Robert Scholte commented on QDOX-140:
-------------------------------------
The problem seems to be caused by something else. The way java-files are read
doesn't trigger the reader to convert them to chars. A backwardslash in the
uncompiled java-file is just read as a backwardslash.
Here's a document about this stuff

> still need translation.
