AppDelete

You can use the AppDelete method of the IIsWebDirectory or IIsWebVirtualDir 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   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.

Syntax

Parameters

DirObj

An IIS Admin object of type IIsWebDirectory or IIsWebVirtualDir.

Code Example

<% 
  Dim DirObj 
  Set DirObj = GetObject("IIS://LocalHost/W3SVC/1/ROOT/MyAppDir") 
  'Delete the application at this directory. 
  DirObj.AppDelete 
%>
