    Are you sure the locale was successfully set? Try

    cout << cout.rdbuf()->getloc().name();

    after the imbue and see what it prints out.

    As you said i tried printing the stream locale is shows "Japanese_Japan.932". One thing observed is that if setlocale(LC_ALL ,"") call is commented then the message is printed correctly. Any idea why ?

      No. His encoding is Shift_JIS (CP 932) and that's multibyte, not wide char.

        What is the User default ANSI code page of your operating system? If that is the same as the code page of what you're trying to print, I don't see why it should fail. From the docs ^: setlocale( LC_ALL, "" ); Sets the locale to the default, which is the user-default ANSI code page obtained from the operating system.

              Hi, I am trying out the following code .

              setlocale(LC_ALL ,"");
              std::string ab = "名前を入力してください: " ;

              cout.imbue(std::locale("Japanese_Japan.932"));
              cout<<ab<<endl; // No message seen on console
              printf("%s" ,ab.c_str());// this statement is printing the message

              Both system and user locale are set to japanese. Cout statement doesnt print the message in screen. I am able to print message using printf . how can i use cout to print japanese meesages ? Thanks in advance

              If you are using std::wstring's, you need std::wcout. std::cout works *only* with std::strings. Since there is no _tcout, I like to use _tprintf (and _T macro) when printing Unicode stuff in console. Take this code for example: std::wstring test1 = _T("test1"); std::cout << test1.c_str() << endl; // prints junk "0012DE10" std::wcout << test1.c_str() << endl; // prints "test1" But to do it "properly", something like this is needed: std::basic_string<TCHAR> test1 = _T("test1"); _tprintf(_T("Testing string is: %s"), test1.c_str()); I hope that helps. Best regards, loreia

                        use wprintf() instead of printf(). likely use wide char version of cout(wcout) instead of cout
