Please see the following sample.

=============================== sample code ===============================
#include <iostream>
#include <regex>

int main()
{
    std::regex re("");
    std::cout << re.flags() << std::endl;
    try {
        re.assign("(", std::regex_constants::icase);
    } catch (const std::regex_error& e) {
        std::cout << e.code() << std::endl;
    }
    std::cout << re.flags() << std::endl;
}

The C++11 standard 28.8.3[re.regex.assign]/p.15 says, "If an exception is
thrown, *this is unchanged."

So I think that the output should be
