input of unicode from TextArea

Posted by Thayer Watkins on October 01, 2001 at 7:59 PM

I want to input unicode from a TextArea as \udddd but getText
interprets \udddd as a 6 element string. I have tried recreating
the code from this string by getChars and creating a new string
but it always comes out as a 6 element string rather than a
1 element unicode string. There is no problem with the internal
creation of a unicode character by assignment in the Java program.
