How to combine unicode characters?

Question

Say I have a character "a" which I need to combine with a symbol ( ̌ ) which I have in form of a hex value "030c".

What do you think would be the best way to combine them?

PS Thanks, "a\̌" does give â in logcat, but on android itself, it just shows a blank square. Is there a way to fix it without having the users to install additional fonts?

Answer 1

"a\u030c" or "\u01ce", the latter being the a-caron ǎ.

Answer 2

如果您的意思是字符串文字，那么

String str = "a\u030c";

Answer 3

You should not hard-code your own mapping tables.
