Question: Unicode character escape/unescape support?

[mattrpav]

Came across this question and I recall that at one point JAXB did not support escaping/unescaping unicode characters when marshalling.

Has this been addressed in more recent versions?

Is this what you're looking for ?

org.glassfish.jaxb.runtime.v2.runtime.MarshallerImpl#createEscapeHandler

You can define your own character escape handler when marshalling by setting property org.glassfish.jaxb.characterEscapeHandler or org.glassfish.jaxb.core.marshaller.CharacterEscapeHandler on your Marshaller instance
