[edit] Parameters

ch - character
loc - locale

[edit] Return value

Returns true if the character is classified as uppercase, false otherwise.

[edit] Possible implementation

template<class CharT>
bool isupper(CharT ch, const std::locale& loc)
{
    return std::use_facet<std::ctype<CharT>>(loc).is(std::ctype_base::upper, ch);
}

[edit] Example

Demonstrates the use of std::isupper() with different locales (OS-specific).

#include <iostream>
#include <locale>
 
int main()
{
    const wchar_t c = L'\u00de'; // LATIN CAPITAL LETTER THORN
 
    std::locale loc1("C");
    std::cout << std::boolalpha
              << "isupper('Þ', C locale) returned " << std::isupper(c, loc1) << '\n'
              << "islower('Þ', C locale) returned " << std::islower(c, loc1) << '\n';
 
    std::locale loc2("en_US.UTF8");
    std::cout << "isupper('Þ', Unicode locale) returned "
              << std::isupper(c, loc2) << '\n'
              << "islower('Þ', Unicode locale) returned "
              << std::islower(c, loc2) << '\n';
}

Possible output:

isupper('Þ', C locale) returned false
islower('Þ', C locale) returned false
isupper('Þ', Unicode locale) returned true
islower('Þ', Unicode locale) returned false
