Malformed byte sequence: Invalid byte 2 of 3-byte UTF-8 sequence

Malformed byte sequence: Invalid byte 2 of 3-byte UTF-8 sequence

Solution:
Use the UTF-8 encoding.

Possible Errors:
1.Might be you are using default-encoding while forming a string...

How to add lessthan or greaterThan characters in XSLT



using CDATA we can transform any character--
like this below examples:


<![CDATA[<]]>
<![CDATA[>]]>
<![CDATA[</]]>
<![CDATA[write anything here]]>



Fetch MAC address of the Machine


import java.net.InetAddress;
import java.net.NetworkInterface;

public class MacAddress
{
   
   
    private String getMacAddress()

                NetworkInterface ni = NetworkInterface.getByInetAddress(address);
                if (ni != null) {
                    byte[] mac = ni.getHardwareAddress();

                         * Extract each array of mac address and convert it to hexa with the
                         * following format 08-00-27-DC-4A-9E.
                         */
                        for (int i = 0; i < mac.length; i++) {
                             macAddress.append(String.format("%02X%s", mac[i], (i < mac.length - 1) ? "-" : ""));
                        }
                       
                       
                     
                       
                       
                    } else {
                        System.out.println("Address doesn't exist or is not accessible.");
                    }
                } else {
                    System.out.println("Network Interface for the specified address is not found.");
                }
            } catch (UnknownHostException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            } catch (SocketException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
       

          return macAddress.toString();
    }
   

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
       
        MacAddress address=new MacAddress();
        System.out.println(address.getMacAddress());
       
       
       
       
    }
}

Fo my system output is like this:
Output:
