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?
