Returing Virtual Directory Path From Web Application

If you consume a SPWebApplication object as a parameter, you can return the virtual directory path by using the GetIisSettingsWithFallback() method to return the settings for a specified SharePoint zone.

Here is a static method that demonstrates how to do it:

PLAIN TEXT

C#:

public static string GetVirtualDirectoryPath(SPWebApplication webApp)
{
string path = string.Empty;
try
{
if (webApp != null)
{
path = webApp.GetIisSettingsWithFallback(SPUrlZone.Default).Path.ToString();
}
}
catch (Exception exception)
{
}
return path;
}
