Loader.Error not changing on Exception

Hi Jean

I don’t think this is a bug in your library, might just be a misunderstanding on my part. Earlier today I was simulating a scenario whereby a user doesn’t have an internet connection, wifi’s off, mobile data on but they don’t have data. I set the HttpClient’s timeout to 30 seconds, when the TaskCanceled exception is thrown, there’s no property changed event from the TaskLoaderNotifier like how there usually is for other errors, I usually check Loader.Error and handle errors based on what’s there. Am I missing anything?

Here’s a sample that replicates the issue

Thanks again for the library Jean!

Everything you mentioned above is exactly what I’m doing. In the meantime let me show you my ugly workaround 😁

if (e.PropertyName == "Error")
            {
                if (Loader.Error != null)
                {
                    if (Loader.IsFaulted && ! Loader.IsCanceled)
                    {
                        TaskMonitor.Create(HandleErrorAsync);
                     }
                }

                else if (Loader.Error == null)
                {
                    if (Loader.IsFaulted && Loader.IsCanceled)
                    {
                        Loader.Error = new TaskCanceledException();
                    }
                }


            }
            if (e.PropertyName == "IsFaulted")
            {
                if (Loader.IsFaulted && Loader.IsCanceled)
                {
                    Loader.Error = new Exception();
                }
            }

100% right it is a state, I’ll have a look and let you know if I can setup a global configuration for task loader through task monitor. Thanks Jean!
