I can't reproduce this particular problem. Here's the test I wrote:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sqlite3.h>
int main() {
sqlite3* db;
sqlite3_open(":memory:", &db);
sqlite3_exec(db, "create table t(id, text)", 0, 0, 0);
sqlite3_stmt* insert;
sqlite3_prepare(db, "insert into t(id, text) values (?, ?)", -1,
&insert, 0);
sqlite3_bind_int(insert, 1, 1);
sqlite3_bind_text16(insert, 2, L"\u6B4C", -1, SQLITE_STATIC);
sqlite3_step(insert);
sqlite3_reset(insert);
sqlite3_bind_int(insert, 1, 2);
sqlite3_bind_text16(insert, 2, L"\u30A2", -1, SQLITE_STATIC);
sqlite3_step(insert);
sqlite3_finalize(insert);
sqlite3_stmt* select;
sqlite3_prepare(db, "select id, text from t order by text", -1,
&select, 0);
while (sqlite3_step(select) == SQLITE_ROW) {
int id = sqlite3_column_int(select, 0);
wchar_t* text = (wchar_t*)sqlite3_column_text16(select, 1);
printf("id=%d text=%X\n", id, (int)text[0]);
}
sqlite3_finalize(select);
sqlite3_close(db);
return 0;
}
This program prints
id=2 text=30A2
id=1 text=6B4C
meaning that sorting is as expected. Figure out what you are doing
differently.
Note that, in general, there's more to collation than a simple memcmp
that SQLite does. Consider for example U+30FD (Katakana Iteration Mark).
As I understand, a string containing it should sort as if the preceding
character was actually repeated: so ?? (U+30A2 U+30FD) should sort
before ?? (U+30A2 U+30A4). Also consider halfwidth letters (e.g. U+FF71
Halfwidth Katakana Letter A) which are expected to be sorted near their
fullwidth equivalents.
