In java you can do this! = )

    int value = 10; //0b1010
    String bits = Integer.toBinaryString(value); //1010
    BitSet bs = new BitSet(bits.length());

Then add the result to the bitset = )

    for (int i = 0; i < bits.length(); i++) {
        if (bits.charAt(i) == '1') {
            bs.set(i);
        } else {
            bs.clear(i);
        }
    }
    System.out.println(bs); //{0, 2} so 0th index and 2nd index are set.

BitSet has a static valueOf(long[]) method which

Returns a new bit set containing all the bits in the given long array.

So an array with one long will have 64 bits, an array with two longs will have 128 bits, etc.

If you only need to get a BitSet from a single int value, use it like so

Integer value = 42;
System.out.println(Integer.toBinaryString(value));
BitSet bitSet = BitSet.valueOf(new long[] { value });
System.out.println(bitSet);

It prints

101010
{1, 3, 5}

In other words, from the right to left in the representation above, the 2nd, 4th, and 6th bit are set.
