Method Detail

getHexCharSet

public static final org.apache.commons.lang3.CharSet getHexCharSet()

getHexRanges

public static final String[] getHexRanges()

toString

protected static final String toString(String[] tokens)

toHexString

public static String toHexString(String string,
                 String encoding)
                          throws UnsupportedEncodingException

Convert string into a byte[] using the specified encoding, then convert each byte into its 2 digit hexadecimal form.

Throws:

UnsupportedEncodingException

toHexString

public static String toHexString(byte[] bytes)

Convert each byte into its 2 digit hexadecimal form.

isHex

public static final boolean isHex(char... chars)

Return true if every character is valid hex 0-9, a-f, or A-F

getBytesFromHexString

public static final byte[] getBytesFromHexString(String hex)

Given a string in strictly hex format, return the corresponding byte[]. strictly hex in the context of this method means that the string:
1 - Contains only the characters a-f, A-F, and 0-9
2 - Its length is an even number.

toStringFromHex

public static final String toStringFromHex(String hex,
                     String encoding)
                                    throws UnsupportedEncodingException

Given a string in strictly hex format and the encoding that was used to produce the hex, convert it back to a Java String. strictly hex in the context of this method means that the string:
1 - Contains only the characters a-f, A-F, and 0-9
2 - Its length is an even number.

Throws:

UnsupportedEncodingException
