 I am using Oracle Spatial to store GIS data, and I would like a way to
create Shapefiles from this database. Does anyibne know if this can be
done?

Oracle can use Java classes, so are there any free Java libraries that can
create Shapefiles?

Thanks,

Andrew

 You could use the open source GDAL library - that interfaces to Oracle
Spatial and includes ShapeLib, so can write out into shapefile format.

Yes, and the GDAL distribution also includes "ogr2ogr" a conversion
program for all supported formats.
Note that support for Oracle is not compiled in by default, you have to
configure that explicitly. Or download a ready made binary that has
Oracle support built in.

You could use ArcGIS or ArcView 3.2 or 3.3
