Cannot implicity convert type void to System.Threading.Tasks.Task<bool>
- by sagesky36
I have a WCF Service that contains the following method. All the methods in the service are asynchrounous and compile just fine.
public async Task<Boolean> ValidateRegistrationAsync(String strUserName)
{
try
{
using (YeagerTechEntities DbContext = new YeagerTechEntities())
{
DbContext.Configuration.ProxyCreationEnabled = false;
DbContext.Database.Connection.Open();
var reg = await DbContext.aspnet_Users.FirstOrDefaultAsync(f => f.UserName == strUserName);
if (reg != null)
return true;
else
return false;
}
}
catch (Exception)
{
throw;
}
}
My client application was set to access the WCF service with the check box for the "Allow generation of asynchronous operations" and it generated the proxy just fine.
I am receiving the above subject error when trying to call this WCF service method from my client with the following code. Mind you, I know what the error message means, but this is my first time trying to call an asynchronous task in a WCF service from a client.
Task<Boolean> blnMbrShip = db.ValidateRegistrationAsync(FormsAuthentication.Decrypt(cn.Value).Name);
What do I need to do to properly call the method so the design time compile error disappears?
Thanks so much in advance...
