java mac地址转换,将字符串Mac地址转换为十六进制

I am trying to convert a string macaddress to hex value. I got a C# code which does the same thing but when I use the java code it gives me negative values. as in the C# code returns signed integer but how do i do the same in Java

following is part of my code

Integer hex = Integer.parseInt(MacAddress.subString(0,2), 16 );

MacAddress[0] = hex.byteValue();

i get something like 148 on the c# code and java returns -148 how can I sort this out thanks

UPDATE

and I just realised that my c# code returns a value of 214 to "D6" a part of the macaddress and the java code returns -42 which is strange

解决方案

String MacAddress="D6";

Integer hex = Integer.parseInt(MacAddress.substring(0,2), 16 );

byte byteArray=(byte) hex.intValue();

System.out.println(hex+"|"+hex.byteValue()+"|"+byteArray[0]+"|"+(int)(byteArray[0]&(0xff)));

byteValue() will give you your byte in signed format.You can store this in your byte array without any worries,just take care of conversion into unsigned value before using it.

If you dont want this conversion from signed to unsigned Make your MacAddress as char[].

char are by default considered as unsigned.
