I've got a character stream that I get from a HTTP GET and store it in a string.
The retrieve string has encoding w/ unicode escape codes (e.g. ABC\u0028DEF etc) When I take that string and display in a textView - the \u codes are displayed as is - not translated to their equivalent ascii. Now if I take the same string and assign it directly to a string - as opposed to getting from an HTTP GET, the same textView object translates the unicode escape codes and displays it correctly. String retval = HttpClient.get( "https://www.mydomain.com"; ); textView.setText(retval); // fails String retval = "ABC\u0027DEF; textView.setText(retval); // works When I print both the retvals - they look similar - both have \u0028 I know this is an encoding issue somewhere. When I do the HTTP GET - I believe i'm doing it correctly in = new java.io.BufferedReader( new java.io.InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream(), "UTF-8") ); Help! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
