Question

I try to do something really simple in theory : deserialize a string to a Message, here is the code :

[TestMethod]
public void EncoderErrorTest()
{
    var message = "<s:Envelope xmlns:s=\"http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope\" xmlns:a=\"http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing\"><s:Header><a:Action s:mustUnderstand=\"1\">http://tempuri.org/IHelloWorldService/SayHello</a:Action></s:Header><s:Body><SayHello xmlns=\"http://tempuri.org/\"><name>Nico</name></SayHello></s:Body></s:Envelope>";

    MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream();
    StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(stream);
    writer.Write(message);
    stream.Position = 0;
    var soapMessage = new TextMessageEncodingBindingElement().CreateMessageEncoderFactory().Encoder.ReadMessage(stream, 99999);
    Assert.IsNotNull(soapMessage);
}

But during the deserialization I get a XmlException “Unexpected end of file”.
Is something wrong with my code ?

Thanks in advance for your responses.

Try calling Flush on your StreamWriter before you read from the stream (or better yet, put it in a using-block).
