Can custom helper return object?

[hsamhita]

"{{someParentContextField}}
{{#with helperWhichReturnsObject}}
{{fieldFromHelperReturnedObject}}
{{/with}}"

Wondering if above is feasible. Any help is appreciated.

Unfortunately in current version it's not possible.
I've implemented such functionality in my fork zjklee/Handlebars.CSharp and currently working on back-porting the changes. For the whole list of changes please see zjklee/Handlebars.CSharp/pull/3
The correct template should look like this:

{{#with (helperWhichReturnsObject)}}
  {{fieldFromHelperReturnedObject}}
{{/with}}

The only difference is that you need to call the helper with return value as a sub-expression.

Thanks zjklee for the information!
