IWorkbook.Clone() always throws NullReferenceException in XlsIO for WinRT

[Giovanni Albani]

Dear Syncfusion support,

It seems that the method "IWorkbook.Clone()" causes a "NullReferenceException" in XlsIO for WinRT (11.2.0.25).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1) Create a new Excel document with Excel 2010

2) Save the document as XLSX

3) Open the document with XlsIO for WinRT (11.2.0.25)

4) Call the "Clone()" method of the workbook class.

EXPECTED RESULT : a copy of the workbook should be returned.

ACTUAL RESULT : a "NullReferenceException" is thrown.

Can you please tell me if there is any workaround for creating a full "in-memory" copy of a workbook, without saving to a file? The workaround that consists in copying all the worksheets to a new workbook using the "IWorksheets.AddCopy" method is not enough because the properties and other information of the workbook do not get copied.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Best regards,

Giovanni
