Method Detail

hexEncode

public static java.lang.String hexEncode(java.lang.String s)

Converts a string into its hexadecimal notation.

hexEncode

public static java.lang.String hexEncode(byte[] s)

Converts a byte array into its hexadecimal notation.

hexEncode

public static java.lang.String hexEncode(byte[] s,
                                         int offset,
                                         int length)

Converts a part of a byte array into its hexadecimal notation.

hexEncode

public static java.lang.String hexEncode(byte b)

Converts a single byte into its hexadecimal notation.

hexEncode

public static java.lang.String hexEncode(short s)

Converts a short value (16-bit) into its hexadecimal notation.

hexEncode

public static java.lang.String hexEncode(int i)

Converts an int value (32-bit) into its hexadecimal notation.

hexEncode

public static java.lang.String hexEncode(long l)

Converts a long value (64-bit) into its hexadecimal notation.

hexEncode

public static java.lang.String hexEncode(ClassID classID)

Converts a class ID into its hexadecimal notation.

hexDecode

public static byte[] hexDecode(java.lang.String s)

Decodes the hexadecimal representation of a sequence of bytes into a byte array. Each character in the string represents a nibble (half byte) and must be one of the characters '0'-'9', 'A'-'F' or 'a'-'f'.

Parameters:

s - The string to be decoded

Returns:

The bytes

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the string does not contain a valid representation of a byte sequence.

decodeNibble

protected static byte decodeNibble(char c)

Decodes a nibble.

Parameters:

c - A character in the range '0'-'9' or 'A'-'F'. Lower case is not supported here.

Returns:

The decoded nibble in the range 0-15

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if c is not a permitted character

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)
                 throws java.io.IOException

For testing.

Throws:

java.io.IOException
