Hello... Please do help... In knew 0x00FF is HEX but may I know how is
decimal or other systems expressed?

StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
for( int i=0; i<bytes.length; i++ )
{
byte b = bytes[ i ];
sb.append( ( int )( 0x00FF & b ) ); ==> PROBLEM!!!
if( i+1 <bytes.length )
{
sb.append( "-" );
}
}
Please help... Thanks...

If you google for "java number literals" you find web page such as this:

To express decimal numbers, just write the number directly:
int value = 255; // decimal value equal to 0xFF (aka 0x00FF)

If Alex's reply didn't make sense, then try explaining what exactly you
mean by "==> PROBLEM!!!". The word 'problem' is not very descriptive.
What did you want to happen? What's happening instead?

I think you want a hex string.

the & automatically promotes to int so (int) does nothing.

Then you want to go back to a String, a HEX string rather than the
default decimal one.
