+/**
+ * Tool for working with Lists and arrays in Velocity templates.
+ * It provides a method to get and set specified elements.
+ * Also provides methods to perform the following actions to Lists and arrays:
+ * <ul>
+ *   <li>Check if it is empty.</li>
+ *   <li>Check if it contains a certain element.</li>
+ * </ul>
+ *
+ * <p><pre>
+ * Example uses:
+ *  $primes                    -> new int[] {2, 3, 5, 7}
+ *  $list.size($primes)        -> 4
+ *  $list.get($primes, 2)      -> 5
+ *  $list.set($primes, 2, 1)   -> (primes[2] becomes 1)
+ *  $list.get($primes, 2)      -> 1
+ *  $list.isEmpty($primes)     -> false
+ *  $list.contains($primes, 7) -> true
+ *
+ * Example toolbox.xml config (if you want to use this with VelocityView):
+ * &lt;tool&gt;
+ *   &lt;key&gt;list&lt;/key&gt;
+ *   &lt;scope&gt;application&lt;/scope&gt;
+ *   &lt;class&gt;org.apache.velocity.tools.generic.ListTool&lt;/class&gt;
+ * &lt;/tool&gt;
+ * </pre></p>
+ *
+ * <p>This tool is entirely threadsafe, and has no instance members.
+ * It may be used in any scope (request, session, or application).
+ * </p>
