carriage return in hex 0D

[Patricia Smith]

Hi,

I need some help in writing Java code in representing carriage returns
in Hex 0D. I've written a program in Java on an Unix system that
passes data to a Stratus machine via TCP/IP socket. The data I send to
the Stratus box needs to have carriage returns in it, which I've
written in Java as "\r", but the Stratus box does not seem to
recognize it. It is expecting a hex 0D instead.

Does anyone know how to code in Java to pass a hex 0D?

Thanks in advance for any advice you can provide.

Pat

From the Java Language Specification (JLS)
<http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/third_edition/html/lexical.html#101089>:

3.10.6 Escape Sequences for Character and String Literals
....
EscapeSequence:
....
\ r /* \u000d: carriage return CR */

You want to send the '\r' character. Your encoding (ASCII, ISO-8859-1, UTF-8,
....) may matter.

[why not limit the number of newsgroups you post to a bit ?]

\r is a CR (hex 0D).

The syntax for using hex in strings are

"xx\u000Dxx"

but "xx\rxx" should do the same.

Can you post a little code snippet on how you setup
the string and write it to the socket ?
