Minimal API renames in RC 1

Some APIs were renamed to improve the consistency of type names and to remove "minimal" and "action" from the API names.

Version introduced

ASP.NET Core 6.0 RC 1

Old and new behavior

• The Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder.MinimalActionEndpointConventionBuilder class was renamed to Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder.DelegateEndpointConventionBuilder.

  [!NOTE] This class was renamed again in RC 2 to xref:Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder.RouteHandlerBuilder?displayProperty=fullName.

• The Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder.MinimalActionEndpointRouteBuilderExtensions class was renamed to Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder.DelegateEndpointRouteBuilderExtensions.

  [!NOTE] This class was merged with xref:Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder.EndpointRouteBuilderExtensions?displayProperty=fullName in RC 2.

• The xref:Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.RequestDelegate parameter to Map, MapGet, MapPost, MapPut, MapDelete, MapMethod, MapFallback, and xref:Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.RequestDelegateFactory.Create(System.Delegate,Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.RequestDelegateFactoryOptions)?displayProperty=nameWithType was renamed from action to handler.

Change category

This change affects binary compatibility and source compatibility.

Reason for change

This change was made to improve the consistency of type names and to remove "minimal" and "action" from the API names.

Recommended action

Recompile any projects built with an earlier SDK. For most projects, this should be all that's necessary.

If your code references any of these type or parameter names directly by name, updated the code to reflect the new names.
