NAME

       DROP_CONVERSION - remove a conversion

SYNOPSIS

       DROP CONVERSION [ IF EXISTS ] name [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]

DESCRIPTION

       DROP CONVERSION removes a previously defined conversion. To be able to drop a conversion,
       you must own the conversion.

PARAMETERS

       IF EXISTS
           Do not throw an error if the conversion does not exist. A notice is issued in this
           case.

       name
           The name of the conversion. The conversion name can be schema-qualified.

       CASCADE
       RESTRICT
           These key words do not have any effect, since there are no dependencies on
           conversions.

EXAMPLES

       To drop the conversion named myname:

           DROP CONVERSION myname;

COMPATIBILITY

       There is no DROP CONVERSION statement in the SQL standard, but a DROP TRANSLATION
       statement that goes along with the CREATE TRANSLATION statement that is similar to the
       CREATE CONVERSION statement in PostgreSQL.
