hello all,
been banging my head over this

,
would appreciate if anyone could help.
I have a string which is been encoded in base64 algorithm,
When I decode it I get something like this
String decoded = "PARTHIRU3 \u0000u\u0001_C \u0018\u0000C \u0018\u0000\u0000t�o\u0000u\u0001_\u0000\u0000\u0000\u000F\u0000\u0000\u0000\u000F\u0000\u0000\u0000\u000F\u0000\u0000\u0000\u000F\u0000t�o\u0000u\u0001_C\u0000t�o\u0000u\u0001_ \u0000t�o\u0000u\u0001_ C\u0000t�o\u0000u\u0001_\u0000\u0000\u0000\u000F\u0000\u0000\u0000\u000F\u0000\u0000\u0000\u000F\u0000\u0000\u0000\u000F\u0000u\u0001_\u0000\u0000\u0000\u000FSO\u0000t�o\u0000\u0000\u0000u\u0001_\u0018\u0000A01\u0000t�o\u0000u\u0001_\u0000u\u0001_D\u0000u\u0001_\u0000u\u0019�\u0000u\u0001_S\u0000t�o\u0000u\u0001_ \u0000t�o\u0000u\u0001_ \u0000t�o\u0000u\u0001_E\u0005\u0000u\u0001_\u0000t�o\u0000u\u0001_S\u0000u\u0001_ \u0018\u0000\u0018\u0000\u0000t�o\u0000u\u0001_\u0000\u0000\u0018\u0000\u0000u\u0001_\u0018\u0000\u0000t�o\u0000u\u0001_\u0018\u0000C\u0000\u0000\u0018\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0018\u0000 T\u0000u\u0001_";
As you can see this string has lot of escape literals all over the place,(a mix of null, trademark etc)
In midst of the whole thing I have to extract bits and pieces of data,
1, how do I remove all the escape from this string?
Sincerely appreciate your efforts
Best regards,
Parthi
