String to Byte Array Conversion

[M J Jaya Chitra]

I want to convert a string to byte array as follows byte[] b = Convert.FromBase64String(s); it is giving the following error: Invalid length for a Base-64 char array. can any one give me a suggestion to solve this.

I guess you could use the Encoding class (System.Text). Encoding encoding = Encoding.UTF8; byte[] b = encoding.GetBytes(s); But you have to use the right encoding. Hope this helps.

For Conversion of String to Byte Array go like this, public static byte[] StrToByteArray(string str) { System.Text.ASCIIEncoding encoding=new System.Text.ASCIIEncoding(); return encoding.GetBytes(str); } Don't go with Base 64 because it is of invalid length. Because of an unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Or simply: byte[] data = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(str);
