Answer 1

The Oct 23 answer only iterates through all the apps. The question was how to obtain the CURRENT application name from an application running on IIS. Ironically, the question above helped me answer it.

using Microsoft.Web.Administration;
using System.Web.Hosting;

ServerManager mgr = new ServerManager();
string SiteName = HostingEnvironment.ApplicationHost.GetSiteName();
Site currentSite = mgr.Sites[SiteName];

//The following obtains the application name and application object
//The application alias is just the application name with the "/" in front

string ApplicationAlias = HostingEnvironment.ApplicationVirtualPath;
string ApplicationName = ApplicationAlias.Substring(1);
Application app = currentSite.Applications[ApplicationAlias];

//And if you need the app pool name, just use app.ApplicationPoolName

Answer 2

Add the following reference to your application: "c:\windows\system32\inetsrv\Microsoft.web.Administration.dll"

and use the code below to enumerate web site names and appropriate application names.

using Microsoft.Web.Administration;

//..

var serverManager = new ServerManager();
foreach (var site in serverManager.Sites)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Site: {0}", site.Name);
    foreach (var app in site.Applications)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(app.Path);
    }
}
