This works better, there are probably other neater ways
(again, you will have to introduce your own string)
var testinput = "\u00a5\u0003\u0003\u0008\u0016\u0001\u00ca"
var bytesarray = testinput.getBytes()
logInfo("test1", "rubbish " + bytesarray.toString)
val StringBuilder hexdisplay = new StringBuilder
bytesarray.forEach[b |
var int x = b.intValue.bitwiseAnd(255)
hexdisplay.append(Integer::toHexString(x) + ", ")
]
logInfo("test2", "hex " + hexdisplay)
val StringBuilder decdisplay = new StringBuilder
bytesarray.forEach[b |
var int x = b.intValue.bitwiseAnd(255)
decdisplay.append(Integer::toString(x) + ", ")
]
logInfo("test3", "decimal " + decdisplay)
