Hi.

What is the fastest way to convert a memory stream (containing a byte []) to
a string?

Thanks.

bitconverter.tostring(memorystream.toarray)

Thanks Ali.

BitConverter returns a string with hexadecimal pairs (that correspond to
each byte in the array). How do I get a regular string? I am trying to
serialize XML into a string and I want to avoid writing the XML to a file
first. I am using a MemoryStream (I need to use a MemoryStream via
XmlTextWriter in order to change the default encoding) and calling Serialize
(off XmlSerializer) to that stream. I then want to get a string from the
stream return it to the caller.

Thanks!

As Girish Mentioned you can leverage system.encoding classes for that
purpose.

Thanks Ali & Girish!

Just make sure it's ASCII!! Safer would be UTF8.

Thanks Mike! UTF8 also worked and I'll use this to be safe.

Cheers.
