HEX
Syntax
HEX(N_or_S)
Description
If N_or_S
is a number, returns a string representation of the hexadecimal
value of N
, where N
is a longlong
(BIGINT
) number. This is equivalent to CONV(N,10,16)
.
If N_or_S
is a string, returns a hexadecimal string representation of
N_or_S
where each byte of each character in N_or_S
is converted to two hexadecimal
digits. If N_or_S
is NULL, returns NULL. The inverse of this operation is performed by the UNHEX()
function.
MariaDB starting with 10.5.0
HEX() with an INET6 argument returns a hexadecimal representation of the underlying 16-byte binary string.
Examples
SELECT HEX(255); +----------+ | HEX(255) | +----------+ | FF | +----------+ SELECT 0x4D617269614442; +------------------+ | 0x4D617269614442 | +------------------+ | MariaDB | +------------------+ SELECT HEX('MariaDB'); +----------------+ | HEX('MariaDB') | +----------------+ | 4D617269614442 | +----------------+
From MariaDB 10.5.0:
SELECT HEX(CAST('2001:db8::ff00:42:8329' AS INET6)); +----------------------------------------------+ | HEX(CAST('2001:db8::ff00:42:8329' AS INET6)) | +----------------------------------------------+ | 20010DB8000000000000FF0000428329 | +----------------------------------------------+
