The JLS, section 3.10.5 does not mention that a String literal
can't contain \u0022 (") unicode characters.

The following code:

public class StringTest {
    {
        System.out.println("Hello\u0022World");
    }
}

leads to this error:

C:\DATA\java>javac StringTest.java
StringTest.java:3: ')' expected.
        System.out.println("Hello\u0022World");
                                       ^
StringTest.java:3: String not terminated at end of line.
        System.out.println("Hello\u0022World");
                                            ^
2 errors

(Can be solved by either changing the JLS or by changing the
compiler)
