How can I check "Allow internal IIS properties" in COM + application?
Component Services -> Computers -> My Computer -> COM + Applications
Open the COM + Application object.
Open the components.
Right-click the class and select Properties.
Under the "Advanced" section, there is a checkbox "Allow built-in IIS properties".
How can I check this checkbox programmatically?
I can create and delete COM + applications programmatically, but the ComApplication class doesn't seem to have a way to change the settings in the generated application.

I found out how to do it.
Apparently I need to collect a collection of COM + applications, find the one I want (by name), then get the set of components in the application, then browse the collection and set the attribute:
//get collection of applications
COMAdminCatalog catalog = new COMAdminCatalog();
catalog.Connect("127.0.0.1");
COMAdminCatalogCollection applications = (COMAdminCatalogCollection)catalog.GetCollection("Applications");
applications.Populate(); //no idea why that is necessary, seems to be
// appId for the application we are looking for
object appId = new object();
int count = applications.Count;
ICatalogObject item;
if (count == 0) return;
//search collection for item with name we are looking for
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
item = (ICatalogObject)applications.get_Item(i);
if (applicationName == (string)item.get_Value("Name"))
{
appId = item.Key;
Console.WriteLine("appId found for " + applicationName + ": " + appId.ToString());
}
}
// get all components for the application
COMAdminCatalogCollection components;
components = (COMAdminCatalogCollection)applications.GetCollection("Components", appId);
components.Populate(); // again, no idea why this is necessary
// set the attribute in all components
foreach (COMAdminCatalogObject component in components)
{
Console.WriteLine("Setting IISIntrinsics attribute in " + component.Name + ".");
component.set_Value("IISIntrinsics", true);
components.SaveChanges();
}
I think it can be done better and with fewer casts. But I dont know how.
It will do it.
