Creating a Virtual Directory for Your Application

To run and view your new application, a "virtual directory" must be created on the web server.  A virtual directory links the application URL to the physical location of the application files. Technically, the use of the term virtual directory refers to an IIS Application, which is more fully explained in http://www.iis.net/learn/get-started/planning-your-iis-architecture/understanding-sites-applications-and-virtual-directories-on-iis . Taking that into consideration, we will use the term virtual directory in this documentation.

Applications built with Iron Speed Designer are fully compatible with Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS).  You can use Microsoft IIS to run your applications by using a URL similar to:

http://localhost/<application_name>
