It's a Java class for taking a SQL statement, running it against a database, and returning the results in an XML document. The opposite is OracleXMLSave, which takes an XML document and writes it into Oracle tables.

That depends. XSU (the Oracle XML SQL Utilities) are happy enough assembling XML from relational tables. Other bits of Oracle, for example interMedia Text are happier with large chunks of plain XML that they can index themselves. What is your application?
