DROP 
TYPE(7)						  PostgreSQL 9.2.7 Documentation					      DROP TYPE(7)

NAME

       DROP_TYPE - remove a data type

SYNOPSIS

       DROP TYPE [ IF EXISTS ] name [, ...] [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]

DESCRIPTION

       DROP TYPE removes a user-defined data type. Only the owner of a type can remove it.

PARAMETERS

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

       name
	   The name (optionally schema-qualified) of the data type to remove.

       CASCADE
	   Automatically drop objects that depend on the type (such as table columns, functions, operators).

       RESTRICT
	   Refuse to drop the type if any objects depend on it. This is the default.

EXAMPLES

       To remove the data type box:

	   DROP TYPE box;

COMPATIBILITY

       This command is similar to the corresponding command in the SQL standard, apart from the IF EXISTS option, which is a PostgreSQL extension.
       But note that much of the CREATE TYPE command and the data type extension mechanisms in PostgreSQL differ from the SQL standard.

SCHEMA(7)						  PostgreSQL 9.2.7 Documentation					    DROP SCHEMA(7)

NAME

       DROP_SCHEMA - remove a schema

SYNOPSIS

       DROP SCHEMA [ IF EXISTS ] name [, ...] [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]

DESCRIPTION

       DROP SCHEMA removes schemas from the database.

       A schema can only be dropped by its owner or a superuser. Note that the owner can drop the schema (and thereby all contained objects) even
       if he does not own some of the objects within the schema.

PARAMETERS

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

       name
	   The name of a schema.

       CASCADE
	   Automatically drop objects (tables, functions, etc.) that are contained in the schema.

       RESTRICT
	   Refuse to drop the schema if it contains any objects. This is the default.

EXAMPLES

       To remove schema mystuff from the database, along with everything it contains:

	   DROP SCHEMA mystuff CASCADE;

COMPATIBILITY

       DROP SCHEMA is fully conforming with the SQL standard, except that the standard only allows one schema to be dropped per command, and apart
       from the IF EXISTS option, which is a PostgreSQL extension.
