MyBatis executing multiple sql statements in one go, is that possible?

i was wondering if it is possible to execute multiple sql statements in 1 go. For example the scenario that i want to delete rows from multiple tables, is there a way i can do things like..

<delete id="delete" parameterType="String">
    DELETE FROM DUMMYTABLE_A where X=${value}
    DELET开发者_JAVA百科E FROM DUMMYTABLE_B where X=${value}
</delete>

I'm using myBatis with Oracle. I guess there is something similar in other DB. Actually you always can create procedures in DB, which usually is better for the future, when you have to support the project.

<delete id="deleteUnfinishedData" parameterType="map">
    {call
        declare
        begin
            delete from TABLE1 where id = #{valueFromMap1};
            delete from TABLE2 where id = #{valueFromMap2};
        end
    }
</delete>

Yes, most databases allow this. Usually you have to delimit your SQL statements with something. In PostGRES and MySQL it's a semicolon (;). In Microsoft SQL server you should use the keyword GO. [ May 2013 Update: As of SQL Server 2012, you can and should use semicolons to delimit your statements. After SQL Server 2012 (ie. the next version and beyond) these will be mandatory. Using GO is now the deprecated way to do things in SQL2012 and beyond). ]

MySQL / PostGRES example:

 DELETE FROM DUMMYTABLE_A where X=${value};
 DELETE FROM DUMMYTABLE_B where X=${value};
 DELETE FROM DUMMYTABLE_C where X=${value};

MS-SQL example:

 DELETE FROM DUMMYTABLE_A where X=${value}
 GO
 DELETE FROM DUMMYTABLE_B where X=${value}
 GO
 DELETE FROM DUMMYTABLE_C where X=${value}

Better databases (ie. not MySQL) will also support transactions with BEGIN TRAN / COMMIT TRAN / ROLLBACK TRAN. Using transactions you can actually batch all the statements into one atomic operation, where if part of it failed, all three would be rolled back. See http://www.sqlteam.com/article/introduction-to-transactions for some more information about those.

Most likely all you need is the semicolons between your SQL statements though!

if anyone got an error like

Cause: java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'UPDATE mytable

You can fix this by allowing multi queries in your driver. For mariadb it would be the same as MySQL

allowMultiQuery=true

described in following mybatis issue https://github.com/mybatis/mybatis-3/issues/1497

This code works for multiple Select in one go in MSSQL:

<select id="selectMultipleQueries" resultSets="movies,genres" resultMap="multipleQueriesResult">
        BEGIN
            select M.ID_         as mId,
                   M.NAME_       as mName,
            from TestMyBatis.dbo.Movie as M
            where M.ID_ = #{id,jdbcType=INTEGER,mode=IN};
            select G.ID_ as gId, 
                   G.NAME_ as gName
            from TestMyBatis.dbo.Genre as G
            where G.ID_ = #{id,jdbcType=INTEGER,mode=IN};
        END
</select>
