Re: [boost] MSVC doesn't like some high-ASCII characters on non-US systems

BTW, need I say that IMNSHO that MSVC warning is very stupid?

I think it raises a broader question about compiler support for text encodings. Ideally boost could standardise on utf-8 and bring C++ into a globalised, multi-lingual world. But, I'm not sure what the C++ standard says about handling of non-ASCII encodings... MSVC seems to be saying that it interprets source code in a locale-dependent manner. Nigel
