All Implemented Interfaces:

@NotThreadSafe public final class HexDumper extends OutputStream
Hex Dump Utility.

This class takes binary data and prints it out in a way that humans can read. It's just like the hex dump programs you remembered as a kid. There a column on the left for the address (or offset) in decimal, the middle columns are each digit in hexadecimal, and the column on the right is the ASCII representation where non-printable characters are represented by '.'.

It's easiest to generate a simple String by calling dumpHex(byte[]), or you can stream data with HexDumper(Writer, int, int).

Example output:

  • Constructor Details

    • HexDumper

      public HexDumper(@WillNotClose Writer writer)
      Calls HexDumper(Writer, int, int) with perLine set to 16 and perGroup set to 4.

    • HexDumper

      public HexDumper(@WillNotClose Writer out, @Nonnegative int perLine, @Nonnegative int perGroup)
      Construct a new streaming HexDumper object.

      The output is line-buffered so a single write call is made to out for each line. This is done to avoid system call overhead out is a resource, and reduces the chance of lines being broken by other threads writing to out (or its underlying resource) at the same time.

      This object will not close out. You must close both this object and out, and this object must be closed first.

      Parameters:
      out - is the stream to which the hex dump text is written. It is not closed.
      perLine - determines how many hex characters to show on each line.
      perGroup - how many columns of hex digits should be grouped together. If this value is > 0, an extra space will be inserted after each Nth column for readability. Grouping can be disabled by setting this to 0.

  • Method Details

    • dumpHex

      public static String dumpHex(byte[] data)
      Calls dumpHex(byte[], int, int) with perLine set to 16 and perGroup set to 4.

    • dumpHex

      public static String dumpHex(byte[] data, @Nonnegative int perLine, @Nonnegative int perGroup)
      Convenience static method for generating a hex dump as a String.

      This method adds an additional line to the beginning with the total number of bytes.

      See Also:

    • write

      public void write(int b) throws IOException
      Writes a single byte to the current line buffer, flushing if end of line.
      Specified by:
      write in class OutputStream
      Throws:
      IOException - upon failure to write to upstream writer.
      IllegalStateException - if this object has been closed.

    • flush

      public void flush() throws IOException
      Writes partial line buffer (if any) to upstream Writer.
      Specified by:
      flush in interface Flushable
      Overrides:
      flush in class OutputStream
      Throws:
      IOException - upon failure to write to upstream writer.
      IllegalStateException - if this object has been closed.

    • close

      public void close() throws IOException
      Writes out the final line (if incomplete) and invalidates this object.

      This object must be closed before you close the upstream writer. Please note that this method does not close upstream writer for you.

      If you attempt to write to this object after calling this method, IllegalStateException will be thrown. However, it's safe to call close multiple times, as subsequent calls will be treated as a no-op.

      Specified by:
      close in interface AutoCloseable
      Specified by:
      close in interface Closeable
      Overrides:
      close in class OutputStream
      Throws:
      IOException - upon failure to write to upstream writer.
