Is there an alternative to _Host.cshtml.cs?

Hi Dan,

Thank you for this upgrade process. It works well. For step 3, is there a new way to handle code from Pages/_Host.cshtml.cs? I have used that to access the request header (HttpContext) values in Blazor apps prior to ASP.NET Core 8.

Hi @mrlife. In .NET 8 RC2 you will be able to access the HttpContext from App.razor as a cascading value like this:

[CascadingParameter]
public HttpContext HttpContext { get; set; }

In .NET 8 RC1 you can use the HttpContext accessor service from static server components as a temporary workaround.

Thank you very much, this is great!

Per docs issue, adding the following: cc: @guardrex dotnet/AspNetCore.Docs#30575
