I just dealt with this last night converting the Handel TT plugins after
a conversion to DBIC. I had no problems using a resultset directly:

(Where items returns a resultset from  schema->resultset->search)



FOREACH (item IN cart.items.all)
...

items = cart.items
WHILE (item = items.next)
..


I thought everything in TT was a scalar context, until you appended
.list to the end of it, assuming the item in question has no list() method.


How about some TT code?
