Example of DatatypeConverter in Java
November 14, 2023
DatatypeConverter class of the package javax.xml.bind can do all to convert xml schema data type to Java data type. DatatypeConverter has print and parse methods. print method encodes the data into lexical representation of xsd. And parse method can decode the lexical representation to string.
DatatypeConverterTest.java
package com.concretepage;
import java.util.Calendar;
import javax.xml.bind.DatatypeConverter;
public class DatatypeConverterTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Testing DatatypeConverter.printBase64Binary
String s1 = "Testing DatatypeConverter.printBase64Binary";
String encodeds1 = DatatypeConverter.printBase64Binary(s1.getBytes());
System.out.println(encodeds1);
byte[] decodeds1= DatatypeConverter.parseBase64Binary(encodeds1);
System.out.println(new String(decodeds1));
//Testing DatatypeConverter.printHexBinary
String s2 = "Testing DatatypeConverter.printHexBinary";
String encodeds2 = DatatypeConverter.printHexBinary(s2.getBytes());
System.out.println(encodeds2);
byte[] decodeds2= DatatypeConverter.parseHexBinary(encodeds2);
System.out.println(new String(decodeds2));
//Lexical representation of date time
System.out.println(DatatypeConverter.printDateTime(Calendar.getInstance()));
}
}
