Once I use "Build->Publish->Create Service Package Only" to pack my Azure role I get two files. One is the .cscfg - a tiny XML file with service configuration. The other is the package itself which is in fact a ZIP archive with .cspkg extension.
The .cspkg file contains the .cssx file which grows larger and larger as I add stuff into my role. So I assume that the .cssx file contains all the contents of my role, binary files included. If I open it with a viewer - it doesn't contain any recognizable patterns, just some binary content.
I want to be sure that the package contains all the right stuff before I upload it to Windows Azure but since I can't analyze the .cssx file I can't do that. Is there a way to analyze the .cssx file to verify that it was assembled right?
