(6) when RFID middleware starts, read the operational mode information that each RFID device is plug-in: for plug-in with the equipment of detached process mode operation, RFID middleware starts a new detached process RFID device container, starts corresponding RFID device plug-in by detached process RFID device container; For plug-in with the equipment embedding middleware pattern, RFID middleware creates a new embedded RFID equipment external pod in middleware host process, starts RFID device plug-in by this container;
(7) RFID middleware by different containers started corresponding RFID device plug-in after, send its burse mode and relevant RFID device information to the message queue that this RFID device is plug-in;
(8) the plug-in burse mode that receives of described RFID device sets and after RFID device information of being correlated with, according to quantity and the burse mode set information of received RFID device, automatically adjusts worker thread quantity, enter normal mode of operation;
(9) the plug-in process of RFID device is after normal mode of operation, according to the label acquisition instructions that RFID middleware sends, scans, and return relevant tag data to RFID label tag data receiver message queue to equipment interior label data.
In described step (1), hanging in physical aspect outside the RFID device in RFID middleware, is a dynamic link library.
In described step (3), in the process model of RFID middleware, provide two kinds of processes: RFID middleware host process and the plug-in process of RFID.
Beneficial effect
The present invention can in large-scale RFID application system, under the requirement that many equipment works simultaneously, make full use of the multinuclear characteristic of single computing machine, improve the processing power of RFID middleware, be different from traditional one process RFID middleware, adopt multi-process mode, the plug-in scheduling obtaining equilibrium of each equipment can be made, avoid because the plug-in exception of certain RFID device causes whole RFID middleware to be collapsed.
Accompanying drawing explanation
Fig. 1 is the block diagram of the invention process example.
Embodiment
Below in conjunction with specific embodiments and the drawings, set forth the present invention further.
Core concept of the present invention is: utilize the equipment of multi-process plug-in, make full use of the ability of the multiprocessor of modern computer hardware, simultaneously in each equipment is plug-in, according to application demand, can arrange different models of concurrency.Owing to introducing the framework of multi-process, make RFID middleware can not cause global failure due to the plug-in collapse of certain equipment, reduce the possibility of Single Point of Faliure.
As shown in Figure 1, the RFID device external hanging device implemented according to the inventive method is used for, in RFID middleware, mainly comprising: manage submodule, embedded RFID equipment external pod, RFID device external pod, the plug-in command reception message queue of RFID and RFID plug-in device collecting thread pond in RFID middleware primary module.
RFID external pod is a detached process, and it and embedded RFID equipment external pod have identical message queue interface, manages submodule and directly carry out the mutual of data and steering order only by message queue in they and RFID middleware.
When the plug-in startup of RFID device, it is according to the setting of current application, and according to the quantity of relevant device, start a RFID plug-in device collecting thread pond, each thread is responsible for the scanning/write operation of one or more RFID device.
When RFID device is plug-in collect label data time, they data are sent to RFID middleware label data receive message queue in, complete tag scan task.
When needs are to electronic tag write data, RFID middleware host process by writing corresponding control message in the plug-in message queue of relevant device, after RFID device receives corresponding control message, with equipment specific protocol, the RFID device of specifying in message sends label data write/modify instruction, and result is back among RFID middleware host process, complete the whole flow process of label write.
In the process model of RFID middleware, there are two kinds of processes: RFID middleware host process and the plug-in process of RFID device.
RFID middleware host process is in charge of the plug-in process of all RFID device, is sent label acquisition instructions to RFID device is plug-in and accepts plug-in collected electronic tag data.The plug-in process of RFID device has then been responsible for.RFID middleware host process and RFID device plug-in between, the message queue only by striding course communicates.
Operationally, each RFID device is plug-in, and can exist with the form of a detached process, the embedded RFID external pod that also can be provided by RFID middleware, is embedded in RFID middleware and runs.
When being configured to detached process and being plug-in, RFID device is plug-in to be existed as detached process; When be configured to embedded plug-in time, in the host process of the plug-in direct embedding RFID middleware of RFID device.
Plug-in for RFID device, it can have multiple models of concurrency: each equipment thread, each plug-in thread and each plug-in specified quantity thread.
In the simplest situations, all devices under each RFID is plug-in shares a thread, when having multiple RFID device in systems in which, if device access exists the phenomenons such as obstruction or delay, then this model must cause degraded performance due to serial processing.
In RFID middleware equipment is plug-in, also support each equipment thread mode and fixed qty thread.Pattern as its name suggests, each equipment thread mode is exactly be each RFID device plug-in distribution processing threads in plug-in, because this mode may exist the wasting of resources, therefore a compromise pattern is created---fixed qty thread, so that according to the real-time tuning of the ruuning situation of reality.
The present invention can in large-scale RFID application system, under the requirement that many equipment works simultaneously, make full use of the multinuclear characteristic of single computing machine, improve the processing power of RFID middleware, be different from traditional one process RFID middleware, adopt multi-process mode, the plug-in scheduling obtaining equilibrium of each equipment can be made, avoid because the plug-in exception of certain RFID device causes whole RFID middleware to be collapsed.
In dissimilar application, the quantity of various RFID device may from several to hundreds.In the present invention, by providing models of concurrency flexibly for RFID device is plug-in, such that each RFID device is plug-in all according to the actual requirements, can set different models of concurrency.
And the amendment achieved only by configuration, the switching hung over outside RFID device between different models of concurrency can be realized, even by change configuration, same RFID device can be realized plug-in, both under having may operate in detached process pattern, also as a dynamic linked library modular, can be embedded in RFID middleware.
Method described in the present invention, can work, comprise Windows, WinCE, Linux and Unix system in all operating system with shared drive.
