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);

        }

    }

}

Bert Regelink提出的准则根本不起作用。 试试下面的方法:

import javax.xml.bind.DatatypeConverter;
import java.io.*;

public class Test
{  
    @Test
    public void testObjectStreams( ) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException
    {     
            ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
            ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(baos);

            String stringTest = "TEST";
            oos.writeObject( stringTest );

            oos.close();
            baos.close();

            byte[] bytes = baos.toByteArray();
            String hexString = DatatypeConverter.printHexBinary( bytes);
            byte[] reconvertedBytes = DatatypeConverter.parseHexBinary(hexString);

            assertArrayEquals( bytes, reconvertedBytes );

            ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(reconvertedBytes);
            ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(bais);

            String readString = (String) ois.readObject();

            assertEquals( stringTest, readString);
        }
    }

这里有另一个版本，它支持奇数长度的字符串，而不诉诸字符串连接。

public static byte[] hexStringToByteArray(String input) {
    int len = input.length();

    if (len == 0) {
        return new byte[] {};
    }

    byte[] data;
    int startIdx;
    if (len % 2 != 0) {
        data = new byte[(len / 2) + 1];
        data[0] = (byte) Character.digit(input.charAt(0), 16);
        startIdx = 1;
    } else {
        data = new byte[len / 2];
        startIdx = 0;
    }

    for (int i = startIdx; i < len; i += 2) {
        data[(i + 1) / 2] = (byte) ((Character.digit(input.charAt(i), 16) << 4)
                + Character.digit(input.charAt(i+1), 16));
    }
    return data;
}

我想我会帮你的。我用一个类似的函数把它拼凑在一起，该函数以字符串形式返回数据:

private static byte[] decode(String encoded) {
    byte result[] = new byte[encoded/2];
    char enc[] = encoded.toUpperCase().toCharArray();
    StringBuffer curr;
    for (int i = 0; i < enc.length; i += 2) {
        curr = new StringBuffer("");
        curr.append(String.valueOf(enc[i]));
        curr.append(String.valueOf(enc[i + 1]));
        result[i] = (byte) Integer.parseInt(curr.toString(), 16);
    }
    return result;
}

在android中，如果你正在使用hex，你可以尝试okio。

简单的用法:

byte[] bytes = ByteString.decodeHex("c000060000").toByteArray();

结果是

[-64, 0, 6, 0, 0]

我一直用的方法是

public static final byte[] fromHexString(final String s) {
    String[] v = s.split(" ");
    byte[] arr = new byte[v.length];
    int i = 0;
    for(String val: v) {
        arr[i++] =  Integer.decode("0x" + val).byteValue();

    }
    return arr;
}

此方法根据空格分隔的十六进制值进行分割，但根据任何其他条件(例如分成两个字符的组)将字符串分割并不困难。
