Empty Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel.Https assembly being removed

The assembly Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel.Https.dll has been removed.

Version introduced

3.0

Old behavior

Previously the assembly Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel.Https.dll was available.

New behavior

The assembly Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel.Https.dll doesn't exist anymore.

Reason for change

In ASP.NET Core 2.1 the contents of Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel.Https.dll were moved to Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel.Core.dll. This was done in a non-breaking way using TypeForwardedTo attributes.

Recommended action

• Libraries referencing Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel.Https 2.0 should update all AspNetCore dependencies to 2.1 or later. Otherwise they may break when loaded into a 3.0 application.
• Applications and libraries targeting AspNetCore 2.1 and later should remove any direct references to the Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel.Https nuget package.
