6 ALTER_OPERATOR - change the definition of an operator

9 ALTER OPERATOR name ( { left_type | NONE } , { right_type | NONE } ) OWNER TO new_owner
10 ALTER OPERATOR name ( { left_type | NONE } , { right_type | NONE } ) SET SCHEMA new_schema

13 ALTER OPERATOR changes the definition of an operator. The only
14 currently available functionality is to change the owner of the
15 operator.
16
17 You must own the operator to use ALTER OPERATOR. To alter the owner,
18 you must also be a direct or indirect member of the new owning role,
19 and that role must have CREATE privilege on the operator's schema.
20 (These restrictions enforce that altering the owner doesn't do anything
21 you couldn't do by dropping and recreating the operator. However, a
22 superuser can alter ownership of any operator anyway.)
23
25 name
26 The name (optionally schema-qualified) of an existing operator.
27
28 left_type
29 The data type of the operator's left operand; write NONE if the
30 operator has no left operand.
31
32 right_type
33 The data type of the operator's right operand; write NONE if the
34 operator has no right operand.
35
36 new_owner
37 The new owner of the operator.
38
39 new_schema
40 The new schema for the operator.
41
43 Change the owner of a custom operator a @@ b for type text:
44
45 ALTER OPERATOR @@ (text, text) OWNER TO joe;
46
48 There is no ALTER OPERATOR statement in the SQL standard.
