Hi! We are trying to migrate our applications to UTF-8 and so we started testing the new features of MySQL 4.1 (still using 4.0 currently). But we are facing some problems now. In our applications it could be theoretically the case that there is arabic, hebrew, japanese and korean content in one table. So i made up a small testscript which inserts several strings of several languages in one table and tested if the sorting works. The test-database stores utf8 and i used the utf8_general_ci collation (but i tested utf8_unicode_ci as well).
My results so far: western and eastern european languages work. arabic, hebrew, persian work too But the asian strings (korean, japanese, chinese) are completely unsorted (!). Did i hit a bug, did i miss anything or is the utf8_general collation not yet ready for asian letters? If so does anybody know when it will work properly?
