How can I replace a unicode character in java string

Question

I have an issue in my project that is replacing a unicode character with another unicode character in a Java string.

After searching and trying different codes, I didn't get the solution for that I want to replace a character in Persian to another character in Persian with a different unicode number.

I really appreciate any help.

Thanks

So you're saying that `String#replace(...)` doesn't work? – Hovercraft Full Of Eels Apr 12 '14 at 00:26 — Hovercraft Full Of Eels, Apr 12 '14 at 00:26

Trying this will solve your issue.

str.replaceAll("\\p{Sc}", string_to_replcae);

and example can be like below:

String str = "For some reason my �double quotes� were lost.";
    str = str.replaceAll("\uFFFD", "\"");

this example can be viewed from here : How to replace ï¿½ in a string
