Converting String to byte array

[kobus_etime_co_za]

Hi there,

Is there a way to convert a String to a byte array? See example below.

FROM:
String _salt = "itsmysecret";

TO:
byte[] _bSalt = {'i', 't', 's', 'm', 'y', 's', 'e', 'c', 'r', 'e', 't'};

It will be used to encrypt and decrypt passwords. Each password have it's own salt value.

You could always have a look in the API.
