If you consume a SPWebApplication object as a parameter, you can return the virtual directory path by using the GetIisSettingsWithFallback() method to return the settings for a specified SharePoint zone.

Here is a static method that demonstrates how to do it:

Select For Unformatted Code
C#:
  1. public static string GetVirtualDirectoryPath(SPWebApplication webApp)
  2. {
  3. string path = string.Empty;
  4. try
  5. {
  6. if (webApp != null)
  7. {
  8. path = webApp.GetIisSettingsWithFallback(SPUrlZone.Default).Path.ToString();
  9. }
  10. }
  11. catch (Exception exception)
  12. {
  13.  
  14. }
  15. return path;
  16. }
