Hi Group,

I am trying to read xml response from a servlet using XmlTextWriter. I am able to read the read half of the xml and suddenly an exception: “Unexpected end of file while parsing Name has occurred” is being thrown.

Following is the part o xml I am trying to read:
 <CHECK_ITEM_OUT>
 <ITEM id="">

  <ITM_NUMBER>1</ITM_NUMBER>
  <MATERIAL>001</MATERIAL>
   <DEALER_CODE>DEL_One</DEALER_CODE>
  <BRAND>Bridgestone</BRAND>
  <HIERARCHY>HAR001</HIERARCHY>
  <NET_PRICE>123.12</NET_PRICE>
  <CURRENCY>EURO</CURRENCY>
</ITEM>
 <ITEM id="">

  <ITM_NUMBER>2</ITM_NUMBER>
  <MATERIAL>002</MATERIAL>
   <DEALER_CODE>DEL_Two</DEALER_CODE>
  <BRAND>Firestone</BRAND>
  <HIERARCHY>HAR002</HIERARCHY>
  <NET_PRICE>453.12</NET_PRICE>
  <CURRENCY>EURO</CURRENCY>
</ITEM>
<ITEM id="">

  <ITM_NUMBER>3</ITM_NUMBER>
  <MATERIAL>003</MATERIAL>
   <DEALER_CODE />
  <BRAND>FIRESTONE</BRAND>
  <HIERARCHY>HAR001</HIERARCHY>
  <NET_PRICE>24.12</NET_PRICE>
  <CURRENCY>EURO</CURRENCY>
</ITEM>
</CHECK_ITEM_OUT>

When I am trying to read the <BRAND>FIRESTONE</BRAND> (In Third item in the list), I am getting the “Unexpected end of file while parsing Name has occurred” exception. I am able to read the values from <BRAND> element for first two elements.
Following is the code I am using for reading the xml.

case "BRAND":
  if (!xmlTextReader.IsEmptyElement)
   productInfo.Brand = xmlTextReader.ReadElementContentAsString(); break;

I also have searched net for this problem but I found nothing useful#61516;

Please let me know if I am doing something wrong or missing on something.

Thanks,
Anup Daware

Hi Group,

The problem is solved :)

Following lines were creating the problem:

  StreamWriter streamWriter = new StreamWriter(responseStream);

  streamWriter.Write(responseXml); //responseXml is a string

The the default buffer of StreamWriter is 4kb and the string responseXml is more than that, thus only a portion of my xml was being used by XmlTextWriter which is using responseStream: And that was the reason of Unexpected end of file while parsing Name has occurred exception.



Solution:


Rather than using the the StreamWriter, I directly used the responseStream.Write; for this I converted the string to byte array. Following is the code for it.

            String responseXml = GetResponseStream(uri, searchRequestXML);
            System.Text.UTF8Encoding ob = new UTF8Encoding();
            byte[] arr2 = ob.GetBytes(responseXml);
            responseStream.Write(arr2,0,arr2.Length);
            responseStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
            XmlTextReader xmlTextReader = new XmlTextReader(responseStream)




Well the conclusion is StreamWriter has a default size of 4KB which is not increased dynamically, and this is really unexpected.
