Method to get chosen list is .getListValue('value') Valdis

Hello,

I'm trying to get the value of a property in XWikiPreferences of type Database List that has mutiple-select capability. When I do $xwiki.getUserPreference("property_name"), it returns a string that is a representation of the value, so something like:

[Value1, Value2, Value4]

However, I need this to be a list so I can check if property.contains("Value4"). Is there an easy way to get a list from a preference, or do I need to go into the XWikiPreferences page, grab the object and get the value from there?

Thanks,
