HttpModule not compiling

[tshad]

I am trying to build an HttpModule and am building just the skeleton part of
the program in VS 2003 and am getting a couple of errors. But this is how I
have seen the file built in a couple of different places.

The errors are:
C:\VSProjects\H ttpModules\Http Modules.cs(6): The type or namespace name
'IHttpModule' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an
assembly reference?)

and

C:\VSProjects\H ttpModules\Http Modules.cs(9): The type or namespace name
'HttpApplicatio n' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or
an assembly reference?)

I am building this as a class library and the Using clauses are the same as
I have seen elsewhere. Do I need something else (I assume I do)?

*************** *************** *************** ************
using System;
using System.Web;

namespace HttpModuleExamp les
{
public class CustomHttpModul e : IHttpModule
{
//IHttpModule Members
public void Init(HttpApplic ation httpApp)
{
httpApp.BeginRe quest += new EventHandler(th is.OnBeginReque st);
httpApp.EndRequ est += new EventHandler(th is.OnEndRequest );
}
public void Displose()
{
//Usually nothing has to happen here
}

// Event Handlers
public void OnBeginRequest( object o, EventArgs ea)
{
HttpApplication httpApp = (HttpApplicatio n) o;
HttpContext ctx = HttpContext.Cur rent;
ctx.Response.Wr ite("Beginning Request <br>");
}

public void OnEndRequest(ob ject o, EventArgs ea)
{
HttpApplication httpApp = (HttpApplicatio n) o;
HttpContext ctx = HttpContext.Cur rent;
ctx.Response.Wr ite("Ending Request <br>");
}
}
}
*************** *************** *************** ************

Thanks,

RE: HttpModule not compiling

Tshad,
IHttpModule interface lives in System.Web. It's not sufficient just to put a
"using" directive at the top of your class. If the assembly is not in the
default assemblies loaded for the project type, you need to specifically add
a reference to it.

That did it.

I assumed that since it worked fine for my Web Applications, it would work
for my Classes. But the Web Applications assume that it will need that
library and a class doesn't necessarily know that, I would guess.
