programmatically finding the application root

[Joel Barsotti]

If I have a class that I use in multiple applications (nested within a
single website), is there anyway programmatically to find out what which
directory is the application root?

 

[Lostinet.Web Support]

Request.ApplicationPath ?
Request.PhysicalApplicationPath

If I have a class that I use in multiple applications (nested within a
single website), is there anyway programmatically to find out what which
directory is the application root?

Here is a method I wrote that I use in a utility class.

public static string AppRoot
{
get
{
HttpContext context = HttpContext.Current;
string basePath = "";
string pathName = context.Request.ApplicationPath;
if ( pathName.Trim() != "/" )
{
basePath += pathName;
}
return basePath;
}
}
