Support Grouping Multiple SQL Statements

Background I would like bring up the conversation of supporting grouping multiple SQL statements together to make it possible to use a single model in Java/Kotlin.

Usage Following is a simple use case.

Let’s say we have two tables:

salary
+-----+-----------------+--------+
| _id | title           | salary |
+-----+-----------------+--------+
| 1   | Sales Associate | 1000   |
+-----+-----------------+--------+
| 2   | Manager         | 1500   |
+-----+-----------------+--------+

salaryChangeNotes
+-----+----------+------------------------------------------+
| _id | time     | updateNote                               |
+-----+----------+------------------------------------------+
| 1   | 20170918 | Increase manager's salary to 1500        |
+-----+----------+------------------------------------------+
| 2   | 20180417 | Increase sale associate's salary to 1000 |
+-----+----------+------------------------------------------+

Every time we update the salary table, we would like to insert a note into salaryChangeNotes table.

One possible implementation probably would be like this:

salary.sq

// ... create table, other logic, etc

GROUP_STATEMENTS updateSalaryRecord {

UPDATE salary
SET salary=?
WHERE title=?;

INSERT INTO salaryChangeNotes(time, updateNote)
VALUES(?, ?);

}

So in business logic, we only need to call

updateSalaryModel.bind(2000, "Manager", "20180418", "Increase manager's salary to 2000");
// Wrap return values from multiple sql statements is something we need to take care of
int updated = updateNumber.executeGroupStatement();

With more statements being grouped together, the implementation of this feature will be cleaner compared with the current approach.

yes it is done, i just have to write the code

Any update on this?
