Re: utf8, locale and regexp

Hmmm ... on Windows I can run:

use strict;
use warnings;

my $test = "État";
my $test2 = "É";
if ($test =~ /$test2/) {print "matches\n"} else {print "does not match
+es\n"}
[download]

which results in the output of matches.

Not sure if that helps ... perhaps not.

Cheers,
Rob

Nope: your script must be utf8. Namely the char 'É' should be utf8 encoded.	[reply]
