Question

I need to parse WCF binary response. The reason is that I have no contract nor metadata I can just call wcf service with parameters using WebClient. What I’m getting now is binary response with xml inside but when I want to deserialize it with BinaryFormatter and load xml document, it gives me an error because of leading data. Is there some class which can do this for me?

Thanks.

thank you for responses. Actually I ended up following this blog post (Fiddler plugin):

there is also a link to source code:
