How do I compare task<restsharp.responsestatus> with restsharp.responseerror

Question

See more:

I have a service what provides methods to send a API request. It is a async/await Task and returns a Task<responsestatus>.

The class what launches the service gets this and i want to check, if the ResponseStatus is ResponseStatus.Error.

I understand, that Task<restsharp.responsestatus> isnt directly compareable with Restsharp.ResponseError, but what can i do?

What I have tried:

I used as Service:
<pre lang="C#">
public async Task<ResponseStatus> SendRequest(){
// API Request
var result = response.ResponseStatus;
return result;
}

The Handler who launches the Request:

C#

var result = apiRequest.SendRequest(Method.Post, endpoint, body);
if (result == ResponseStatus.Error)
{ //stuff 
}

Your SendRequest method returns a Task<ResponseStatus>. You can't test the value returned by that task until the task has completed.

The simplest solution is to make your calling method async, and await the task:

C#

var result = await apiRequest.SendRequest(Method.Post, endpoint, body);
if (result == ResponseStatus.Error)
{
    // stuff
}
