ASP.NET Identity - HttpContext has no extension method for GetOwinContext
I have downloaded, and successfully ran the ASP.NET Identity sample from here: https://github.com/rustd/AspnetIdentitySample
I am now in the middle of implementing the ASP.NET Identity framework in my project and have ran into a problem, that has driven me mad all day...
GetOwinContext()
does not exist as an extension method on myHttpContext
I am implementing the identity framework in class library. I have installed all the latest (pre-release version) of the Identity framework and everything - apart from this - is working fine.
I have tried implementing the same code as the same direct in my controller, and find the same problem.
I'm clearly missing a reference somewhere, though I have no idea what..!..
The code-block that is killing me is:
private IAuthenticationManager AuthenticationManager
{
get
{
return HttpContext.GetOwinContext().Authentication;
}
}
I have added references to the following - tried these both in my class library and also direct on the controller, none of them work for me...
using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity;
using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework;
using Microsoft.Owin.Security;
using Microsoft.Owin;
using System.Web;
... this is driving me up the wall....any idea?
UPDATE
I have checked the versions of Identity & OWIN in the sample, and I have made sure I have the same versions in my solution.
More so, if I search the object browser on the sample for GetOwinContext
I can find the method, however when I search for it in my solution it is nowhere to be found... I must have some library out of date, but I can't find it!
