An execution definition is created, and an edit screen based on the created execution definition is displayed on the display device 13, and the user definition part is edited in the execution definition created by accepting an operation input from the input device 14. A definition is created (step S1), an input / output interface generation process (to be described later) is performed (step S2), and interpreted by the execution engine 111 to execute a business process (step S3).

  Then, the control device 11 executes the business program file 121, interprets and executes the execution definition generated by the processing up to step S4, and displays and inputs the business screen on the display device 13. Accepts operation input from the device 14, performs business processing using business information stored in the business DB 128 or outputs processing results by the printing device 16, etc., sales / order processing, creation of forms, registration of customer information, etc. Perform general business processing.

  As shown in FIG. 3A, the structure of the execution engine 111 that functions by the control device 11 executing the business program file 121 is an overall control 1111 that controls the flow of applications from start to finish, and the overall control 1111. Processing control 1112 that controls processing for each event, such as when starting, when accepting input, when finishing, and when counting, and in the input area on the business processing screen, cursor display there, input / selection button display, and input to select it Screen control 1113 for controlling the display screen on the display device 13, such as pointer display, etc., accepting operation input from the input device 14, input / output of data from the business DB 128, and performing predetermined calculations on specified data The data control 1114 performs data processing such as.

  As shown in FIG. 3A, the business skeleton template 122 has an event process definition 1221, a screen control definition 1222, and an input item definition 1223 corresponding to the process control 1112, the screen control 1113, and the data control 1114 of the execution engine 111. The configuration includes an initialization / substitution formula definition 1224 and an input / output interface definition 1225, and a user function definition 1226 for the user to define adjustments according to his / her business mode.

  The event process definition 1221 is a definition related to a process for each event in the business process called by the process control 1112. The screen control definition 1222 is an input control definition such as an input screen such as a configuration of a business processing screen called by the screen control 1113 and a cursor movement on the screen. The input item definition 1223 is a definition related to a standard input item in the business process that the data control 1114 calls. The initialization / assignment expression definition 1224 is an operation definition such as initialization or assignment expression in the business process called by the data control 1114. The input / output interface definition 1225 is a definition related to input / output of business information from the business DB 128 or the like called by the data control 1114.

  The process for each event in the business process defined by the event process definition 1221 is, for example, a process at startup such as date acquisition or connection with the business DB 128 as shown in FIG. Start-up processing I1, input start-up processing I2 that is a process such as reading parameters set in advance for sales processing at the start of input, and header portion start-up processing at the start and end of the sales slip header Time process I3, header part end process I4, similarly, detail part start process I5, detail part end process I6, which is a process in the detail part of a sales slip, and summation part start, which is also a process in a sales slip totaling part Time process I7, totaling section end process I8, input end process I9 for updating data at the end of input, and business DB 128 There is at the end of processing I10 performing end processing such as cutting.

  The user function definition 1226 is, for example, a startup event control U1 that describes the user definition in the process of the startup process I1 such as acquiring the date in the year, and a unique parameter setting U2 in which the user defines a parameter in the input start process I2. Or header part property U3, detail part property U4, summary part property U5, and the like when the header part start process I3, detail part start process I5, and summary part start time process I7 are defined by the user. Control process U6 at the end of input that defines the details of the process in process I9, control U7 at the end of input after search, control U8 at the end of input before update U8, control after update at the end of input U9, input area on business screen The user-defined input classification focus acquisition control U10 and input that define the process when the focus is acquired for The processing in the item definition 1223 is configured to include an input division value change time control U11 user-defined.

  As described above, the business skeleton template 122 controls the overall flow of the application with respect to the execution engine 111, and functions provided by a manufacturer or the like by editing the user function definition 1226 in step S1. Other functions can be added and adjusted. Further, by editing only the user function definition 1226, processing close to the execution engine 111 can be concealed, and system consistency can be maintained. In particular, at the time of editing the business skeleton template 122, it may be configured such that portions other than the user function definition 1226 are encrypted, binarized, or developed in an intermediate language to be invisible.

  As shown in FIG. 3B, the item template 123 includes a process insertion definition 1237 for defining in which function of the business skeleton template 122 a process for finely controlling an item, and control of input control related to the item. An input control control definition 1232 to be defined, an input control event control definition 1231 a to define a process at the time of focusing as an event for an item, an item event control definition 1231 b to define a process when a value change or an error occurs due to an input, and a user to the item User function definition 1236 including XXX focus acquisition control U12 and XXX value change control U13 that perform definition, input item data definition 1233 that defines management of data related to items such as input items and uncorrected items Initialize to Initialization / assignment expression definition 1234 that defines how to calculate and assign data of other items, input / output that defines how data related to items is received from or output from the business DB 128 The configuration includes an interface definition 1235 and an item template property 1238 that defines a property (operation attribute) for changing an operation related to an item.

  The insertion of the item template 123 into the business skeleton template 122 in step S1 is performed in the corresponding part of the business skeleton template 122 as shown in FIG. Specifically, the input control control definition 1232 related to the input control, the input control event control definition 1231a to the screen control definition 1222, the input item data definition 1233 related to the input item, the item event control definition 1231b to the input item definition 1223, and the operation definition. The initialization / substitution formula definition 1234 for the is inserted into the initialization / substitution formula definition 1224, respectively. Note that the input / output interface definition 1235 relating to business input / output or the like is inserted into the input / output interface definition 1225 in a process in step S2 described later. The name of the inserted item template is added to the item template management table 1271 in the setting file 127. The processing insertion definition 1237 is inserted into the insertion destination function name of the business skeleton template 122 that is the insertion destination. Specifically, as shown in the figure, it is performed for a predetermined part of the user function definition 1226. Note that the insertion of the print template 124, the DB processing template 125, or the business processing template 126 into the business skeleton template 122 is performed in the same manner as the insertion of the item template 123, and thus the description thereof is omitted.

