Java: Converting UTF 8 to String
- by kujawk
When I run the following program:
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception
{
byte str[] = {(byte)0xEC, (byte)0x96, (byte)0xB4};
String s = new String(str, "UTF-8");
}
on Linux and inspect the value of s in jdb, I correctly get:
s = "ì–´"
on Windows, I incorrectly get:
s = "?"
My byte sequence is a valid UTF-8 character in Korean, why would it be producing two very different results?
