Double quotes characters can be escaped with backslash( \ ) in java.
Use the String. replaceAll() method to remove all double quotes from a string, e.g. str. replaceAll('"', '') . The replace() method will return a new string with all double quotes removed.
Just a character-by-character replace is sufficient. You can use String#replace() for this. String replaced = original. replace("\"", " ");
If you are dealing with a char then simply do this: c == '"'; If c is equal to the double quote the expression will evaluate to true .
Use Java's replaceAll(String regex, String replacement)
For example, Use a substitution char for the quotes and then replace that char with \"
String newstring = String.replaceAll("%","\"");
or replace all instances of \" with \\\"
String newstring = String.replaceAll("\"","\\\"");
Escaping the double quotes with backslashes is the only way to do this in Java.
Some IDEs around such as IntelliJ IDEA do this escaping automatically when pasting such a String into a String literal (i.e. between the double quotes surrounding a java String literal)
One other option would be to put the String into some kind of text file that you would then read at runtime
For a String constant you have no choice other than escaping via backslash.
Maybe you find the MyBatis project interesting. It is a thin layer over JDBC where you can externalize your SQL queries in XML configuration files without the need to escape double quotes.
