c# - How do I get StatusCode from HttpRequestException? -

i'm missing obvious here.

i'm using httpclient throws httprequestexception contains statuscode in message string.

how can access statuscode?

edit: more info, wrote question in rush.

i'm using httpclient access api within webapi project. yes, know why i'm calling ensuresuccessstatuscode(). want propagate errors downstream such 404 , 403.

all wanted consistently transform httprequestexception httpresponseexception using custom exceptionfilterattribute.

unfortunately, httprequestexception not carry info use besides message. hoping uncover statuscode in raw (int or enum) form.

looks can either:

1. use message switch status code (bleh)
2. or create version of ensuresuccessstatuscode , throw exception that's usable.

status code passed part of string httprequestexception cannot recover such exceptions alone.

the design of system.net.http requires access httpresponsemessage.statuscode instead of waiting exception.

if following the microsoft guide, make sure understand why asks call httpresponsemessage.ensuresucessstatuscode. if don't call function, there should no exception.
