DROP CASTNameDROP CAST -- remove a user-defined cast SynopsisDROP CAST (sourcetype AS targettype)
[ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]Description DROP CAST removes a previously defined cast.
To be able to drop a cast, you must own the source or the target
data type. These are the same privileges that are required to
create a cast.
Parameters - sourcetype
The name of the source data type of the cast.
- targettype
The name of the target data type of the cast.
- CASCADE
RESTRICT These key words do not have any effect, since there are no
dependencies on casts.
Notes Use CREATE CAST to create user-defined casts.
Examples To drop the cast from type text to type int:
DROP CAST (text AS int4);
Compatibility The DROP CAST command conforms to SQL99.
