MySQL 8.4 Release Notes
12.2 MySQL 中的字符集和排序规则
MySQL Server 支持多种字符集，包括几个 Unicode 字符集。要显示可用的字符集，可以使用 INFORMATION_SCHEMA CHARACTER_SETS 表或SHOW CHARACTER SET 语句。以下是一部分列表。更多信息，请见 第12.10节，“支持的字符集和排序规则”.
Press CTRL+C to copymysql> SHOW CHARACTER SET; +----------+---------------------------------+---------------------+--------+ | Charset | Description | Default collation | Maxlen | +----------+---------------------------------+---------------------+--------+ | big5 | Big5 Traditional Chinese | big5_chinese_ci | 2 | | binary | Binary pseudo charset | binary | 1 | ... | latin1 | cp1252 West European | latin1_swedish_ci | 1 | ... | ucs2 | UCS-2 Unicode | ucs2_general_ci | 2 | ... | utf8mb3 | UTF-8 Unicode | utf8mb3_general_ci | 3 | | utf8mb4 | UTF-8 Unicode | utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci | 4 | ...
默认情况下，SHOW CHARACTER SET 语句显示所有可用的字符集。它可以带有可选的LIKE 或 WHERE 子句，指示要匹配的字符集名称。以下示例显示一些 Unicode 字符集（基于 Unicode 转换格式）：
Press CTRL+C to copymysql> SHOW CHARACTER SET LIKE 'utf%'; +---------+------------------+--------------------+--------+ | Charset | Description | Default collation | Maxlen | +---------+------------------+--------------------+--------+ | utf16 | UTF-16 Unicode | utf16_general_ci | 4 | | utf16le | UTF-16LE Unicode | utf16le_general_ci | 4 | | utf32 | UTF-32 Unicode | utf32_general_ci | 4 | | utf8mb3 | UTF-8 Unicode | utf8mb3_general_ci | 3 | | utf8mb4 | UTF-8 Unicode | utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci | 4 | +---------+------------------+--------------------+--------+
给定的字符集总是至少有一个排序规则，多数字符集都有几个。要列出字符集的显示排序规则，可以使用 INFORMATION_SCHEMA COLLATIONS 表或SHOW COLLATION 语句。
默认情况下，SHOW COLLATION 语句显示所有可用的排序规则。它可以带一个可选的LIKE 或 WHERE 子句，指示要显示哪些排序规则名称。例如，要查看默认字符集utf8mb4的排序规则，可以使用以下语句：
Press CTRL+C to copymysql> SHOW COLLATION WHERE Charset = 'utf8mb4'; +----------------------------+---------+-----+---------+----------+---------+---------------+ | Collation | Charset | Id | Default

关于这些排序规则的更多信息，请参见第12.10.1节，“Unicode 字符集”。
排序规则具有这些一般特征：
-
两个不同的字符集不能拥有相同的排序规则。 -
每个字符集都有一个默认排序规则。例如，
utf8mb4和latin1的默认排序规则分别是utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci和latin1_swedish_ci。INFORMATION_SCHEMA表CHARACTER_SETS和SHOW CHARACTER SET语句指示每个字符集的默认排序规则。INFORMATION_SCHEMA表COLLATIONS和SHOW COLLATION语句有一个列，指示每个排序规则是否是其字符集的默认排序规则（如果是，则为Yes，否则为空）。 -
排序规则名称以与之关联的字符集名称开头，通常后跟一个或多个表示其他排序特征的后缀。关于命名约定，请参见第12.3.1节，“排序规则命名约定”。
当字符集有多个排序规则时，可能不清楚哪个排序规则最适合给定的应用程序。为了避免选择不合适的排序规则，请使用代表数据值进行一些比较，以确保给定的排序规则按预期方式排序值。
