Bug description: array_multisort SORT_STRING not working as a MySQL SELECT
with ORDER BY would
Description:
------------
There is a problem with array_multisort in languages other than English.
For special chars, as A with accent (Á), the sorting does not correspond
to what might expect from a MySQL SELECT with ORDER BY.
For example the code attached to the message
will sort the array in this way: ABADIA, ALVAREZ, BUÑUEL, ZUBIETA,
ÁLVARES
while a MySQL SELECT with ORDER BY nombre ASC will yield
ABADIA, ÁLVARES, ALVEREZ, BUÑUEL, ZUBIETA
as A and Á are considered two different representations of the same
letter.
Reproduce code:
---------------
foreach ($students as $key => $row){
$surname[$key] = $row['surname'];
}
array_multisort($surname, SORT_ASC, $students);
Expected result:
----------------
ABADIA, ÁLVARES, ALVEREZ, BUÑUEL, ZUBIETA
Actual result:
--------------
ABADIA, ALVAREZ, BUÑUEL, ZUBIETA, ÁLVARES
