<p>
All of the ECMAScript regular expression syntax features are supported, except
that:
</p>
<p>
The escape sequence \u matches any upper case character (the same as [[:upper:]])
rather than a Unicode escape sequence; use \x{DDDD} for Unicode escape sequences.

<a href="standards.html#boost_regex.background_information.standards.posix">POSIX</a>
</h5>
<p>
All the POSIX basic and extended regular expression features are supported,
except that:
</p>
<p>
No character collating names are recognized except those specified in the
POSIX standard for the C locale, unless they are explicitly registered with
the traits class.
</p>
<p>
Character equivalence classes ( [[=a=]] etc) are probably buggy except on
Win32. Implementing this feature requires knowledge of the format of the
string sort keys produced by the system; if you need this, and the default
implementation doesn't work on your platform, then you will need to supply
a custom traits class.
