The InheritInChildApplications property represents the inheritInChildApplicationsattribute of a location element in a configuration file.
Set InheritInChildApplications to false to prevent settings that are specific to a certain location (such as the root directory of a Web site) from being inherited by applications that exist in subdirectories.
The following example shows how to use this attribute in a configuration file to specify that the settings defined in the location element for the root of a Web site should not be inherited by child applications:
<location path="." inheritInChildApplications="false">
The InheritInChildApplications property applies only to location-specific configuration settings.
