If I define the string in the header file as:
#define MY_CONSTANT "\x5cresign\x00"
Then printf("Test: %s",MY_CONSTANT) prints "Test: \resign".
OK. Fine. But this is pure C and my goal is to use this string in
Objective-C so I tried the following:
NSString * myString = [NSString stringWithCString:MY_CONSTANT
encoding:NSASCIIEncoding];
NSLog("Test (Obj-C): %@",myString);
prints "Test (Obj-c): \\resign";

"\r" is giving you trouble because it's being converted to a return
character. Similar to "\n" actually.
What exactly is displaying "\\resign"? The debugger may be tricking
you. If you actually printf the string, does it look correct?

Hello,
I am trying to work with some unicode characters, especially the
'\' (backslash) and I thought it would be easy but it is not. Here
what I tried:
1) Created a Localizable.strings file with the characters, for
example MY_CONSTANT = "\resign";
2) When I load MY_CONSTANT it looks like " esign" (the space in
fact becomes a new line)
3) Changed to MY_CONSTANT = "\U005Cresign". (5C is the code for \)
4) Now it looks like "\\resign".
5) Changed to MY_CONSTANT = "\U005C\U0072esign". (72 is the code
for r)
6) Now it continues to look like "\\resign".
Well, is there a way that I can have MY_CONSTANT returning
"\resign"? Or do I have to take another approach?
Thanks for any help,
