What I do:
Copy an xml file (ctrl+C) on a Win Server 2008 machine.
Minimize mstsc.exe (remote connection app).
Paste
the xml file on
to my WinXP machine (ctrl+V).
The result:
All of
the original contents are still present but another bit is appended at
the end of it.
E.g.
the proper end of
the file looks something like this:
<ApplicationName>MyApp</ApplicationName>
</ReceivePort>
</ReceivePortCollection>
<PartyCollection xsi:nil="true" />
</BindingInfo>
But, after
the copy, it looks like this:
<ApplicationName>MyApp</ApplicationName>
</ReceivePort>
</ReceivePortCollection>
<PartyCollection xsi:nil="true" />
</BindingInfo>al, PublicKeyToken=3zzf3xxxadyyy35" Type="1" TrackingOption="ServiceStartEnd MessageSendReceive PipelineEvents" Description="" />
<ReceivePipelineData xsi:nil="true" />
<SendPipeline xsi:nil="true" />
<SendPipelineData xsi:nil="true" />
<Enable>true</Enable>
<ReceiveHandler Name="WCF_OracleDB_Rx" HostTrusted="false">
<TransportType Name="WCF OracleDB" Capabilities="779" Configuratio
The extra bits it adds are things that come from earlier in
the XML file. If I do
the copy multiple times,
the extra bits are always exactly
the same but another XML file will add different lines.
Extra information:
If I copy/paste
the file, as above, but first enclose it into a zip file I do not have
the same problem. I.e.
the file copies properly and without any extra surprises.
If I do a copy/paste from a Windows Explorer window that's opened
to the folder on
the remote machine, I do not have
the same behavior. I.e.
the file copies properly and without any extra surprises.
Question:
Why does this happen?
