sqlite alter table add MULTIPLE columns in a single statement

Question

Is it possible to alter table add MULTIPLE columns in a single statement in sqlite? The following would not work.

alter table test add column mycolumn1 text, add          


        

Answer 1

The only thing so far possible that I use is

BEGIN TRANSACTION;
ALTER TABLE tblName ADD ColumnNameA TEXT DEFAULT '';
ALTER TABLE tblName ADD ColumnNameB TEXT DEFAULT '';
ALTER TABLE tblName ADD ColumnNameC TEXT DEFAULT '';
COMMIT

Note that there are ; on purpose to make the query be read as multiple lines.

Then I run this query and get multiple columns added in on run... So no not in one line, but yes in one query its possible.
