  <title>Description</title>

  <para>
   <command>ALTER OPERATOR CLASS</command> changes the definition of
   an operator class.
  </para>

  <para>
   You must own the operator class to use <command>ALTER OPERATOR CLASS</>.
   To alter the owner, you must also be a direct or indirect member of the new
   owning role, and that role must have <literal>CREATE</literal> privilege on
   the operator class's schema.  (These restrictions enforce that altering the
   owner doesn't do anything you couldn't do by dropping and recreating the
   operator class.  However, a superuser can alter ownership of any operator
   class anyway.)
