HStringList a Metrowerks PowerPlant class that implements an object for creation, management, and manipulation of string lists. It is primarily oriented towards 'STR#' resources, but the class can be easily modified to suit any similar such need.

HStringList can handle the read/write of the resource, management of it, use of Pascal-style or C-style strings. It might seem a bit overkill, but it strives to offer a lot of functionality and flexibility. And one doesn't even have to use this as a 'STR#' resource (the class is just biased towards that end); one could easily extend the class's functionality to suit just about any string-list management needs.

Due to developments in PowerPlant, HStringList requires at least PowerPlant v1.8 (part of CodeWarrior Professional 2). There is a simple demo application included in the archive to demonstrate how the class can work.
