It looks like you will have to drop the type and re-create it.
You might have to try a couple of tests:
1) BEGIN TRANSACTION;
DROP the type
create the type
commit; --does your table have still reference this type?
2) BEGIN TRANSACTION;
CREATE a new type with a different name
alter the table column to refer to the new type
drop the old type
Commit;
I wonder if it is possible to create an enum type using a select statement. This way the contents of the type can be
seenin a base table. and it would be easy to recreate the type when new elements are added or removed. I'll have to
playaround with this in the future to see what is possible.
