To get German sorting order, you should start mysqld with
--default-character-set=latin1_de. This will give you the following
characteristics.
When sorting and comparing strings, the following mapping is done on the strings before doing the comparison:
@"a -> ae @"o -> oe @"u -> ue ß -> ss |
All accented characters, are converted to their un-accented uppercase counterpart. All letters are converted to uppercase.
When comparing strings with LIKE the one -> two character mapping
is not done. All letters are converted to uppercase. Accent are removed
from all letters except: @"U, @"u, @"O, @"o,
@"A and @"a.
