IIsWebDirectory.AppDelete (ADSI)

  • Article

You can use the AppDelete method of the IIsWebDirectory (ADSI) or IIsWebVirtualDir (ADSI) object to delete a Web application definition from a metabase key. If the application is running, it will be shut down. If the application is in-process with IIS, all resources associated with the application (such as out-of-process applications) will be released if the resource is not referenced by another in-process application.

note Note Server component DLLs are not released from in-process applications, even if they are not currently referenced by other applications.

Deletions performed by using AppDelete cannot be undone.

  <% 
  Dim DirObj
