How can I execute a native SQL script in JPA/Hibernate?

Question

I have a SQL script with database dump. How can I execute it using Hibernate's EntityManager?

I tried it this way:

EntityManager manager = getEntityManager();  Query q = manager.createNativeQuery(sqlScript); q.executeUpdate(); 

but it works only when sqlScript contains a single SQL query, while I need to run multiple inserts and other complex stuff.

Wrap your query with begin end block. Like

EntityManager manager = getEntityManager();  Query q = manager.createNativeQuery("BEGIN " + sqlScript + " END;"); q.executeUpdate();
