The term +\(lqroutine\(rq +includes aggregate functions, normal functions, and procedures\&.

(\fBDROP AGGREGATE\fR +and +\fBDROP FUNCTION\fR +do not do that\&.) +.PP +In some cases where the same name is shared by routines of different kinds, it is possible for +\fBDROP ROUTINE\fR +to fail with an ambiguity error when a more specific command (\fBDROP FUNCTION\fR, etc\&.) would work\&. Specifying the argument type list more carefully will also resolve such problems\&. +.PP +These lookup rules are also used by other commands that act on existing routines, such as +\fBALTER ROUTINE\fR +and +\fBCOMMENT ON ROUTINE\fR\&. +.SH "EXAMPLES" +.PP +To drop the routine +foo +for type +integer: +.sp +.if n \{\ +.RS 4 +.\} +.nf +DROP ROUTINE foo(integer); +.fi +.if n \{\ +.RE +.\} +.sp +This command will work independent of whether +foo +is an aggregate, function, or procedure\&. +.SH "COMPATIBILITY" +.PP +This command conforms to the SQL standard, with these +PostgreSQL +extensions: +.sp +.RS 4 +.ie n \{\ +\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c +.\} +.el \{\ +.sp -1 +.IP \(bu 2.3 +.\} +The standard only allows one routine to be dropped per command\&. +.RE +.sp +.RS 4 +.ie n \{\ +\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c +.\} +.el \{\ +.sp -1 +.IP \(bu 2.3 +.\} +The +IF EXISTS +option is an extension\&. +.RE +.sp +.RS 4 +.ie n \{\ +\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c +.\} +.el \{\ +.sp -1 +.IP \(bu 2.3 +.\} +The ability to specify argument modes and names is an extension, and the lookup rules differ when modes are given\&. +.RE +.sp +.RS 4 +.ie n \{\ +\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c +.\} +.el \{\ +.sp -1 +.IP \(bu 2.3 +.\} +User\-definable aggregate functions are an extension\&. +.RE +.SH "SEE ALSO" +DROP AGGREGATE (\fBDROP_AGGREGATE\fR(7)), DROP FUNCTION (\fBDROP_FUNCTION\fR(7)), DROP PROCEDURE (\fBDROP_PROCEDURE\fR(7)), ALTER ROUTINE (\fBALTER_ROUTINE\fR(7)) +.PP +Note that there is no +CREATE ROUTINE +command\&. -- cgit v1.2.3
