Signatures & examples

to_regoperator ( text ) → regoperator

Translates a textual operator name (with parameter types) to its OID. A similar result is obtained by casting the string to type regoperator (see Section 8.19); however, this function will return NULL rather than throwing an error if the name is not found.
