setPreprocessUnicodeEscapes

open fun setPreprocessUnicodeEscapes(preprocessUnicodeEscapes: Boolean): ParserConfiguration(source)

When set to true, unicode escape handling is done by preprocessing the whole input, meaning that all unicode escapes are turned into unicode characters before parsing. That means the AST will never contain literal unicode escapes. However, positions in the AST will point to the original input, which is exactly the same as without this option. Without this option enabled, the unicode escapes will not be processed and are transfered intact to the AST.
