Encode String to UTF-8

Question

I have a String with a \"ñ\" character and I have some problems with it. I need to encode this String to UTF-8 encoding. I have tried it by this way, but it doesn\'t work:

Answer 1

I have use below code to encode the special character by specifying encode format.

String text = "This is an example é";
byte[] byteText = text.getBytes(Charset.forName("UTF-8"));
//To get original string from byte.
String originalString= new String(byteText , "UTF-8");
