ALTER OPERATOR CLASS(7)	 PostgreSQL 17.5 Documentation ALTER OPERATOR CLASS(7)

NAME
       ALTER_OPERATOR_CLASS - change the definition of an operator class

SYNOPSIS
       ALTER OPERATOR CLASS name USING index_method
	   RENAME TO new_name

       ALTER OPERATOR CLASS name USING index_method
	   OWNER TO { new_owner	| CURRENT_ROLE | CURRENT_USER |	SESSION_USER }

       ALTER OPERATOR CLASS name USING index_method
	   SET SCHEMA new_schema

DESCRIPTION
       ALTER OPERATOR CLASS changes the	definition of an operator class.

       You must	own the	operator class to use ALTER OPERATOR CLASS. To alter
       the owner, you must be able to SET ROLE to the new owning role, and
       that role must have CREATE privilege on the operator class's schema.
       (These restrictions enforce that	altering the owner doesn't do anything
       you couldn't do by dropping and recreating the operator class. However,
       a superuser can alter ownership of any operator class anyway.)

PARAMETERS
       name
	   The name (optionally	schema-qualified) of an	existing operator
	   class.

       index_method
	   The name of the index method	this operator class is for.

       new_name
	   The new name	of the operator	class.

       new_owner
	   The new owner of the	operator class.

       new_schema
	   The new schema for the operator class.

COMPATIBILITY
       There is	no ALTER OPERATOR CLASS	statement in the SQL standard.
