将NSData序列化为十六进制字符串的最佳方法

标签: iphone notifications nsdata

我正在寻找一种很好的可可方法来将NSData对象序列化为十六进制字符串。我们的想法是将用于通知的deviceToken序列化,然后再将其发送到我的服务器。

我有以下实现,但我认为必须有一些更短更好的方法来实现它。

+ (NSString*) serializeDeviceToken:(NSData*) deviceToken
{
    NSMutableString *str = [NSMutableString stringWithCapacity:64];
    int length = [deviceToken length];
    char *bytes = malloc(sizeof(char) * length);

    [deviceToken getBytes:bytes length:length];

    for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)
    {
        [str appendFormat:@"%02.2hhX", bytes[i]];
    }
    free(bytes);

    return str;
}

这是我写的一个应用于NSData的类别。它返回表示NSData的十六进制NSString,其中数据可以是任意长度。如果NSData为空,则返回空字符串。

<强>的NSData + Conversion.h

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

@interface NSData (NSData_Conversion)

#pragma mark - String Conversion
- (NSString *)hexadecimalString;

@end

<强>的NSData + Conversion.m

#import "NSData+Conversion.h"

@implementation NSData (NSData_Conversion)

#pragma mark - String Conversion
- (NSString *)hexadecimalString {
    /* Returns hexadecimal string of NSData. Empty string if data is empty.   */

    const unsigned char *dataBuffer = (const unsigned char *)[self bytes];

    if (!dataBuffer)
        return [NSString string];

    NSUInteger          dataLength  = [self length];
    NSMutableString     *hexString  = [NSMutableString stringWithCapacity:(dataLength * 2)];

    for (int i = 0; i < dataLength; ++i)
        [hexString appendString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%02lx", (unsigned long)dataBuffer[i]]];

    return [NSString stringWithString:hexString];
}

@end

用法:

NSData *someData = ...;
NSString *someDataHexadecimalString = [someData hexadecimalString];

这可能比调用[someData description]然后剥离空格,&lt; s和&gt;更好“。剥离字符只是觉得太“hacky”。此外,您永远不知道Apple将来是否会更改NSData -description的格式。

这是一个用于生成十六进制字符串的高度优化的NSData category方法。虽然@Dave Gallagher的答案对于相对较小的尺寸来说足够了,但是对于大量数据,内存和CPU性能会下降。我在iPhone 5上用2MB文件对此进行了分析。时间比较为0.05对12秒。使用此方法可以忽略内存占用,而另一种方法将堆增加到70MB!

- (NSString *) hexString
{
    NSUInteger bytesCount = self.length;
    if (bytesCount) {
        const char *hexChars = "0123456789ABCDEF";
        const unsigned char *dataBuffer = self.bytes;
        char *chars = malloc(sizeof(char) * (bytesCount * 2 + 1));       
        if (chars == NULL) {
            // malloc returns null if attempting to allocate more memory than the system can provide. Thanks Cœur
            [NSException raise:@"NSInternalInconsistencyException" format:@"Failed to allocate more memory" arguments:nil];
            return nil;
        }
        char *s = chars;
        for (unsigned i = 0; i < bytesCount; ++i) {
            *s++ = hexChars[((*dataBuffer & 0xF0) >> 4)];
            *s++ = hexChars[(*dataBuffer & 0x0F)];
            dataBuffer++;
        }
        *s = '\0';
        NSString *hexString = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:chars];
        free(chars);
        return hexString;
    }
    return @"";
}

使用NSData的description属性不应被视为HEX编码字符串的可接受机制。该属性仅供说明,可随时更改。作为一个注释,在iOS之前,NSData描述属性甚至没有以十六进制形式返回它的数据。

很抱歉对解决方案进行了苛刻,但重要的是要充分利用它来序列化它,而不需要支持除了数据序列化以外的其他方式的API。

@implementation NSData (Hex)

