How do I get the current directory in a web service

Question

I am using System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory() to get the current directory in my web service, but that does not give me the current directory. How do I get the curren

Answer 1

HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/") would get you the root of the application?

Which is plenty most likely as you probably know the path from there.

Another option which might be of interest:

HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("/Directory/") 

This builds from the root of the application no matter what.

Without the first slash this will take directory from where you call as the start:

HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("Directory/")
