问题
I have to add a system.web.http assembly reference because I added the HttpConfiguration class to my unit test class library project.
When I browse the Add reference dialog I can not find the system.web.http assembly.
The class library project has the .Net 4.5.1 framework targeted.
回答1:
in order to get the system.web.http you will need to install a nuget package in the nuget command line: Install-Package Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Core

I've had multiple errors regarding missing references such as "system.web.http" or "system.web.razor" in my project. Even though I do have all the references installed through nuget.
What worked for me was to install a standalone version of AspNetMVC4, even though Visual Studio 2014 installed that as well. Apparently it was missing some references in Windows. I've installed this from the Microsoft website, and all went well afterwards.
Hope this helps someone. It drove me crazy for like 2 days, nothing regarding nuget worked for me, I've deleted and reinstalled the references a couple times, did everything I've found in multiple posts on stackoverflow, nothing worked.
