Server.MapPath in Class ?

[Ddraig]

Howdy,

Trying to get Server.MapPath in a class file, I'm using VS2005 and not exactly sure what namespace I'm supposed to import. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Owen

Ideally, you won't import anything. Instead, create a Public Property in your class and set the value (using Server.MapPath) from your actual web page. If you want to go against the OO approach I described, use Httpcontext.Current.Server.MapPath but I wouldn't recommend it.

Well I wouldn't want to go against standard OO convention. Which is what I was wondering to begin with, but I am using a dataset, and need to get the file/server path to save it as an xml. So I'm just reading an XSD file to get the dataset structure then resaving the resulting xml. Or would passing in the path be a better option?

I'd pass in the path to where it should be saved.

Use System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath
