byte to char conversion

[pad]

I've written into a random access file using read(buffer) and I'm reading it using read(buffer), where buffer is a byte array. When I tried to convert the read bytes into characters, I'm unable to do the conversion. The system is again showing me bytes. Can anybody suggest me the best way to convert bytes to char

why don't u read all the bytes into an array and create a string from it? from there all the chars are available.

i can't remember if you can cast straight from byte to char...
