Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Actually the locale affects case-insensitively matching if use the re.LOCAL flag. The set of characters matched by b'[A-Z]' is locale-depending. For example in Turkish locale it can include the letters 'İ' and 'ı'. Only 8-bit locales are supported, not UTF-8 locales.
In Unicode case-insensitive mode the expression '[A-Z]' matches not only Latin uppercase and lowercacase letters A-Z and a-z, but also characters 'İ', 'ı', 'ſ', and 'K'. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24896> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
