Eclipse considers the Unicode char '\u000A' an invalid character constant 
anywhere i try to use it as a char object.  Which this makes Eclipse think 
there is an error with the java file.  The java file works fine outside of 
Eclipse, just eclipse doesn't like it.  Technically that is a Line Feed 
character, so i don't know why it shouldn't be supported.

Moving to JCORE.

This is explicitely forbidden by JLS 3.10.4.
You should use \n' instead. Javac behaves identically.
