java code to convert binary to text

[bryanvieta]

hello all,

my client wants me to add a binary to text conversion on my app. I am not an experience developer and I was really bad at this kind of number conversions in my college. Is there any code to convert binary to text in java? any reference to this conversion will be appreciated.?

With java, i expect the code would be a bit lengthy. Can you use Javascript in your app?

[bryanvieta]

i think using js is possible, i really appreciate it!

Javascript:

const password = "TestPw";

password
    .split('') 
    .map(letter => letter.charCodeAt() 
                     .toString(2) 
    ) 
    .join(' ');

Java:(I copied this code, I'm not sure about this)

public static String toText(String info)throws UnsupportedEncodingException{
        byte[] encoded = info.getBytes();
        String text = new String(encoded, "UTF-8");
        System.out.println("print: "+text);
        return text;
    }

i used parseInt in that java code and it is working fine only for maximum of sixteen characters. for example, if i insert more then sixteen characters then this tool does return the correct ans.

Biginteger or bignumber might work well. They are using it and when you enter more then 16 characters, the tool is returning correct answer.
