only if you make it static

Sorry. I changed it static and tried to call the method. But I got an error.

try chaning async public to public async and see if it works then

make sure your Program class is public too

Don't use new Task() btw

whats the difference between doing Task task = StreamSample.StreamSampleMain() and Task task = new Task(StreamSample.StreamSampleMain)?

if any

Make sure class is public, and use Task.Run

with new Task you have to remember to start the task yourself. Look at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/parallel-programming/task-based-asynchronous-programming#creating-and-running-tasks-explicitly for more info

its usually recommended to use TaskFactory.StartNew if you need fine-grained control over your task

but wouldn't we resole the task using await task either way?

sure

so what's the diff

Task task = new Task(...);
task.Start();
await task();

vs

Task task = AsyncStuff();
await task();

oh okay
