Thanks for your information. I think that it will be a mistake to deprecate XML output capabilities. Generating xml from database is one of the most common use cases.

I thought I remember a thread on this list mentioning where people thought that the XML result type (resultClass="xml") was/should be deprecated, since it isn't the fundamental purpose of IBATIS. My particular need is to use IBATIS with Spring to do queries. Does Spring help out with producing XML results and/or converting results into XML? BTW Oracle has an XSQL technology that produces XML directly from SQL queries.
