hi guys, I want to use boost::regex in Windows XP to match Japanese kanji. The encoding of kanji is UTF-8 I want to make sure after I use the funcation: MultibyteToWideChar to change the UTF-8 Kanji string->wstring, I can directly use boost::wregex(from wstring) to match Japanese?

Not an expert in this, but if you compiled Boost.Regex with ICU, it should have full support for such languages, whereas wide-chars may not. May need someone else to come around and confirm...
