How to access App_Data folder in WCF service?
I have placed a xslt file and I am not able to find the path.

A:
You need to use HostingEnvironment.ApplicationPhysicalPath:
string myXsltFilename = HostingEnvironment.ApplicationPhysicalPath +
"App_Data\\my.xslt";

You should use the static methods on the Path class when working with paths.

Possibly, but every MSDN article I've ever seen using this technique always uses a string literal for App_Data.

HostingEnvironment.MapPath() combines the two. There is no constant for App_Data however so you are stuck with hard coding that. Not that it can change though.
