1 MySQL字符集简介

MySQL服务器可以支持多种字符集，在同一台服务器，同一个数据库，甚至同一个表的不同字段都可以指定使用不同的字符集，相比oracle等其他数据库管理系统，在同一个数据库只能使用相同的字符集，MySQL明显存在更大的灵活性。

MySQL的字符集包括字符集(CHARACTER)和校对规则(COLLATION)两个概念。字符集是用来定义MySQL存储字符串的方式，校对规则则是定义了比较字符串的方式，解决排序和字符分组的问题。字符集和校对规则是一对多的关系,每个字符集至少对应一个校对规则，MySQL支持39种字符集的将近200种校对规则。

在MySQL中，字符集的概念和编码方案被看做是同义词，一个字符集是一个转换表和一个编码方案的组合。

Unicode(Universal Code)是一种在计算机上使用的字符编码。Unicode 是为了解决传统的字符编码方案的局限而产生的，它为每种语言中的每个字符设定了统一并且唯一的二进制编码，以满足跨语言、跨平台进行文本转换、处理的要求。Unicode存在不同的编码方案，包括Utf-8，Utf-16和Utf-32。Utf表示Unicode Transformation Format。

mysql> show character set;mysql> select * from information_schema.character_sets;mysql> select character_set_name, default_collate_name, description, maxlen from information_schema.character_sets; 输出结果如下
