DROP LANGUAGE

Name

DROP LANGUAGE -- remove a procedural language

DROP [ PROCEDURAL ] LANGUAGE [ IF EXISTS ] name [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]

DROP LANGUAGE will remove the definition of the previously registered procedural language called name.

IF EXISTS: Do not throw an error if the function does not exist. A notice is issued in this case.
name: The name of an existing procedural language. For backward compatibility, the name may be enclosed by single quotes.
CASCADE: Automatically drop objects that depend on the language (such as functions in the language).
RESTRICT: Refuse to drop the language if any objects depend on it. This is the default.

This command removes the procedural language plsample:

DROP LANGUAGE plsample;

There is no DROP LANGUAGE statement in the SQL standard.
