In URI '#' is reserved for fragment-id but I have a situation where my password contains a '#' character which is not being recognized by URI. Given below is the piece of the code. What needs to be done?

ftpfs.initialize(new URI("ftp://username:password@host"), conf);

Thanks for the quick response but even after URL encoding it is not recognizing ' # ' in the password. Could you please suggest me how to do it? – Praveen Y B R Oct 12 '17 at 09:27
