        public static java.lang.String escapeJava​(java.lang.String str)
                                   throws java.io.IOException
        Escapes the characters in a String using Java String rules.

        Deals correctly with quotes and control-chars (tab, backslash, cr, ff, etc.)

        So a tab becomes the characters '\\' and 't'.

        The only difference between Java strings and JavaScript strings is that in JavaScript, a single quote must be escaped.

        Example: 

         input string: He didn't say, "Stop!"
 output string: He didn't say, \"Stop!\"
        Parameters:
        str - String to escape values in, may be null
        Returns:
        String with escaped values, null if null string input
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
