Answer 1

In that respect, no it has not changed (but it has changed in many other ways).

If you are using MVC, HttpContext in a controller without a namespace prefix refers to a property on the Controller, not the class.

So you should be able to use:

System.Web.HttpContext.Current

Or, in MVC, a shortcut would just be HttpContext which is a wrapper around HttpContext.Current.
