## Different return types (Either)
Sometimes you need to return different types of responses. For example
you can do error check and return error, otherwise return async response.
Or any result that requires two different types.
For this case [*Either*](../actix_web/enum.Either.html) type can be used.
```rust
# extern crate actix_web;
# extern crate futures;
# use actix_web::*;
# use futures::future::Future;
use futures::future::result;
use actix_web::{Either, Error, HttpResponse, httpcodes};
type RegisterResult = Either<HttpResponse, Box<Future<Item=HttpResponse, Error=Error>>>;
fn index(req: HttpRequest) -> RegisterResult {
if true { // <- choose variant A
Either::A(
httpcodes::HttpBadRequest.with_body("Bad data"))
} else {
Either::B( // <- variant B
result(HttpResponse::Ok()
.content_type("text/html")
.body(format!("Hello!"))
.map_err(|e| e.into())).responder())
}
}
fn main() {
Application::new()
.resource("/register", |r| r.f(index))
.finish();
}
```
## Tokio core handle
Any actix web handler runs within properly configured
