I am writing a simple ftp client with c#.
I am not pro in c#. Is there any way to convert string to byte[] and write it to the socket?
for example for introducing username this is the socket content:
5553455220736f726f7573680d0a
and ASCII equivalent is:
USER soroush
I want a method to convert string. Something like this:
public byte[] getByte(string str)
{
byte[] ret;
//some code here
return ret;
}
Try
byte[] array = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(input);
// C# to convert a string to a byte array.
public static byte[] StrToByteArray(string str)
{
Encoding encoding = Encoding.UTF8; //or below line
//System.Text.UTF8Encoding encoding=new System.Text.UTF8Encoding();
return encoding.GetBytes(str);
}
and
// C# to convert a byte array to a string.
byte [] dBytes = ...
string str;
Encoding enc = Encoding.UTF8; //or below line
//System.Text.UTF8Encoding enc = new System.Text.UTF8Encoding();
str = enc.GetString(dBytes);
Encoding.UTF8?
Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(str);? You shouldn't need to copy the encoding to another variable.
