NAME

6       ALTER CONVERSION - change the definition of a conversion

SYNOPSIS

10       ALTER CONVERSION name RENAME TO newname
11       ALTER CONVERSION name OWNER TO newowner

DESCRIPTION

15       ALTER CONVERSION changes the definition of a conversion.
16
17       You  must  own  the  conversion  to use ALTER CONVERSION.  To alter the
18       owner, you must also be a direct or indirect member of the  new  owning
19       role,  and  that  role  must  have CREATE privilege on the conversion's
20       schema. (These restrictions enforce that altering the owner doesn't  do
21       anything  you  couldn't  do  by dropping and recreating the conversion.
22       However, a superuser can alter ownership of any conversion anyway.)
23

29              The new name of the conversion.
30
31       newowner
32              The new owner of the conversion.
