URL Decode

Demonstrates how to URL decode a string. Java

import com.chilkatsoft.*;

public class ChilkatExample {

  static {
    try {
        System.loadLibrary("chilkat");
    } catch (UnsatisfiedLinkError e) {
      System.err.println("Native code library failed to load.\n" + e);
      System.exit(1);
    }
  }

  public static void main(String argv[])
  {
    boolean success = false;

    CkStringBuilder sb = new CkStringBuilder();

    //  Here we wish to URL decode the following string:
    success = sb.Append("%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%A6%D7%A81.jpg");

    //  Notice the above string contains Hebrew chars using the utf-8 byte representation.
    //  See https://www.loc.gov/marc/specifications/codetables/BasicHebrew.html
    //  For example:  D79E is the HEBREW LETTER MEM

    //  Therefore, when we decode to binary bytes, we must interpret the bytes as utf-8
    //  to get characters.

    //  Tell Chilkat to URL decode like this:
    success = sb.Decode("url","utf-8");

    //  sb now contains the decoded string.
    System.out.println(sb.getAsString());
  }
