StiConfig.applicationDirectory in a web application

[Patrick8639]

Hello,
when we use InitWeb in StimulReport, it sets the StiConfig.applicationDirectory to HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(String.&Empty).
The problem is that if the current page that is calling InitWeb is not on a physical folder but on a virtual one, applicationDirectory is set to an non-existent folder and, during the compiling of the report, StimulReport makes this directory the default one and crashes.
It would be better to use the directory where the StimulReport dll is located, or use HttpRuntime.AppDomainAppPath.

Hello,

Unforunately, we cannot change the code. because this may cause problems for other users. The StiConfig.ApplicationDirectory property supports get/set methods. Assign the required value to it.

Thank you.

Andrew,
perhaps this can cause problems for other users, but you can perhaps avoid the crash in StimulReport, or change the directory when there is an exception in this line of code.
Or, at least, catch the exception and replace the message with something more useful for the user.
