Task Error when await in windows store application

Hej, I have a method:

    public static async Task<myClassl> GetData()
    {
        HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
        client.BaseAddress = new Uri("http:sasa.com");
        HttpResponseMessage response = await client.GetAsync("api/GetData");
        myClassl data = await response.Content.ReadAsAsync<myClassl>();

        return data ;
    }

And when I write

myClassl  t = await DataGetter.GetData();

I have: The 'await' operator can only be used within an async method. Consider marking this method with the 'async' modifier and changing its return type to 'Task'.

You need to flag your method async where you write:

// Add async to your calling method
private async Task SomeOtherMethod()
{
    myClassl t = await DataGetter.GetData();

Any method that uses await internally must be an async method itself.
