等待异步WCF方法

Question

I must be missing something obvious here. But I cant see wat I did wrong. I have the following code:

var resp = await client.findItemsByCategoryAsync(request);

But this code give me the following compiler error:

Though it says awaitable I cannot use the await keyword. The method is provided by a WCF service (Ebay Finding API)

Answer 1

The method containing the await operator must also be declared as async .

public async void YourMethodAsync()
{
     var resp = await client.findItemsByCategoryAsync(request);
}

The error message refers the current method, not the one you're calling await on.
