From which ASP.NET application directory was a DLL called from?

[Guest]

I need to determine which ASP.NET web site directory a DLL was called from.
The directory path is needed so that a config file located there can be
called by a datalayer component in the same directory, that will be called by
the web site.

(A DLL called from an ASP.NET website is started not in that installation
directory but in C:\Windows\System for Windows 2000 and XP. For Windows 2003
Server, the location is C:\Windows\System\InetSrv and for running within
Visual Studio 2005, from within one of its directories.)

You can always call AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory

This answera a problem that has troubled me for some time. Whilst the
results are not quite consistant (for example Win Forms, Dos Apps and Windows
Service give the actual location of the bin directory where as Web Form and
Web Service give the web site sirectory not the location of the bin file),
the location is an actual one not a location within cache.

Thank you!
