In the ALTER cases that have been implemented so far, it seemed easiest to wipe the full set of dependencies and then regenerate them from the altered object. I think you will find the same is true of altering column type. To take just one example, the column default expression (if any) almost certainly has to be replaced too, and it may contain dependencies. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
