I believe that Ktor always returns a status code. Is there a way to get the finalized status code?
When using `on(ResponseSent)`, the status is nullable:
```on(ResponseSent) { call -&gt;
  call.response.status() // =&gt; HttpStatusCode?```

You will get the finalized status code in the handler for the  `ResponseSent` hook. Ktor doesn't store the sent status code in another object.

&gt; You will get the finalized status code in the handler for the  `ResponseSent` hook.
Could you share some sample code, please?

The code you shared should work as expected.

Is there a way to reliably obtain a non-null, finalized status code?

Does the `call.response.status()` call return null for your use case?

No, Ktor has never returned null.
However, I don’t understand why it’s defined as nullable.

It's because the status code can be set in the `ApplicationResponse`  at any point until the response is sent.
