How to call this function

Question

Hi In Main i want to call Start() static void Main(string[] args) { Start(); } async Task Start() {} Thanks

If you want to call an asynchronous method Start() from the Main method, you'll need to make the Main method asynchronous as well. using System; using System.Threading.Tasks; class Program { static async Task Main(string[] args) { await Start(); } static async Task Start() { } } If you prefer not to make the Main method asynchronous, you can achieve this by running the asynchronous method Start() synchronously using Task.Run() inside Main(). using System; using System.Threading.Tasks; class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { Task.Run(() => Start()).GetAwaiter().GetResult(); } static async Task Start() { } }

using System; using System.Threading.Tasks; class Program { static async Task Main(string[] args) { // Call the Start method asynchronously await Start(); } static async Task Start() { // Your async code inside the Start method Console.WriteLine("Starting..."); // Simulate an asynchronous operation with Task.Delay await Task.Delay(2000); // This delays execution by 2000 milliseconds (2 seconds) Console.WriteLine("Done!"); } }

Hi It is giving message The await operator can only be used within an async method. static void Main(string[] args) { await Start(); } static async Task Start() {} Thanks

using System; using System.Threading.Tasks; class Program { static async Task Main(string[] args) { await Start(); } static async Task Start() { Console.WriteLine("Async method started..."); await Task.Delay(3000); Console.WriteLine("Async method completed!"); } }
