FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.6.0_16"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_16-b01)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 14.2-b01, mixed mode, sharing)

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The attached java code performs the copy operation, by creating a custom data flavor using the command: DataFlavor("image/svg+xml").
The copy operation completes successfully, but the mimetype name is mangled. Monitor the result using the Windows program Clipview.exe, from http://www.peterbuettner.de/develop/tools/clipview/index.html

The data shows up under the name 'JAVA_DATAFLAVOR:image/svg+xml; class=java.io.InputStream' instead of the expected mimetype, which would be just 'image/svg+xml'.


STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
run the attached code and check the mimetype in the system clipboard

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
image/svg+xml
ACTUAL -
JAVA_DATAFLAVOR:image/svg+xml; class=java.io.InputStream

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
