DROP CONVERSION
Name
DROP CONVERSION -- remove a conversion
Synopsis

Description

To be able to drop a conversion, you must own the conversion.

- 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

dependencies on conversions.

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.
