Getting Absolute URL fron an ASP.NET MVC Action

Question

This probably is a dummy question but I cannot find a clear indication. I have a POCO class in a MVC3 web application whose only purpose is managing the backup of some files

Answer 1

From within the controller:

var path = VirtualPathUtility.ToAbsolute(pathFromPoco);
var url = new Uri(Request.Url, path).AbsoluteUri
