ALTER TABLE .. RENAME INDEX
Applies to ✅ Open Source Edition ✅ Express Edition ✅ Professional Edition ✅ Enterprise Edition
Like most object types, indexes can be renamed. As some RDBMS treat indexes as objects contained in tables, just like constraints, this syntax is offered also as an alternative to the more popular variant of the ALTER INDEX .. RENAME statement:
// Rename a index (as a convenience for the ALTER INDEX statement) create.alterTable("table").renameIndex("old_index").to("new_index").execute();
