Startup class in ASP.NET MVC 5

Question

I am curious about Startup class in ASP.NET MVC 5, when I remove the assembly attribute from the Startup class, the code inside Startup class is still being executed.

using Microsoft.Owin;
using Owin;
using SignalRChat;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;

//[assembly: OwinStartup(typeof(SignalRChat.Startup))]
namespace SignalRChat
{
   public class Startup
   {
       public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
       {
        app.MapSignalR();
    }
   }
}

Anybody can tell me why this happened?

Thanks

try to clean the build and rebuild the solution

OWIN Startup Class Detection | The ASP.NET Site:

You connect the startup class with the hosting runtime using one of the these approaches:

Naming Convention: Katana looks for a class named Startup in namespace matching the assembly name or the global namespace.

OwinStartup Attribute: This is the approach most developers will take to specify the startup class.

The appSetting element in the Configuration file

Emphasis mine. Your class is used because of its name.
