[h4 Description]
The class `regex_traits` is just a thin wrapper around an actual implementation
class, which may be one of:
* `c_regex_traits`: this class is deprecated, it wraps the C locale, and is used as the default implementation when the platform is not Win32, and the C++ locale is not available.
* `cpp_regex_traits`: the default traits class for non-Win32 platforms, allows the regex class to be imbued with a std::locale instance.
* `w32_regex_traits`: the default traits class implementation on Win32 platforms, allows the regex class to be imbued with an LCID.
The default behavior can be altered by defining one of the following
configuration macros in
[@../../../../boost/regex/user.hpp boost/regex/user.hpp]
* BOOST_REGEX_USE_C_LOCALE: makes `c_regex_traits` the default.
* BOOST_REGEX_USE_CPP_LOCALE: makes `cpp_regex_traits` the default.
All these traits classes fulfil the
[link boost_regex.ref.concepts.traits_concept traits class requirements].
