JTextArea does not recognize hex 0A as new line.

807580Sep 15 2010 — edited Sep 15 2010
Hi,

I am populating a JTextArea with the contents of a file in the form of a string.
It seems like that the JTextArea has problems recognizing hex 0A as new line, so all lines end up on one single line in the JTextArea.

How can I replace hex 0A with for instance '\n' ?

I have tried to use replaceAll("\\r", "\n") and replaceAll("\r", "\n") on the string before populating the JTextArea, but it just does not work.

Thanks for any help!
