Hi All.
Please help me resolve this issue.
Value of \u00E6 is æ ( Multibyte Character ).
But from the value is comming from client browser like String reportFileName = "/Users/admin/Reports/Japanese\\u00E6";

You're using two slashes. The first slash escapes the second slash, turning it into a slash character instead of an escape character.
If you want to escape the unicode value, use a single slash before the u.
System.out.println("\u00E6");

Re: Need to print Multibyte character.
Hi Kevin,
Thanks for your reply, input value /Users/admin/Reports/Japanese\\u00E6, is coming from client ( front end). And Java is parsing value as /Users/admin/Reports/Japanese\u00E6 instead of /Users/admin/Reports/Japaneseæ . I have tried split string into char array then reform it in many ways.. but still I am not able form multibyte character.
Please help me
Thanks

Re: Need to print Multibyte character.
Java is parsing it correctly. A single \ escapes a character. So two slashes results in the first \ escaping the second \, which creates a plain-old slash character. Anything following it will be treated as a normal character instead of being escaped.
You're either going to have to parse the text to remove the second slash (which has its own complications, such as what should happen when the user really does want two slashes), or change the frontend to only send a single slash like it should.
