From within an ISAPI filter, how to determine the virtual path for an IIS application?

Question

Is there a way, inside an ISAPI Filter, to determine the virtual path for the IIS application or virtual directory?

It's basically the same question as IIS Root Path vs Path of virtual directory, but rather than within an ASP.NET application, I want this from within an ISAPI filter.

Does the value of the server variable APPL_MD_PATH always ends with the actual virtual path of an application? Is it true that the format of APPL_MD_PATH is always

/LM/W3SVC/<sitenumber>/ROOT/<Website_vdir>

?

Answer 1

I don't know for sure, but I am guessing that the format for APPL_MD_PATH is always as above, so one can just get the tail segment of that server variable to get the virtual path.

Need to special case the root vdir.
