Question

In PHP I have an array of bytes that I want to turn into a single variable.

$bytes = array(0x12, 0x8D, 0x9D, 0x40, 0x09, 0x64, 0x5A, 0x6E);

I figured I could create a string like so:

$string = chr(0x12).chr(0x8D)......;

but that seems hacky.

Any suggestions?

Answer 1

$string=implode('',array_map('chr',array(0x8D, 0x9D, 0x40, 0x09, 0x64, 0x5A, 0x6E)));

echo $$string; //given that you also have a variable named whatever the bytecode translates to.
