Hi,

I don't think this is performance sensitive and less code is better.

Use java.lang.Character.digit(ch, 16) to convert the char to an int.

Hi,

I don't know if performance is an issue. But if it is, I think it world
make sense to use a precompute array. And replace

private static int hexToBinary(char ch) {
     if ('0' <= ch && ch <= '9') {
         return ch - '0';
     }
     if ('A' <= ch && ch <= 'F') {
         return ch - 'A' + 10;
     }
     if ('a' <= ch && ch <= 'f') {
         return ch - 'a' + 10;
     }
     return -1;
}

with

private static int hexToBinary(char ch) {
     return ch <= 'f' ? staticPrecomputedArray[ch] : -1;
}

where int[] staticPrecomputedArray is computed in a static initializer
block.

Hello,

Please review this proposal for a new API to conveniently generate and
display binary data using hexadecimal string representation.
It supports both bulk and stream operations and it can also generate the
well-known hexdump format [1].

This latest revision addresses review comments provided earlier.
These include adding methods to support for data supplied in a
ByteBuffer, exposing the default formatter implementation as a public
static and dropping the superfluous 'Hex' term from several method names.

Thanks
