Is there any way to get the size in bytes of a string in Java?

Question

I need the size in bytes of each line in a file, so I can get a percentage of the file read. I already got the size of the file with file.length(), but how do I get

Answer 1

Consider you have a string variable called hello_str

final String hello_str = "Hello World";

 //Check Character length
 hello_str.length() //output will be 11
 // Check encoded sizes
 final byte[] utf8Bytes = hello_str.getBytes("UTF-8");
 utf8Bytes.length  //output will be 11

 final byte[] utf16Bytes= hello_str.getBytes("UTF-16");
 utf16Bytes.length // output will be "24"

  final byte[] utf32Bytes = hello_str.getBytes("UTF-32");
  utf32Bytes.length // output will be "44"
