While you are waiting for getting help, here are some tips to improve your experience:

Code is much easier to read if posted with syntax highlighting and proper formatting.

If nobody is calling back, that usually means that your question was not well asked and hence nobody feels confident enough answering. Try to use your time to elaborate, provide details, context, more code, examples and maybe some screenshots. With enough info, someone knows the answer for sure.

Don't forget to close your thread using the command </help-thread close:1027500463647621170> when your question has been answered, thanks.

#

that said, u only need to escape characters that have special meaning in a string. in this case, it's only the double quote ". not the single quote

#

a proper ide like intellij will also automatically do everything for u if u post the original text into it

#

Also note that java has string blocks """... """ which allow u to skip escaping like this entirely

#

but only for newer version of java

#

which you should use anyways

Don't ask people via direct message (DM); Q&A takes place in our server, public - nobody will steal your code
and only mutual server is together java + emccue post it himself
