Creating an array of 40 bytes

[Wimnat]

Hi,

I would like to send a datagram packet containing two parts of data totaling 40 bytes long.

There are two pieces of data that will be read from the command line.

The first is a name (30 bytes) and the second is a number (10 bytes).

I thought about:

byte [] name = args[0].getBytes();
byte [] number = args[1].getBytes();

and then concating the arrays but i wondered if there was a way to put both pieces of data in one array straight away.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Yes, here's my idea :smile: :

byte[] name = args[0].getBytes();
byte[] number = args[1].getBytes();

byte[] nameNumber = new byte[name.length + number.length];

System.arraycopy(name, 0, nameNumber, 0, name.length);
System.arraycopy(number, 0, nameNumber, name.length, number.length);

// and now the nameNumber will contain name and number respectively.