- (NSString*)hexString
{
    NSUInteger length = self.length;
    unichar* hexChars = (unichar*)malloc(sizeof(unichar) * (length*2));
    unsigned char* bytes = (unsigned char*)self.bytes;
    for (NSUInteger i = 0; i < length; i++) {
        unichar c = bytes[i] / 16;
        if (c < 10) {
            c += '0';
        } else {
            c += 'A' - 10;
        }
        hexChars[i*2] = c;

        c = bytes[i] % 16;
        if (c < 10) {
            c += '0';
        } else {
            c += 'A' - 10;
        }
        hexChars[i*2+1] = c;
    }
    NSString* retVal = [[NSString alloc] initWithCharactersNoCopy:hexChars length:length*2 freeWhenDone:YES];
    return [retVal autorelease];
}

功能Swift版

一个班轮:

let hexString = UnsafeBufferPointer<UInt8>(start: UnsafePointer(data.bytes),
count: data.length).map { String(format: "%02x", $0) }.joinWithSeparator("")

这是一个可重复使用且自我记录的扩展形式:

extension NSData {
    func base16EncodedString(uppercase uppercase: Bool = false) -> String {
        let buffer = UnsafeBufferPointer<UInt8>(start: UnsafePointer(self.bytes),
                                                count: self.length)
        let hexFormat = uppercase ? "X" : "x"
        let formatString = "%02\(hexFormat)"
        let bytesAsHexStrings = buffer.map {
            String(format: formatString, $0)
        }
        return bytesAsHexStrings.joinWithSeparator("")
    }
}

或者,使用reduce("", combine: +)代替joinWithSeparator("")被同行视为功能主人。

编辑:我将字符串($ 0,基数:16)更改为字符串(格式:“%02x”,$ 0),因为填充零所需的一位数字

答案 6 :(得分:4)

我需要解决这个问题并发现这里的答案非常有用,但我担心性能问题。这些答案大多涉及从NSData批量复制数据,因此我编写了以下内容以低开销进行转换:

@interface NSData (HexString)
@end

@implementation NSData (HexString)

- (NSString *)hexString {
    NSMutableString *string = [NSMutableString stringWithCapacity:self.length * 3];
    [self enumerateByteRangesUsingBlock:^(const void *bytes, NSRange byteRange, BOOL *stop){
        for (NSUInteger offset = 0; offset < byteRange.length; ++offset) {
            uint8_t byte = ((const uint8_t *)bytes)[offset];
            if (string.length == 0)
                [string appendFormat:@"%02X", byte];
            else
                [string appendFormat:@" %02X", byte];
        }
    }];
    return string;
}

这会在字符串中为整个结果预先分配空间,并避免使用enumerateByteRangesUsingBlock复制NSData内容。将X更改为格式字符串中的x将使用小写十六进制数字。如果您不希望在字节之间使用分隔符,则可以减少语句

if (string.length == 0)
    [string appendFormat:@"%02X", byte];
else
    [string appendFormat:@" %02X", byte];

直到

[string appendFormat:@"%02X", byte];

我需要一个适用于可变长度字符串的答案,所以这就是我所做的:

{
    NSString *result = [[data description] stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@" " withString:@""];
    result = [result substringWithRange:NSMakeRange(1, [result length] - 2)];
    return result;
}

非常适合作为NSString类的扩展。

                str.append(String(format:"%02x",byte))
            }
        }
        return str
    }

    public var hexadecimalString : String {

    }
    return [str autorelease];

Swift + Property。

我更喜欢将十六进制表示作为属性(与bytesdescription属性相同):

extension NSData {

    var hexString: String {

        let buffer = UnsafeBufferPointer<UInt8>(start: UnsafePointer(self.bytes), count: self.length)
        return buffer.map { String(format: "%02x", $0) }.joinWithSeparator("")
    }

    var heXString: String {

        let buffer = UnsafeBufferPointer<UInt8>(start: UnsafePointer(self.bytes), count: self.length)
        return buffer.map { String(format: "%02X", $0) }.joinWithSeparator("")
    }
}
