I am having a String
s = M\\c3\\a4nager
I want to replace \\\\c3\\\\a4
with its equivalent Latin character ä
So the String should be
s = Mänager
I searched a lot how to do it in java please help me with the same I want to handle all such UTF-8 characters in my code.
To unescape the LDAP string you could use following snippet
// import javax.naming.ldap.Rdn;
String escapedValue = "M\\c3\\a4nager";
Object unescapedValue = Rdn.unescapeValue(escapedValue);
System.out.println("escapedValue = " + escapedValue);
System.out.println("unescapedValue = " + unescapedValue);
output
escapedValue = M\c3\a4nager
unescapedValue = Mänager
unescapedValue
contains the String as UTF-8. If you need another encoding you need to handle it properly.
Simple example to show the difference in bytes for different encodings.
byte[] latinBytes = ((String)unescapedValue).getBytes(StandardCharsets.ISO_8859_1);
byte[] utf8Bytes = ((String)unescapedValue).getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
System.out.println("latin1: " + Arrays.toString(latinBytes));
System.out.println("utf8 : " + Arrays.toString(utf8Bytes));
output
latin1: [77, -28, 110, 97, 103, 101, 114]
utf8 : [77, -61, -92, 110, 97, 103, 101, 114]
