And a pure XQuery solution :

select x.* 
from t
   , xmltable(
       'declare function local:gencode($e as element()) as xs:string*
        {
          string-join(
            for $i in $e/classWiseConfiguration
            let $str := concat($i/@load, $i/@classCode)
            return concat(substring("0000", string-length($str)+1), $str)
          , "/"
          )
        }; (::)
        element r { element bookedCount {local:gencode(/root/bookedCount)}
                  , element checkedInCount {local:gencode(/root/checkedInCount)} }'
       passing t.xml
       columns classWise_BookedCount    varchar2(4000) path 'bookedCount'
             , classWise_CheckedInCount varchar2(4000) path 'checkedInCount'
     ) x
;

Nice, Odie, but would you typically choose 100% xquery over other options, and would that choice be affected by RETURNING SEQUENCE BY REF in 12c?

I would choose pure a XQuery solution when the XQ expression only involves core functions, so that the CBO may optimize it using kernel's SQL functions.

The storage type of the input XML document matters too. Generally speaking, a functional evaluation via a call to the XQuery VM is more expensive compared to a streaming-based evaluation over binary XML. However, thanks to the new 12c XQ engine, some evaluations are now very fast even on transient XMLType instances.

Back to the current example, I have to admit if I were to implement it in real life, I'd probably use a mix of XQ and SQL (to perform the lpad and the aggregation parts).

I don't know whether RETURNING SEQUENCE BY REF could be useful in this situation.

I would only use this option when I want to access nodes in the context of the main XQ expression, from the COLUMNS clause.
