I am building an ASP.NET Custom Web Control and I am wondering if there
is any standard method when implementing ControlDesigner for a Class to
determine what directory the project that that the Web Page that the control
has been embedded into is in while at Design Time.
so that if MyControl is embedded in PJ.aspx - i would like to get the ~/
folder for that current project that it is embedded in.
I was hoping for something that ControlDesigner or something else would
expose so that other Designers like (SharpDevelop/Delphi etc) would be able
to provide their own information for this .

Hi John,
Did you want to get the parent page's path? If so, you may try following
string:
this.Parent.Page.MapPath(".")

I apologize if I did not use the word Design Time and Control Designer enough times in my original post.

Hello,
For ControlDesigner class, you may get the web control this designer is
designing from its Component property. After get the IComponent, you can
get it and its parent component's properties.

I fail to see how that answers my original question of getting the project folder that the web control is embedded in.

Xyz web control is going to know no more about the Project Directory then xyz's parent or xyz's parent's parent.

John,
This code in your designer class obtains a DTE reference via IServiceContainer and some reflection. You can then access everything in the solution and its projects:
// Acquire service container
IServiceContainer objServiceContainer = (IServiceContainer)this.Component.Site.GetService(typeof(IServiceContainer));
object objServiceContainerServices = objServiceContainer.GetType().InvokeMember("Services",
BindingFlags.Instance|BindingFlags.NonPublic|BindingFlags.GetProperty,
null,
objServiceContainer,
new object[] { }
);
// Create a type of CodeDomProvider
Type domType = Type.GetType("System.CodeDom.Compiler.CodeDomProvider");
object objCodeDomProvider = ((Hashtable)objServiceContainerServices)[domType];
EnvDTE.ProjectItem objProjectItem = (EnvDTE.ProjectItem)objCodeDomProvider.GetType().InvokeMember("projectItem",
BindingFlags.Instance|BindingFlags.NonPublic|BindingFlags.GetField,
null,
objCodeDomProvider,
new object[] { }
);
// Create an EnvDTE.Project object
EnvDTE.Project objProject = objProjectItem.ContainingProject;
EnvDTE.Solution objSolution = objProject.DTE.Solution;

Thank you.
That seems to be what I needed hopefully. Now i just need to find out how well that works with other ASP.NET Desingers like the Web Matrix.

I tried to make such component myself, you can check it out at :
http://www.antoniob.com/projects/PDesignTimeTools.aspx
it uses similar code as Adam Barker posted for VS.NET, but my component
also works for Delphi.NET.
I tried to do the same for WebMatrix but no success :(
*PLEASE* mail me or post here if you find the way to get project folder in
design time for WebMatrix.
btw. PDesingTimeTools is free component with source code (Delphi.NET)
