[fpc-pascal] Get highest element of a StringList

[James Richters]

This Helper sounds like a nice way to do it.  I need the numerical index of
the loop so this would be more straight forward.
Would I then do something like :
For I:= 0 to MyStringList.High Do 
?

When I try to add the Type statement:
type TStringListHelper = class helper for TStringList function High:
NativeInt; end;
I get    Error: Identifier not found "class"

I have the Classes unit.  Is there something else I am missing?
