title: Java String saving as unicode in database
body: <p>I want to store java string as a unicode string in the database. Please let me know if this is possible?</p>
  
  <p>For example :</p>
  
  <pre><code>String columnValue="Sample \u0020\u0061\u0074\u0020\u0032\u0032\u0042\u0020 text";
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want to save the above exactly (as it is which is bolded) into the database and retreive it.</p>
  
  <p>DB column should store as :</p>
  
  <pre><code>ColumnA
  ---------
  Sample \u0020\u0061\u0074\u0020\u0032\u0032\u0042\u0020 text    ( with unicode string value)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When  read it back from java, it should display:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Sample  at 22B  text
  </code></pre>
