#21 listify all XSD type objects when called as @{}

[Anonymous]

It would be very useful to be able to write the following idiom (safely):

for (@{$complexType->get_element}) {
}

This is especially useful when called from other "languages" like HTML::Template::Compiled, where you cannot do something like

$result = [ $result ] if ref $result ne 'ARRAY';
for (@{ $result })

The easiest way to fulfill this would be adding an :ARRAIFY method to SOAP::WSDL::XSD::Typelib::Builtin::anyType. This would result in the following behaviour:

Calling $complexType->get_element

- get_element is a list ref:
all fine, nothing triggered

- get_element is an object:
arraify triggered, should return [ $self ]

- get_element is undef:
remains undef.

So you have to write something like this in HTC:

<%IF_DEFINED complexType.get_element %>
<%LOOP complexType.get_element %>
