Not like <select> can, no.

I am hoping this will not turn into another "we can't use any
database-specific features" thread, but several databases (like
Oracle) will let you do things like this:

<update id="saveSearchControls" parameterClass="map">
      begin
              delete from Parent where parentId = #value# ;
              delete from Child where parentId = #value# ;
      end;
</update>

That is a nice workaround for environments where you are not allowed
to create stored procedures. ;-)

That said, is there a way in iBatis to mimic a CASCADE DELETE by
executing several SQL statements in an iBatis SQL Map? Like selected
the elements in the child table with the FK of the master table and
deleting the selected child rows?

The documentation says that we can even put several SQL statements in
the SQL map if the JDBC driver supports it... Would it be the way to do
it?
