I need functionality like, Once i gave the Virtual path and application name, that should create two sites, and link those two sites to a single application pool
(ex: if i gave "xxx" as site name it should create two sits namely 1) "xxx" 2) "xxx_WSL" and application pool name also "xxx"). Everything working as expected, but only problem is all the applications use this new application pool as their application pool.

Currently am referring to "https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms525598.aspx".

A slightly more updated version can be found at:

Have a look at the System.Web.Administration namespace:

It looks like always you are trying to create new Applicaiton Pool.

If you want to do it programatically then follow the same code which you shared but just make sure that you are using same AppPool name while calling AssignVDirToAppPool while calling for both WebApplication.

If you does not want to do it programatically then simple way is while creating new (2nd) application from IIS Server Administration, instead of choosing Create New AppPool use existing one.

Note: You need to make sure that both Sites are build under same .Net compiler and crashing one site may reset AppPool for both of site.
