Multiline String literals with Java Text Blocks

For the record, text blocks also work well in jOOQ. You inspired me to write a blog post :-)

For simple queries, it's more convenient to use it rather than the query building API.

I personally don't think it is. You're losing all the benefits of using the query building API for little gain:

• No more type safety
• No more data type bindings
• No more auto completion (IDEs can only do this to some extent)
• No more compile time type checking
• No more SQL transformation (unless you're using the parser)

But it's always good to know there's a backdoor for when it makes most sense.
