How to convert list array to Hexstring in c#?

Question

I have a list array named "list". I need to convert this list into a hex string. I tried the code below but it hasn't worked.

    var  list = objIPLayer.Udp.Payload.ToList();
    string hex = BitConverter.ToString(list);

I got this error:

The best overloaded method match for 'System.BitConverter.ToString(byte[])' has some invalid arguments** when executed the following code.
string hex = BitConverter.ToString(list);

Is there any method to do this?

I got this error **The best overloaded method match for 'System.BitConverter.ToString(byte[])' has some invalid arguments** when executed the following code. **string hex = BitConverter.ToString(list);** — Mask, Jan 12 '13 at 06:35

BitConverter.ToString(byte[]) Expects byte [] not IEnumerable<byte> or List<byte>.

Try following

var  list = objIPLayer.Udp.Payload.ToArray();
string hex = BitConverter.ToString(list);

Convert the list to an array first:

string hex = BitConverter.ToString(list.ToArray());
