How To Convert String To Byte In Java?

This tutorial highlights the simple example to demonstrates how to convert a string object to the byte stream. We can simply use the getBytes() method in the string object to convert the string to bytes array. Lets look at the example program.

[code lang=”java”]
package javabeat.net.core;

public class StringToByteExample {
public static void main(String[] argv) {

String str = "JavaBeat Website";
byte[] bytes = str.getBytes();

System.out.println("String Value : " + str);
System.out.println("String [Byte Format] : " + bytes);
System.out.println("—–Printing Bytes Array——-");
for (int i=0;i<bytes.length;i++){
System.out.println(bytes[i]);
}

}
}
[/code]

Output

[code]
String Value : JavaBeat Website
String [Byte Format] : [B@15f5897
—–Printing Bytes Array——-
