Boost.Locale not working with locales. Totally

[sunheretic13@…]

Boost.Locale not working with locales (on Windows). This part of the library needs a remake.

I attach a sample program with display results. This is a small part that not working.

As you can see the boost locale not doing anything useful.

I can only answer RTFM...

Your "example" does nothing useful and you don't understand what Boost.Locale does and does not.

Replying to artyom:

I RTFM. Boost.Locale not perform their work. It's not collate. It's not correct displayed.

artyom,

Give me a working example for the COLLATE operation through bust.locale with Russian text.

You did not get it done.

Also I don't what what backend are you using and what compiler

http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_51_0/libs/locale/doc/html/using_localization_backends.html

I suggest compile Boost.Locale with ICU.

And read this: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_51_0/libs/locale/doc/html/default_encoding_under_windows.html

And finally do not go with statements that "Nothing works" when you do not understand the basics.

Later I produce another example - bad work "to_upper" function (throw debugger, not console output, that may change result).

How do you explain to me this code -

generator gen; std::locale::global(gen("brainfuck"));

Why does this start? Where the generation of exceptions to the wrong locale?

I already read several weeks ago http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_51_0/libs/locale/doc/html/default_encoding_under_windows.html This does not me help. Changing Windows console to UTF-8 not help for me.
