.net-core-rc2

I am currently working with ASP.NET Core RC2 and I am running into some strange results. So I have an MVC controller with the following function: public HttpResponseMessage Tunnel() { var message = new HttpResponseMessage(HttpStatusCode.OK); message.Content = new StringContent("blablabla", Encoding.UTF8); message.Content.Headers.ContentType = new System.Net.Http.Headers.MediaTypeHeaderValue("text/plain"); message.Headers.CacheControl = new System.Net.Http.Headers.CacheControlHeaderValue { NoCache = true }; return message; } If I call this with postman with an Accept header set to text plain I

I am currently trying out the RC2 release of ASP.NET Core and I am running into an issue with SignalR . I need to be able to send messages to the client outside of the request thread. Now in the full .NET framework you can do this like: var context = GlobalHost.ConnectionManager.GetHubContext<MyHub>(); context.Clients.<SendMessage>() But in ASP.NET Core there is no GlobalHost . I found a similar question: How to get SignalR Hub Context in a vNext Project? Where the second answer provides a method to get the hubcontext outside the request thread, but this also does not work in ASP.NET Core . So

Just the dll. Am I overlooking something? Or is there something wrong with my project.json file? {

I'm making a console app on .Net Core platform and was wondering, how does one load assemblies (.dll files) and instantiate classes using C# dynamic features? It seems so much different than .Net 4.X and it's not really documented... For example let's say I have a class library (.Net Core) and it has only one class: namespace MyClassLib.SampleClasses { public class Sample { public string SayHello(string name) { return $"Hello {name}"; } public DateTime SayDateTime() { return DateTime.Now; } } } So the name of the dll file would be MyClassLib.dll and its located in /dlls/MyClassLib.dll . Now I
