Obsolete WebHost and introduce an Analyzer to help migrate from it #27528

Description

@mkArtakMSFT

Summary

GenericHost is the preferred way of hosting apps and the WebHost is now legacy.
Obsoleting it would be a huge breaking change and to help customers to migrate from it we will need to also provide an analyzer.

This issue tracks the analyzer part of that effort.

Motivation and goals

Since GenericHost superseded WebHost in 3.0 we've stopped addressing issues in WebHost to minimize the maintenance burden, fixes only go into generic host. Long term we'll need to migrate people away from WebHost so we don't have to keep supporting two models.

Would definitely be good to have an analyzer that helps guide the required changes that need to be made. Thanks!

  • Obsolete in preview2 and work on an analyzer during the rest of 6.0.
  • Document/fixing gaps between the two hosting models.

We aren't adding any new features to WebHost. Our templates have been using GenericHost since 3.0.

Thanks for contacting us.

We're moving this issue to the .NET 8 Planning milestone for future evaluation / consideration. We would like to keep this around to collect more feedback, which can help us with prioritizing this work. We will re-evaluate this issue, during our next planning meeting(s).
If we later determine, that the issue has no community involvement, or it's very rare and low-impact issue, we will close it - so that the team can focus on more important and high impact issues.
