Unicode Line Separators

Question

The Unicode Newline Guidelines suggests that a LS (Line Separator) character should be used. I'm currently using a '\n' in my strings but would like to use the unicode representation of this. It looks like the Unicode representation for LS is 2028. However my tests are resulting in the question mark (?) instead of a newline. Am I using the wrong code?
sample code:
public class Test {
  private static void main(String args[]) {
    String line = "First Name \u2028 Last Name";
    System.out.println(line);
[\code]
actual output:
First Name ? Last Name
desired output
First Name
Last Name

Answer 1

My understanding is that if you use the following:
String newline=System.getProperty("line.separator");
Java will use the correct line separator for the Locale. Most like the reason that you are getting ? is because your system is interpreting the unicode character \u2028 with a wrong character set.
