public class StringList
extends ArrayList<String>

Utility class to hold a list of strings and convert them to a comma-separated string, as required by various web service API methods.

Note that the toString() method just joins the strings together using commas with no escaping. This will give unexpected results if any of the strings in the list contains commas, but that should not be the case for any of the strings used by the web service API methods.
