还有XmlWriter.WriteBinHex（请参见MSDN页面）。如果需要将十六进制字符串放入XML流中，这非常有用。

下面是一个独立的方法来了解它的工作原理：

    public static string ToBinHex(byte[] bytes)
    {
        XmlWriterSettings xmlWriterSettings = new XmlWriterSettings();
        xmlWriterSettings.ConformanceLevel = ConformanceLevel.Fragment;
        xmlWriterSettings.CheckCharacters = false;
        xmlWriterSettings.Encoding = ASCIIEncoding.ASCII;
        MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
        using (XmlWriter xmlWriter = XmlWriter.Create(memoryStream, xmlWriterSettings))
        {
            xmlWriter.WriteBinHex(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
        }
        return Encoding.ASCII.GetString(memoryStream.ToArray());
    }

Waleed Eissa代码的逆函数（十六进制字符串到字节数组）：

    public static byte[] HexToBytes(this string hexString)        
    {
        byte[] b = new byte[hexString.Length / 2];            
        char c;
        for (int i = 0; i < hexString.Length / 2; i++)
        {
            c = hexString[i * 2];
            b[i] = (byte)((c < 0x40 ? c - 0x30 : (c < 0x47 ? c - 0x37 : c - 0x57)) << 4);
            c = hexString[i * 2 + 1];
            b[i] += (byte)(c < 0x40 ? c - 0x30 : (c < 0x47 ? c - 0x37 : c - 0x57));
        }

        return b;
    }

Waleed Eissa功能，支持小写：

    public static string BytesToHex(this byte[] barray, bool toLowerCase = true)
    {
        byte addByte = 0x37;
        if (toLowerCase) addByte = 0x57;
        char[] c = new char[barray.Length * 2];
        byte b;
        for (int i = 0; i < barray.Length; ++i)
        {
            b = ((byte)(barray[i] >> 4));
            c[i * 2] = (char)(b > 9 ? b + addByte : b + 0x30);
            b = ((byte)(barray[i] & 0xF));
            c[i * 2 + 1] = (char)(b > 9 ? b + addByte : b + 0x30);
        }

        return new string(c);
    }

我怀疑这样的速度会使大多数其他测试失败。。。

Public Function BufToHex(ByVal buf() As Byte) As String
    Dim sB As New System.Text.StringBuilder
    For i As Integer = 0 To buf.Length - 1
        sB.Append(buf(i).ToString("x2"))
    Next i
    Return sB.ToString
End Function

这是一篇很棒的帖子。我喜欢瓦利德的解决方案。我还没有通过帕特里奇的测试，但似乎很快。我还需要反向过程，将十六进制字符串转换为字节数组，因此我将其作为Waleed解决方案的反向来编写。不确定它是否比托马拉克的原始解决方案更快。同样，我也没有通过帕特里奇的测试运行相反的过程。

private byte[] HexStringToByteArray(string hexString)
{
    int hexStringLength = hexString.Length;
    byte[] b = new byte[hexStringLength / 2];
    for (int i = 0; i < hexStringLength; i += 2)
    {
        int topChar = (hexString[i] > 0x40 ? hexString[i] - 0x37 : hexString[i] - 0x30) << 4;
        int bottomChar = hexString[i + 1] > 0x40 ? hexString[i + 1] - 0x37 : hexString[i + 1] - 0x30;
        b[i / 2] = Convert.ToByte(topChar + bottomChar);
    }
    return b;
}

多样性的另一种变化：

public static byte[] FromHexString(string src)
{
    if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(src))
        return null;

    int index = src.Length;
    int sz = index / 2;
    if (sz <= 0)
        return null;

    byte[] rc = new byte[sz];

    while (--sz >= 0)
    {
        char lo = src[--index];
        char hi = src[--index];

        rc[sz] = (byte)(
            (
                (hi >= '0' && hi <= '9') ? hi - '0' :
                (hi >= 'a' && hi <= 'f') ? hi - 'a' + 10 :
                (hi >= 'A' && hi <= 'F') ? hi - 'A' + 10 :
                0
            )
            << 4 | 
            (
                (lo >= '0' && lo <= '9') ? lo - '0' :
                (lo >= 'a' && lo <= 'f') ? lo - 'a' + 10 :
                (lo >= 'A' && lo <= 'F') ? lo - 'A' + 10 :
                0
            )
        );
    }

    return rc;          
}

就速度而言，这似乎比这里的任何东西都要好：

  public static string ToHexString(byte[] data) {
    byte b;
    int i, j, k;
    int l = data.Length;
    char[] r = new char[l * 2];
    for (i = 0, j = 0; i < l; ++i) {
      b = data[i];
      k = b >> 4;
      r[j++] = (char)(k > 9 ? k + 0x37 : k + 0x30);
      k = b & 15;
      r[j++] = (char)(k > 9 ? k + 0x37 : k + 0x30);
    }
    return new string(r);
  }
