Are you sure you don't mean
String comments = aListing.additionalComments().replaceAll("\n",
"\\n");
comments = comments.replaceAll("\r", "\\n");
But this would leave you with double "\n"'s in your output.
Maybe try
String comments = aListing.additionalComments().replaceAll("\r
\n", "\n");
comments = comments.replaceAll("\n", "\\n");
This is probably the simplest solution and should work fine
provided you don't have any input with just \r's.
This got me closer
returned value in the .txt document is:
Testing the new linenncarriage return replace methodnnfor the text
download.
Try this:
String comments = aListing.additionalComments().replaceAll("\r?\n",
"\\\\n")
That worked perfectly. Why is the question mark there?
That is part of a regular expression and means that it searches for an
expression with zero or one '\r' in front of '\n'.

Thanks a lot,

I am trying to print out a text document with data from a CLOB
in Frontbase. In my code, I get the data and set it to a string
value. What I want to do is get rid of all line breaks and
carriage returns. So here is what I have tried and the results
that follow:
String comments = aListing.additionalComments().replaceAll("\n",
"\\n");
result:
Testing the new line

ncarriage return replace method

next:
String comments = aListing.additionalComments().replaceAll("\r",
"\\n");
result:
Testing the new linen

for the text download.
from this I decided it might have both carriage returns and line
breaks so ...
String comments = aListing.additionalComments().replaceAll("\n",
"\\n");
comments = aListing.additionalComments().replaceAll("\r", "\\n");
result:
Testing the new linen
n

n
for the text download.
I want the result to be:
Testing the new line\ncarriage return replace method\nfor the
text download
Can anybody give me a hint please?
Thanks,
Awbrey
