Preserve MultiLine SQL

[ati-ozgur]

When I use ElSqlBundle to read external sql file. An multiline SQL changed to one line sql. For example:

@name(example)
SELECT
COUNT(*)
FROM
Employee

this is changed to
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Employee

I would like to preserve multi line structure of SQL if it is possible.

I'm sure it is possible. The question is why is it necessary?

If sql file content is preserved with multi lines, Database developer more easily re-use this files.
I would like to copy paste sql from Sql Client (Toad, Sql Server Management Studio) to elsql file. Also copy paste from elsql to this sql clients.
Right now : ElSql does not preserve multi lines therefore comments in sql does not work. Consider this example.

SELECT 
* FROM
EMPLOYEES  
WHERE
( -- only active employees
Status = 1
)

this sql is changed to following and gives sql error.

SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE ( -- only active employees Status = 1)

I would like to use my sql scripts with least amount of modification.

I fixed the trailing comment issue, but this one is surprisingly hard to fix as it has knock on effects all over the place,
