.SH "NAME"
ALTER_AGGREGATE \- change the definition of an aggregate function
.\" ALTER AGGREGATE
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
.nf
ALTER AGGREGATE \fIname\fR ( \fIargtype\fR [ , \&.\&.\&. ] ) RENAME TO \fInew_name\fR
ALTER AGGREGATE \fIname\fR ( \fIargtype\fR [ , \&.\&.\&. ] ) OWNER TO \fInew_owner\fR
ALTER AGGREGATE \fIname\fR ( \fIargtype\fR [ , \&.\&.\&. ] ) SET SCHEMA \fInew_schema\fR
.fi
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBALTER AGGREGATE\fR
changes the definition of an aggregate function\&.
.PP
You must own the aggregate function to use
\fBALTER AGGREGATE\fR\&. To change the schema of an aggregate function, you must also have
CREATE
privilege on the new schema\&. To alter the owner, you must also be a direct or indirect member of the new owning role, and that role must have
CREATE
privilege on the aggregate function\*(Aqs schema\&. (These restrictions enforce that altering the owner doesn\*(Aqt do anything you couldn\*(Aqt do by dropping and recreating the aggregate function\&. However, a superuser can alter ownership of any aggregate function anyway\&.)
.SH "PARAMETERS"
.PP
\fIname\fR
.RS 4
The name (optionally schema\-qualified) of an existing aggregate function\&.
.RE
.PP
\fIargtype\fR
.RS 4
An input data type on which the aggregate function operates\&. To reference a zero\-argument aggregate function, write
*
in place of the list of input data types\&.
.RE
.PP
\fInew_name\fR
.RS 4
The new name of the aggregate function\&.
.RE
.PP
\fInew_owner\fR
.RS 4
The new owner of the aggregate function\&.
.RE
.PP
\fInew_schema\fR
.RS 4
The new schema for the aggregate function\&.
.RE
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.PP
To rename the aggregate function
myavg
for type
integer
to
my_average:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
ALTER AGGREGATE myavg(integer) RENAME TO my_average;
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.PP
To change the owner of the aggregate function
myavg
for type
integer
to
joe:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
ALTER AGGREGATE myavg(integer) OWNER TO joe;
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.PP
To move the aggregate function
myavg
for type
integer
into schema
myschema:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
ALTER AGGREGATE myavg(integer) SET SCHEMA myschema;
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.SH "COMPATIBILITY"
.PP
There is no
\fBALTER AGGREGATE\fR
statement in the SQL standard\&.
