i want to use UDP to send packet with content like 0x11AACC, "11AACC" is fetched from database, so it's string.
I don't know how to change it to hex value 11AACC, if I use []byte("11AACC")to convert it, it'll change to 6 bytes content.
thanks.
You can use DecodeString
from encoding/hex
package to convert your hex string to []byte.
example: https://play.golang.org/p/t200M1LqJQ3
package main
import (
"encoding/hex"
"fmt"
"log"
)
func main() {
s := "11AACC"
h, err := hex.DecodeString(s)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Println(h)
}
