How do you convert a byte array to a hexadecimal string, and vice versa?
如何将字节数组转换为十六进制字符串，反之亦然？
Either:
public static string ByteArrayToString(byte[] ba)
{
StringBuilder hex = new StringBuilder(ba.Length * 2);
foreach (byte b in ba)
hex.AppendFormat("{0:x2}", b);
return hex.ToString();
}
or:
public static string ByteArrayToString(byte[] ba)
{
return BitConverter.ToString(ba).Replace("-","");
}
There are even more variants of doing it, for example here.
The reverse conversion would go like this:
public static byte[] StringToByteArray(String hex)
{
int NumberChars = hex.Length;
byte[] bytes = new byte[NumberChars / 2];
for (int i = 0; i < NumberChars; i += 2)
bytes[i / 2] = Convert.ToByte(hex.Substring(i, 2), 16);
return bytes;
}
Using Substring is the best option in combination with Convert.ToByte . See this answer for more information. If you need better performance, you must avoid Convert.ToByte before you can drop SubString .
Performance Analysis
Note: new leader as of 2015-08-20.
I ran each of the various conversion methods through some crude Stopwatch performance testing, a run with a random sentence (n=61, 1000 iterations) and a run with a Project Gutenburg text (n=1,238,957, 150 iterations). Here are the results, roughly from fastest to slowest. All measurements are in ticks (10,000 ticks = 1 ms) and all relative notes are compared to the [slowest] StringBuilder implementation. For the code used, see below or the test framework repo where I now maintain the code for running this.
Disclaimer
WARNING: Do not rely on these stats for anything concrete; they are simply a sample run of sample data. If you really need top-notch performance, please test these methods in an environment representative of your production needs with data representative of what you will use.
Results
unsafe (via CodesInChaos) (added to test repo by airbreather) BitConverter (via Tomalak) {SoapHexBinary}.ToString (via Mykroft) {byte}.ToString("X2") (using foreach ) (derived from Will Dean's answer) {byte}.ToString("X2") (using {IEnumerable}.Aggregate , requires System.Linq) (via Mark) Array.ConvertAll (using string.Join ) (via Will Dean) Array.ConvertAll (using string.Concat , requires .NET 4.0) (via Will Dean) {StringBuilder}.AppendFormat (using foreach ) (via Tomalak) {StringBuilder}.AppendFormat (using {IEnumerable}.Aggregate , requires System.Linq) (derived from Tomalak's answer) Lookup tables have taken the lead over byte manipulation. Basically, there is some form of precomputing what any given nibble or byte will be in hex. Then, as you rip through the data, you simply look up the next portion to see what hex string it would be. That value is then added to the resulting string output in some fashion. For a long time byte manipulation, potentially harder to read by some developers, was the top-performing approach.
Your best bet is still going to be finding some representative data and trying it out in a production-like environment. If you have different memory constraints, you may prefer a method with fewer allocations to one that would be faster but consume more memory.

Feel free to play with the testing code I used. A version is included here but feel free to clone the repo and add your own methods. Please submit a pull request if you find anything interesting or want to help improve the testing framework it uses.

Update (2010-01-13)
Added Waleed's answer to analysis. Quite fast.
Update (2011-10-05)
Added string.Concat Array.ConvertAll variant for completeness (requires .NET 4.0). On par with string.Join version.
Update (2012-02-05)
Test repo includes more variants such as StringBuilder.Append(b.ToString("X2")) . None upset the results any. foreach is faster than {IEnumerable}.Aggregate , for instance, but BitConverter still wins.
Update (2012-04-03)
Added Mykroft's SoapHexBinary answer to analysis, which took over third place.
Update (2013-01-15)
Added CodesInChaos's byte manipulation answer, which took over first place (by a large margin on large blocks of text).
Update (2013-05-23)
Added Nathan Moinvaziri's lookup answer and the variant from Brian Lambert's blog. Both rather fast, but not taking the lead on the test machine I used (AMD Phenom 9750).
Update (2014-07-31)
Added @CodesInChaos's new byte-based lookup answer. It appears to have taken the lead on both the sentence tests and the full-text tests.
Update (2015-08-20)
Added airbreather's optimizations and unsafe variant to this answer's repo. If you want to play in the unsafe game, you can get some huge performance gains over any of the prior top winners on both short strings and large texts.
有一个叫做SoapHexBinary的类，它完全符合你的要求。
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();
}
