Print string literal unicode as the actual character

Question

In my Java application I have been passed in a string that looks like this:

\"\\u00a5123\"

When printing that string into the console, I get the same string

Answer 1

Could replace the above with this:

System.out.println((char)0x63A5);

Here is the code to print all of the box building unicode characters.

public static void printBox()
{
    for (int i=0x2500;i<=0x257F;i++)
    {
        System.out.printf("0x%x : %c\n",i,(char)i);
    }
}
