Re: Complex SQL request

You can use this overridden method of any TSQLRestClient client:

...
    /// Execute directly a SQL statement, expecting a list of resutls
    // - return a result table on success, nil on failure
    function ExecuteList(const Tables: array of TClass; const SQL: RawUTF8): TSQLTableJSON; virtual; abstract;

Use [TSQLPersons,TSQLOrders] in the Tables parameters (for the internal caching mechanism, but it's not mandatory).
Post your SQL request in the SQL parameter.
It will return a TSQLTableJSON instance to you, in which you'll have all the resulting rows.
