What is the Java equivalent for formatting of the following string?

Question

I am porting c# code to Java and is having troubles with conversion of the following code so that the string format being written to the console is exactly the same. What is the java equivalent for the following c# code?

byte b = 0xFF; Console.Write("{0,04:X2}", b);

Could you edit the question to include what that C# code would emit? — Adam Paynter

@Adam Paynter: It outputs [space][space]FF, where spaces are padding. — BoltClock

Try this:

byte b = (byte) 0xFF; System.out.printf("%4X", b);

Output:

FF

You need to type-cast the assignment value i.e. byte b = (byte)0xFF; looks to work. to print it into console, simply use System.out.printf("%X", b);

I don't think this answers his question. He is trying to format that byte.
