Delete a view.
Syntax
<drop view statement> ::=

DROP VIEW [ IF EXISTS ] [ schema-name. ] view-name [ RESTRICT ]

Usage
The DROP VIEW statement deletes the view specified by view-name from the database.
Notes
§
|
The current database is implicit if a schema name is not specified.
|
§
|
The IF EXISTS clause can be specified to avoid an exception when attempting to delete a view that does not exist in the database.

§
|
RESTRICT, which is implicit if not explicitly specified, prevents the view from being deleted if the view is referenced by other database objects.

§
|
The DROP VIEW statement requires exclusive access to the view being deleted.
