.NET 5已添加Convert.ToHexString方法。

对于使用旧版本.NET的用户

internal static class ByteArrayExtensions
{
    
    public static string ToHexString(this byte[] bytes, Casing casing = Casing.Upper)
    {
        Span<char> result = stackalloc char[0];
        if (bytes.Length > 16)
        {
            var array = new char[bytes.Length * 2];
            result = array.AsSpan();
        }
        else
        {
            result = stackalloc char[bytes.Length * 2];
        }

        int pos = 0;
        foreach (byte b in bytes)
        {
            ToCharsBuffer(b, result, pos, casing);
            pos += 2;
        }

        return result.ToString();
    }

    private static void ToCharsBuffer(byte value, Span<char> buffer, int startingIndex = 0, Casing casing = Casing.Upper)
    {
        uint difference = (((uint)value & 0xF0U) << 4) + ((uint)value & 0x0FU) - 0x8989U;
        uint packedResult = ((((uint)(-(int)difference) & 0x7070U) >> 4) + difference + 0xB9B9U) | (uint)casing;

        buffer[startingIndex + 1] = (char)(packedResult & 0xFF);
        buffer[startingIndex] = (char)(packedResult >> 8);
    }
}

public enum Casing : uint
{
    // Output [ '0' .. '9' ] and [ 'A' .. 'F' ].
    Upper = 0,

    // Output [ '0' .. '9' ] and [ 'a' .. 'f' ].
    Lower = 0x2020U,
}

改编自.NET存储库https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/v5.0.3/src/libraries/System.Private.CoreLib/src/System/Convert.cshttps://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/v5.0.3/src/libraries/Common/src/System/HexConverter.cs

这里不想赘述很多答案，但我发现了一个十六进制字符串解析器的相当优化（比公认的好4.5倍）、简单的实现。首先，我的测试输出（第一批是我的实现）：

Give me that string:

base64和“BitConverter'd”行用于测试正确性。请注意，它们是相等的。

实施：

public static byte[] ToByteArrayFromHex(string hexString)
{
  if (hexString.Length % 2 != 0) throw new ArgumentException("String must have an even length");
  var array = new byte[hexString.Length / 2];
  for (int i = 0; i < hexString.Length; i += 2)
  {
    array[i/2] = ByteFromTwoChars(hexString[i], hexString[i + 1]);
  }
  return array;
}

private static byte ByteFromTwoChars(char p, char p_2)
{
  byte ret;
  if (p <= '9' && p >= '0')
  {
    ret = (byte) ((p - '0') << 4);
  }
  else if (p <= 'f' && p >= 'a')
  {
    ret = (byte) ((p - 'a' + 10) << 4);
  }
  else if (p <= 'F' && p >= 'A')
  {
    ret = (byte) ((p - 'A' + 10) << 4);
  } else throw new ArgumentException("Char is not a hex digit: " + p,"p");

  if (p_2 <= '9' && p_2 >= '0')
  {
    ret |= (byte) ((p_2 - '0'));
  }
  else if (p_2 <= 'f' && p_2 >= 'a')
  {
    ret |= (byte) ((p_2 - 'a' + 10));
  }
  else if (p_2 <= 'F' && p_2 >= 'A')
  {
    ret |= (byte) ((p_2 - 'A' + 10));
  } else throw new ArgumentException("Char is not a hex digit: " + p_2, "p_2");

  return ret;
}

我尝试了一些不安全的东西，并将（显然是冗余的）字符移动到另一个方法来蚕食if序列，但这是最快的。

（我承认这回答了一半的问题。我觉得字符串->字节[]转换不足，而字节[]->字符串角度似乎被很好地覆盖了。因此，这个答案。）

两个mashup，将两个半字节操作合并为一个。

可能非常有效的版本：

public static string ByteArrayToString2(byte[] ba)
{
    char[] c = new char[ba.Length * 2];
    for( int i = 0; i < ba.Length * 2; ++i)
    {
        byte b = (byte)((ba[i>>1] >> 4*((i&1)^1)) & 0xF);
        c[i] = (char)(55 + b + (((b-10)>>31)&-7));
    }
    return new string( c );
}

Decadent linq与比特黑客版本：

public static string ByteArrayToString(byte[] ba)
{
    return string.Concat( ba.SelectMany( b => new int[] { b >> 4, b & 0xF }).Select( b => (char)(55 + b + (((b-10)>>31)&-7))) );
}

并反转：

public static byte[] HexStringToByteArray( string s )
{
    byte[] ab = new byte[s.Length>>1];
    for( int i = 0; i < s.Length; i++ )
    {
        int b = s[i];
        b = (b - '0') + ((('9' - b)>>31)&-7);
        ab[i>>1] |= (byte)(b << 4*((i&1)^1));
    }
    return ab;
}

扩展BigInteger方法（Gregory Morse在上面提到过）。我不能评论效率，它使用System.Linq.Reverse（），但它很小而且内置。

        // To hex
        byte[] bytes = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("Test String!£");
        string hexString = new System.Numerics.BigInteger(bytes.Reverse().ToArray()).ToString("x2");

        // From hex
        byte[] fromHexBytes = System.Numerics.BigInteger.Parse(hexString, System.Globalization.NumberStyles.HexNumber).ToByteArray().Reverse().ToArray();

        // Unit test
        CollectionAssert.AreEqual(bytes, fromHexBytes);

从微软的开发人员那里，一个很好的、简单的转换：

public static string ByteArrayToString(byte[] ba) 
{
    // Concatenate the bytes into one long string
    return ba.Aggregate(new StringBuilder(32),
                            (sb, b) => sb.Append(b.ToString("X2"))
                            ).ToString();
}

虽然上面的内容简洁紧凑，但性能狂热者会使用枚举器对此尖叫不已。通过Tomalak原始答案的改进版本，您可以获得最佳性能：

public static string ByteArrayToString(byte[] ba)   
{   
   StringBuilder hex = new StringBuilder(ba.Length * 2);   

   for(int i=0; i < ba.Length; i++)       // <-- Use for loop is faster than foreach   
       hex.Append(ba[i].ToString("X2"));   // <-- ToString is faster than AppendFormat   

   return hex.ToString();   
} 

这是迄今为止我在这里看到的所有例程中速度最快的。不要只相信我的话…对每个例程进行性能测试并自行检查其CIL代码。

有一个名为SoapHexBinary的类，它完全符合您的需要。

using System.Runtime.Remoting.Metadata.W3cXsd2001;

public static byte[] GetStringToBytes(string value)
{
    SoapHexBinary shb = SoapHexBinary.Parse(value);
    return shb.Value;
}

public static string GetBytesToString(byte[] value)
{
    SoapHexBinary shb = new SoapHexBinary(value);
    return shb.ToString();
}
