How to return Geoposition instead of IAsyncOperation<Geoposition> or Task<Geoposition>?

[admin]

I've created a <a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/mt609012.aspx" rel="nofollow">Windows Runtime Component (C#)</a> in my javascript UWP app, but am having trouble getting it to return the result I want. It builds fine, but on debugging, null is returned, instead of the Geoposition object.

Since the function below needs to be called in my javascript app, it seems I <a href="https://marcominerva.wordpress.com/...async-methods-in-a-windows-runtime-component/" rel="nofollow">can't use the async keyword,</a> but I can do it in a wrapper:

 public static Geoposition GetGeolocation()
    {
        Geolocator _geolocator = new Geolocator();
        MapLocation mapInfo = null;

        _geolocator.DesiredAccuracyInMeters = 5;

        try
        {
            Geoposition currentPosition = GetGeopoisitionWrapper(_geolocator).Result;                     
      //      Geoposition currentPosition = GetGeopoisitionWrapper(_geolocator).AsAsyncOperation().GetResults(); 

            //other stuff needing currentPosition, and another async function call

            return currentPosition;
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            return null;
        }

    }

Wrapper:

   private static async Task<Geoposition> GetGeopositionWrapper(Geolocator g)
    {
        Geoposition currentPosition = await g.GetGeopositionAsync();                     // get the raw geoposition data

        return currentPosition;
    }

Javascript function call:

function getLocationForMap() {
    Windows.Devices.Geolocation.Geolocator.requestAccessAsync().done(
        function (accessStatus) {
            switch (accessStatus) {
                case Windows.Devices.Geolocation.GeolocationAccessStatus.allowed:
                    var result = SampleComponent.Example.getGeolocation();
                    break;

                case Windows.Devices.Geolocation.GeolocationAccessStatus.denied:
                    WinJS.log && WinJS.log("Access to location is denied.", "sample", "error");
                    break;

                case Windows.Devices.Geolocation.GeolocationAccessStatus.unspecified:
                    WinJS.log && WinJS.log("Unspecified error!", "sample", "error");
                    break;
            }
        },
        function (err) {
            WinJS.log && WinJS.log(err, "sample", "error");
        });
}

The reason why I need to do this part in C# is because one of the function calls I need is missing (perhaps the developers forgot to include it) from the javascript API, but exists in C#.
