<para>

To remove the extension <literal>hstore</literal> from the current
|
|
database:
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
DROP EXTENSION hstore;
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
This command will fail if any of <literal>hstore</literal>'s objects
|
|
are in use in the database, for example if any tables have columns
|
|
of the <type>hstore</> type. Add the <literal>CASCADE</> option to
|
|
forcibly remove those dependent objects as well.
