How can to set the wait time await result

Question

I have in my ms bot framework:

private async Task MessageReceivedAsync(IDialogContext context, IAwaitable<object> result)
{
    var activity = await result as Activity;
    context.Wait(MessageReceivedAsync);
}

How can I to set the wait time await result?

Answer 1

I suggest you try something like the following:

private async Task MessageReceivedAsync(IDialogContext context, IAwaitable<object> result)
{
    // Set the delay to whatever timeout interval you need (in milliseconds)
    if (Task.WaitAny(result.ToTask(), Task.Delay(1000)) == result) 
    {
        var activity = await result as Activity;
    }
    else
    {
        // Didn't complete during the defined interval
    }

    context.Wait(MessageReceivedAsync);
}

Update

Added usage of ToTask() to transform the IAwaitable to a Task that can be used with WhenAny.

Hope it helps!
