追加到JTextArea不会在'\\ n'上创建换行符

Question

I'm loading string resources from a text file (so as to not have to rebuild if I need to change them) which when appended to the JTextArea displays as "Some sentence,\\n on the same line."

When I hard code the exact same String, it appends fine.
Where could this be going wrong?

Answer 1

What does your text file look like? If "\\n" is in the text file it's probably copied literally, ie it's not treated as an escape sequence.

EDIT: You could try reading the text file as a property file and automatically have eg \\n parsed a newline.

Properties p = new Properties();
InputStream fileStream = new FileInputStream("myfile.txt");
p.load(fileStream);    
String value = p.getProperty(key);

Answer 2

In the text file do this...

"1st_Half_of_String" +"\\n"+ "2nd_Half_of_String"
