

49       This statement is partially compatible with the ALTER ROUTINE statement
50       in the SQL standard. See under ALTER FUNCTION (ALTER_FUNCTION(7)) and
51       ALTER PROCEDURE (ALTER_PROCEDURE(7)) for more details. Allowing routine
52       names to refer to aggregate functions is a PostgreSQL extension.
53
