So does that imply to the function associated with the operators (both builtin and user defined) too.
Basically wanted to know about this -

Eg.From the create view documentation:Functions called in the view are treated the same as if they had been called directly from the query using the view. Therefore, the user of a view must have permissions to call all functions used by the view. Functions in the view are executed with the privileges of the user executing the query or the function owner, depending on whether the functions are defined as SECURITY INVOKER or SECURITY DEFINER.
