Unicode code string

Question

I want to create a string that will contain unicode code, but won't convert it on use.

String s = new String("\u010C");
System.out.println(s);

I want this to be output:

\u010C

instead of this:

Č

I want string to actually contain that set of six characters.

Answer 1

Keppil’s answer is obviously the correct one. To display the 4-digit hex number for a given character, you can also do:

System.out.println(String.format("\\u%04x", (int)'Č'));

Answer 2

If you want the output to be

\u010C

You need to escape your backslash:

String s = new String("\\u010C");
System.out.println(s);
