Re: WebSocket: Special character escaping

[Ganesh Bms <gb...@gmail.com>]

Thanks Mark. Sample web socket chat helped to identify the problem. In
fact, problem was there in one of third-party lib I used and also, in log4j
config. The log4j was configured with non-utf encoding scheme. That's why
raw web socket messages were getting printed wrongly in log file. I solved
the issue by putting UTF-8 escaping to special characters.

Regards,
Ganesh
