C#:
public string GetListUrl(SPList oList)
{
if (oList.DefaultView == null)
{

}
return (oList.ParentWeb.Url + "/" + oList.DefaultView.Url);
}
public string GetWebUrl(SPWeb oWeb)
{
return oWeb.Url;
}
private string GetCurRequestUrl()
{
string l_strCurRequest = this.Page.Request.Url.AbsoluteUri;
if (l_strCurRequest.IndexOf("/", 8)>= 0)
{
l_strCurRequest = l_strCurRequest.Substring(0, l_strCurRequest.IndexOf("/", 8));
}
return [...]
Answering another development question that was posted in the newsgroups, someone wanted to know assuming that they were aware of the path of an SPFolder object (a subfolder that existed in a SharePoint document library), how to return the GUID of the SharePoint document library that was housing the relevant SPFolder object.

There was a question posted in the development newsgroups about how to structure a different SPList return method then the orthodox SPWeb.GetList method out of the Microsoft.SharePoint namespace. Here is one that I use, which has some slight enhancements.

{
if (strPath.ToLower().StartsWith("http"))
{
strPath = strPath.Substring(m_oWeb.Url.Length + 1);
if (strPath.ToLower().StartsWith("lists"))
{
strPath = strPath.Substring(6);
}
}
if (strPath.IndexOf("/")> 0)
{
strPath [...]
