RE: Converting String to Byte and back & David Carl (0 replies, 0 views) (2000-May-29) You could change each character into a number (use a byte - 0 to 255) and save each number, the numbers could be the letters character code, or a number from an encryption algorithm that you could create. Before you write your list of numbers (1 string) you'll have to write a byte for the length of the string. Then when reading just read the length descriptor and loop through the next X bytes reading each number and converting it back into a letter, then add it to a variable defined as string.
Hope this is easy enough to understand, if there are any easy methods then please post them because I'll be interested, but this is the method I use. |
