Dimension List Bean

DimensionList is the generic dimension list bean. It provides more functionality than DimensionCombo, but less than DimensionListDialog.

DimensionList must be contained by another object. You can contain it in your own custom panel or dialog, or you can simply use the OLAPDimensionListPanel or the DimensionListDialog, which creates a DimensionList automatically through the OLAPDimensionListPanel.
