Yes and that's what is used now to map Java classes to Oracle, but what I'd rather know is if it's possible to map complex Java Objects directly to Oracle.
This way Application Servers (like the one built-in Oracle) could map this Objects to Java Applications without the need of a conversion. It's also called native mapping.
