Android PublicKey to string

Question

I am trying to convert PublicKey to String but I don't know how to do it properly. Following code doesn't give me correct key, so how convert it?

byte[] publicKeyBytes = userKeys.getPublic().getEncoded(); String pKstring = new String(publicKeyBytes);

I find out solution, below code is correct:

byte[] publicKeyBytes = Base64.encode(userKeys.getPublic().getEncoded(),0); String pubKey = new String(publicKeyBytes);

You should use Base64.DEFAULT instead of 0, even the result is same.
