Question

I have small Asp MVC 3 project where I need to create link to file, but I don’t know what the name of the site will be.
So in my ActionResult I need to have next

public ActionResult LinkToFile()
         {

var fields = new[]{
                        new { type = "string",  name = "name" ,  title = "Name"} ,
                        new { type = "string" ,  name = "link" ,  title = "Link" }
                    };

                 var meta = new { fields };
                 var data = new[]
                           {
                               new
                                   {
                                       name = "PDF file",
                                        link =  http://example.com/files/file.pdf

                                   }
                           };


                 var res = new { contentType = "LinkToFile", id = 1, meta, data };
                 return Json(res, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);

   }

As I said before, I don’t know what the name of the site will be, where I can this: http://example.com ?
The file is located on the server in folder name “file”
