Convert large hex string to decimal string

问题

I need to convert a large (too large for the built-in data types) hex string to a string with it's decimal representation. For example:

std::string sHex = "07AA17C660F3DD1D2A1B48F1B746C148";
std::string sDec; // should end up with: "10187768649047767717933300899576725832"

I'm currently using the c++ BigInt Class which offers a very easy way to achieve this (but is GPL only):

BigInt::Vin vbiTemp(sHex, 16);
sDec = vbiTemp.toStrDec();

Is there simple way to do this conversion without a 3rd party arithmetic library? Or can you recommend a free (non-GPL) alternative with similar simplicity (efficiency is irrelevant)?

回答1:

Ok, here is a generic base converter class. I wrote the original implementation in C#, and converted this now to C++. It's .NET origins may still shine through. Feel free to use it as you see fit.

You could use it like this:

const BaseConverter& hex2dec = BaseConverter::HexToDecimalConverter();
std::cout << hex2dec.Convert("07AA17C660F3DD1D2A1B48F1B746C148");

The output will be:

10187768649047767717933300899576725832

The class isn't limited to hex digits, but will happily translate between any base, using any base digit encoding.

API

BaseConverter::BaseConverter(const std::string& sourceBaseSet, const std::string& targetBaseSet);

Constructs a new BaseConverter instance. The class translates between numbers represented in a source number base to a target number base.

The constructor takes two string arguments to specify the symbols to be used for the source and target number bases. The first character in the string has value 0, the 2nd has value 1, and so on. Example: the symbols for an octal number base are typically "01234567", and for hexadecimal "0123456789ABCDEF". Any printable ASCII character may be used for a symbol, so you could eg. use "OI" (instead of "01") for a binary system.

Note: the base symbols are case sensitive, so the symbols "0123456789abcdef" will not decode hexadecimal numbers using upper-case characters.
std::string BaseConverter::Convert(std::string value) const;
std::string BaseConverter::Convert(const std::string& value, size_t minDigits) const;

Converts number value in the source number base into the target number base and returns the result. The 2nd overload takes an additional parameter minDigits to specify the minimum number of digits in the result. The returned value will be padded by prepending zero or more symbols having value 0 in the target number base.
std::string BaseConverter::FromDecimal(unsigned int value) const;
std::string BaseConverter::FromDecimal(unsigned int value, size_t minDigits) const;

Converts an unsigned int decimal number to the target number base.
unsigned int BaseConverter::ToDecimal(std::string value) const;

Converts a number in the source number system to a decimal unsigned int. Note: the result will be wrong if the decimal value of the number in the source base system exceeds UINT_MAX.
static const BaseConverter& BaseConverter::DecimalToBinaryConverter();
static const BaseConverter& BaseConverter::BinaryToDecimalConverter();
static const BaseConverter& BaseConverter::DecimalToHexConverter();
static const BaseConverter& BaseConverter::HexToDecimalConverter();

Convenience functions returning instances of BaseConverter suitable to convert between common number bases. Note: upper-case characters A - F are used for the hexadecimal number base.

You can use this function to convert a Hex char to a decimal char:

void Hex2Char(const char* szHex, unsigned char& rch)
{
    rch = 0;
    for(int i=0; i<2; i++)
    {
        if(*(szHex + i) >='0' && *(szHex + i) <= '9')
            rch = (rch << 4) + (*(szHex + i) - '0');
        else if(*(szHex + i) >='A' && *(szHex + i) <= 'F')
            rch = (rch << 4) + (*(szHex + i) - 'A' + 10);
        else
            break;
    }
}

than you can use that to convert a string:

void HexStrToCharStr(const char* hexStr, unsigned char* decStr, int n)
{
    unsigned char d_ch;
    for(int i=0; i<n; i++)
    {
        Hex2Char(hexStr+2*i, d_ch);
        decStr[i] = d_ch;
    }
}
