How to get characters from string to byte array? [duplicate]

Question

I have a string which contains elements of byte array such as "[B@42b19e58" which I have to convert back into the byte array.

Can someone please suggest me a method to do so?

Here, I don't have to convert a string to byte array. I already have byte array elements in the string, I just have to put them back to the array.

This depends on how you encoded your byte array as a string. — Henry

Use this code

String str= "Convert Java String";
byte[] byteArray = str.getBytes();
