In Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web projects, we can directly access Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.HttpContext.

How to access HttpContext in Microsoft.NET.Sdk projects (representing a class library)? We discuss the tried options in the following table.

Option Discussion
Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web projects We can access HttpContext, but a static Main method suitable for an entry point must be defined. And it does not represent a class library.

    starting with net6, you specify the sdk.

    <Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Library</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>net6.0</TargetFramework>
    <ImplicitUsings>enable</ImplicitUsings>
    <Nullable>enable</Nullable>
  </PropertyGroup>
</Project>
