Parse string for unicode characters in C#

Question

I have an input form where someone is allowed to type unicode characters. So it might be something like "Hey \uF32A what's up?". If I get this string it will have a substring of "\uF32A" how do i turn that to the character '\uF32A'?

Answer 1

Use Regular Expression to Unescape as shown below:

var str = @"Hey \uF32A what's up?";    
System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Unescape(str);
