<para>

<application>droplang</application> is a utility for removing an
|
|
|
|
existing programming language from a
|
|
|
|
<productname>PostgreSQL</productname> database.
|
|
|
|
<application>droplang</application> can drop any procedural language,
|
|
|
|
even those not supplied by the <productname>PostgreSQL</> distribution.

</para>

|

<para>
|
|
|
|
Although backend programming languages can be removed directly using
|
|
|
|
several <acronym>SQL</acronym> commands, it is recommended to use
|
|
|
|
<application>droplang</application> because it performs a number
|
|
|
|
of checks and is much easier to use. See
|
