[Catalyst] iterating ResultSet in controller vs. template

[Michael Reece]

either use iterators in both controller and template, or use array- 
refs in both, but don't try to use both at once with only one variable.

pick one:

    my $myalums  = $c->stash->{alumni} = [ $c->model('MyDB::Alumni')- 
 >search({}, { rows => 20  }) ] ;
    foreach my $alum (@$myalums) {
       print "id: ", $alum->alum_id, "\n";
    }
    ...
    [% FOREACH alum IN alumni -%]
        id: [% alum.alumni_id %]  <br />
    [% END -%]

-or-

    my $myalums  = $c->stash->{alumni} = $c->model('MyDB::Alumni')- 
 >search({}, { rows => 20  });
   while (my $alum = $myalums->next) {
       print "id: ", $alum->alum_id, "\n";
    }
   $myalums->reset;	# reset iterator!
    ...
   [%WHILE (alum = alumni.next) %]
        id: [% alum.alumni_id %]  <br />
    [% END -%]
