Unicode character

[Angela Jessi]

Hi,
I am having string from server:
\u30CF\u30ED\u30FC\u30EA\u30C3\u30AF
My Client programs reads this as normal ascii characters. I have to display kanji characters.
How Can I convert this string to unicode and kanji characters?
Please let me know
Thanks
angela

Angela,
It depends of the encoding your JVM is using.
From API:
"The default encoding is determined during virtual-machine startup and typically
depends upon the locale and encoding being used by the underlying operating system."
In some encoding, this sequence does not map to what you need.
This example may help you when trying to find the encoding you look for. After, you
can change this and convert using your encoding.

import java.io.*;
public class UnicodeEx {
    public static void main(String args[]){
       try {
           OutputStreamWriter os = new OutputStreamWriter(System.out, "ISO-8859-1");
   os.write(os.getEncoding());
   os.write("\u30CF\u30ED\u30FC\u30EA\u30C3\u30AF");
   os.write("\u0057\u0059"); //map to WY
   os.flush();
       }catch(Exception e){};
    }
}

Let me know if you have any problem.
Hope it helps,
Adrian
