Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens version 6.15.0 no user context in AuthorizationHandlerContext

-

A lesson learned i would like to share.


I had a working JWT using RSA key pairs on a .NET 6 based API, installing Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens version 6.15.0 (latest) broke it, my custom policy handler were not getting the user context!


I tried everything i know to fix it from my side but only restoring back to version 6.14.1 fixed it for me.

I checked the package Github and it seems there are a couple issues mentioning dependencies version!

How to load a DLL and runtime, invoke a method by name, get result object and use it as a parameter on another unkown DLL .NET Core

-
That post title took me a while to come up with, but my idea is pretty simple, what id you need sort of a bootstrap that don't reference DLLs, still be able to manage a simple operation of of invoking methods and pass results to the next DLL on the list. C# and .NET Core as a strong type based doesn't really have obvious ways to accomplish this, but i think i got to it with the following code, what do you think? string sourceAsmName = "DllToLoadName"; Assembly sourceAsm = AssemblyLoadContext.Default.LoadFromAssemblyPath(AppContext.BaseDirectory + sourceAsmName + @".dll"); AssemblyLoadHelper.LoadReferencedAssemblies(sourceAsm); Type sourceType = sourceAsm.GetType(sourceAsmName + "." + source); MethodInfo? sourceMethod = sourceType.GetMethod("extract"); object? sourceInstance = Activator.CreateInstance(sourceType, new object[] { _config, _logger }); Task sourceTask = (Task)sourceMethod.Invoke(sourceInstance, null); _logger.LogInformati...

How to exclude files with specific extension from your web deploy package

-
i had to re-visit the topic of Web Deploy Package and how to exclude specific files from your package. and sometimes you get even better results then second round you check how to do something. and if you re like me "Mr. i did it before but now i have no idea how" you will get that chance a lot! actually this is one of the main reasons i started this blog, it's kind of my personal information technology, development and DevOps notes that i share with the world. so i wanted to remove all debug (*.pdb), all dll.config and all xml files from my package bin folder. first i found some search results that mention using "ExcludeFilesFromDeployment" tag in your pubxml publish profile file, but examples was to remove a single file by name, or even a multiple by using ; as a delimiter. then i though, what if i tried some common wild card patterns in there. so i came up with this under the "Project" tag <ExcludeFilesFromDeployment>bin\**\*.pdb;...
