The VirtualPathExtension type exposes the following members.

This extension is present only for services hosted in IIS or WAS. Services can determine whether they are hosted in IIS or WAS by retrieving this extension from their ServiceHostBase, as shown in the following example.
The following example shows how to recover the VirtualPathExtension from the service host and return a value that it is hosted in IIS or WAS.
bool isHosted = false; ServiceHostBase host = OperationContext.Current.Host; VirtualPathExtension vpe = host.Extentions.Find<VirtualPathExtension>(); if( vpe != null ) Console.WriteLine("The virtualPath of the hosted Service is {0}", vpe.VirtualPath);
Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
