Hi John,

thanks for std::locale hint!

This piece of code does now work:

std::setlocale(LC_ALL, "");

boost::wregex condition;
        
condition.imbue(std::locale(""));
        
condition.assign(L"\\p{u}");

std::wstring test_word(L"Ü");

if (boost::regex_match(test_word, condition)) {
        std::wcout << L"Matches!" << std::endl;
}

Regards,

Stefan
