Any idea if I need to change locale? How will that be useful?
I don't know I'd never used this way. Maybe it will work if your default locale non-cyrillic, but to be honest i don't know much about locales. I also use VisualStudio and all work out of the box.
Changing the locale is primarily used for stuff like: correct date/time format, decimal point ("." or ",") and if you want to support multiple languages through wxTranslations.
@doublemax. That means I can just completely avoid using locale settings, if I don't care about commas or decimal points etc? and Unicode and displaying characters in different languages will still work.

Yes. You just have to be aware of the locale dependent automatic conversion of 8 bit characters to Unicode like in your other thread. But as long as you avoid that, you're fine.
