我正在寻找一种方法来转换一个长字符串(从转储),它表示十六进制值到字节数组。

我不可能比在这里发布同样问题的人表达得更好。

但是为了保持它的原创性,我将以自己的方式表达它:假设我有一个字符串“00A0BF”,我希望将其解释为

byte[] {0x00,0xA0,0xBf}

我该怎么办?

我是一个Java新手,最后使用BigInteger并注意前导十六进制零。但我认为它很丑,我肯定我错过了一些简单的东西。

我的正式解决方案:

/**
 * Decodes a hexadecimally encoded binary string.
 * <p>
 * Note that this function does <em>NOT</em> convert a hexadecimal number to a
 * binary number.
 *
 * @param hex Hexadecimal representation of data.
 * @return The byte[] representation of the given data.
 * @throws NumberFormatException If the hexadecimal input string is of odd
 * length or invalid hexadecimal string.
 */
public static byte[] hex2bin(String hex) throws NumberFormatException {
    if (hex.length() % 2 > 0) {
        throw new NumberFormatException("Hexadecimal input string must have an even length.");
    }
    byte[] r = new byte[hex.length() / 2];
    for (int i = hex.length(); i > 0;) {
        r[i / 2 - 1] = (byte) (digit(hex.charAt(--i)) | (digit(hex.charAt(--i)) << 4));
    }
    return r;
}

private static int digit(char ch) {
    int r = Character.digit(ch, 16);
    if (r < 0) {
        throw new NumberFormatException("Invalid hexadecimal string: " + ch);
    }
    return r;
}

类似于PHP的hex2bin()函数,但采用Java风格。

例子:

String data = new String(hex2bin("6578616d706c65206865782064617461"));
// data value: "example hex data"

迟到了,但我已经把DaveL上面的答案合并到一个具有反向操作的类中——以防它有所帮助。

public final class HexString {
    private static final char[] digits = "0123456789ABCDEF".toCharArray();

    private HexString() {}

    public static final String fromBytes(final byte[] bytes) {
        final StringBuilder buf = new StringBuilder();
        for (int i = 0; i < bytes.length; i++) {
            buf.append(HexString.digits[(bytes[i] >> 4) & 0x0f]);
            buf.append(HexString.digits[bytes[i] & 0x0f]);
        }
        return buf.toString();
    }

    public static final byte[] toByteArray(final String hexString) {
        if ((hexString.length() % 2) != 0) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Input string must contain an even number of characters");
        }
        final int len = hexString.length();
        final byte[] data = new byte[len / 2];
        for (int i = 0; i < len; i += 2) {
            data[i / 2] = (byte) ((Character.digit(hexString.charAt(i), 16) << 4)
                    + Character.digit(hexString.charAt(i + 1), 16));
        }
        return data;
    }
}

和JUnit测试类:

public class TestHexString {

    @Test
    public void test() {
        String[] tests = {"0FA1056D73", "", "00", "0123456789ABCDEF", "FFFFFFFF"};

        for (int i = 0; i < tests.length; i++) {
            String in = tests[i];
            byte[] bytes = HexString.toByteArray(in);
            String out = HexString.fromBytes(bytes);
            System.out.println(in); //DEBUG
            System.out.println(out); //DEBUG
            Assert.assertEquals(in, out);

        }

    }

}

        r[i / 2 - 1] = (byte) (digit(hex.charAt(--i)) | (digit(hex.charAt(--i)) << 4));

下面是一个实际有效的方法(基于之前几个半正确的答案):

private static byte[] fromHexString(final String encoded) {
    if ((encoded.length() % 2) != 0)
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("Input string must contain an even number of characters");

    final byte result[] = new byte[encoded.length()/2];
    final char enc[] = encoded.toCharArray();
    for (int i = 0; i < enc.length; i += 2) {
        StringBuilder curr = new StringBuilder(2);
        curr.append(enc[i]).append(enc[i + 1]);
        result[i/2] = (byte) Integer.parseInt(curr.toString(), 16);
    }
    return result;
}

我能看到的唯一可能的问题是,如果输入字符串非常长;调用toCharArray()会复制字符串的内部数组。

编辑:哦,顺便说一下,字节在Java中是有符号的,所以您的输入字符串转换为[0,-96,-65]而不是[0,160,191]。但你可能已经知道了。

编辑:正如@mmyers所指出的那样,此方法不适用于包含与高位设置的字节对应的子字符串的输入("80" - "FF")。解释在Bug ID: 6259307字节。parseByte没有像SDK文档中宣传的那样工作。

public static final byte[] fromHexString(final String s) {
    byte[] arr = new byte[s.length()/2];
    for ( int start = 0; start < s.length(); start += 2 )
    {
        String thisByte = s.substring(start, start+2);
        arr[start/2] = Byte.parseByte(thisByte, 16);
    }
    return arr;
}

实际上,我认为BigInteger是很好的解决方案:

new BigInteger("00A0BF", 16).toByteArray();

编辑:正如海报所指出的,前导零不安全。
