Aspnetcore.docs: WriteResponseBodyAsync is wrong for 3.1

[PeterWone]

The last line of the method reads

await response.WriteAsync(buffer.ToString());

but Microsoft.AspNetCore.HttpResponse does not have a WriteAsync method.

It _does_ have a property Body which has a WriteAsync method but this does not have a signature supporting a string parameter.

The code works. Must be an extension method your missing.

This requires using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http; for the extension method.

[PeterWone]

I just went through the article again and couldn't see any mention of the requirement for using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http. Don't you think it would be appropriate to put a comment in the code?

That's a change that will be picked up by #16486