Here, the input / output interface generation processing in step S2 will be described in detail.
As shown in FIG. 7A, the control device 11 acquires item names in the item template 123 with respect to the user execution definition in step S1 (step S11), and associations regarding input / output of all the items are performed. Until it is determined that the process has been completed (step S19), the processes of steps S12 to S18 described later are performed.

  After step S11, it is determined whether or not an input interface definition corresponding to the item name exists in the definition of the item template 123 (step S12). The same item as the item name exists in the definition of the DB processing template 125. Whether the item is defined in the application composer, that is, whether there is a correspondence of the item name in accordance with the conversion rule defined in the interface information generation table 130 (step S13). S14) is sequentially performed, and since there is no corresponding generation rule for items that do not exist in all, the input / output interfaces are associated so as not to be generated (step S18).

  In step S12, if an input interface definition corresponding to the item name exists in the definition of the item template 123, that is, if it is defined in the input / output interface definition 1235 or the like, the business skeleton template is based on the definition. Execution definition (input / output interface definition) is generated by inserting in 122.

  If the same item name as the item name exists in the definition of the DB processing template 125 in step S13, the execution definition (input / output interface definition) is inserted into the business skeleton template 122 based on the definition part in the DB processing template 125. Is generated.

  If the item is defined in the application composer in step S14, an execution definition (input / output interface definition) is generated in accordance with the correspondence stored in the interface information generation table 130 as shown in FIG. 5B. The

  Next, the process of deleting the input / output interface will be described in detail, contrary to the process described above. As shown in FIG. 7B, the control device 11 acquires an item name in the item template 123 (step S21), and an input / output interface corresponding to the item name such as a definition part to which the item name is attached. The process of deleting the definition (step S22) is performed until it is determined that the related information of all items has been deleted (step S23).

  When there is a definition corresponding to the item template 123 for each item input from the screen of the display device 13 as shown in FIG. If there is a definition corresponding to the processing template 125, or if there is a definition in the interface information generation table 130, an input / output interface is generated based on that definition. The business information in the business DB 128 in business processing can be used. Also, the definition related to the input / output interface can be deleted from the execution definition by the process of deleting the input / output interface.

  The information processing apparatus 1 is based on the business skeleton template 122 categorized and defined for each function without being bothered by the definition of input / output of business information in the business DB 128 by the processing from the above-described steps S1 to S3. An execution definition with each template inserted can be generated. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, a business screen related to sales slip input in which an item template 123 and a DB processing template 125 are inserted into a business skeleton template 122 related to sales slip input can be displayed on the display device 13. This sales slip input defines a framework of an input / output unit G4 that searches and registers information for the header part G1, the detail part G2, the totaling part G3, and the business DB 128 in the business skeleton template 122. The input / output unit G4 includes a slip number search interface IF1 that is an interface for searching for business information in the business DB 128 when the item is a slip number, and a customer that is a search interface when the item is a customer code. The code search interface IF2 is generated based on the input / output interface generation processing.

  Here, the processing of the execution engine 111 performed based on the execution definition related to the sales slip input described above will be described in detail.

  As shown in FIG. 9, the definition of the startup process and the definition related to the screen display in the business skeleton template 122 are read to generate the input screen (step S31), and similarly the definition related to the header part of the sales slip is read. Then, the header part is processed (step S32). Next, the definition related to the detail part in the business skeleton template 122 is read and the detail part processing is performed for all the details (steps S33 and S34). Similarly, the definition related to the counting part is read and the processing of the counting part is performed. As a process based on the definition of the end-time process or the like (step S35), it is determined whether to return to step S32 or end depending on the presence or absence of the next header (step S36).

  Further, in the above processing, when a search from the business information in the business DB 128 is performed on the item of the header part G1 (slip number, customer code in the example of FIG. 6), it is inserted into the business skeleton template 122. Based on the definition of the item template (see FIG. 4), as shown in FIG. 10, processing by the startup event control function, processing by the header part property control function, and processing by initialization definition are performed (steps S41 to S43). ) As the input control, a process based on the focus acquisition time process definition and a focus acquisition time control function are performed (steps S44 and S45).

Next, it is determined whether or not the input is normal (step S46). If the input is normal, the value change process definition and its function, that is, the display process of the input / output unit G4, is performed as the screen control (step S46). S47, S48), processing by substitution definition is performed as data control (step S49), business information input / output processing with the business DB 128 is performed by input / output interface definition (step S50), and processing by focus loss processing is performed. Once done (step S52), the process ends. On the other hand, if the input is not normal, the process according to the error occurrence process definition is performed as the screen control and the process ends (step S51).
However, when an operation that prompts input again is described in the process definition at the time of occurrence of an error, it is possible to perform control such that input is performed again without shifting from input control of the corresponding item.

  For example, the information processing apparatus 1 simply creates an execution definition related to sales slip input by applying items, and the business information in the business DB 128 is used when the execution engine 111 performs business processing related to sales slip input based on the execution definition. Can be used. The processing described above is based on the execution definition related to sales slip input. However, in the execution definition based on the business skeleton template 122 and each template in other functions, the processing according to the definition is performed. Needless to say.

  In the present embodiment, the information processing apparatus 1 has been described as an information device such as a PC. However, as shown in FIG. 10 illustrating the case where the present invention is applied to a system, a LAN (Local Area Network) or the Internet is illustrated. The information processing system 101 by the server 2 and the terminal 3 connected to the communication network N may be used. In this case, processing equivalent to that of the control device 11 described above is performed by the server 2 including the storage device 12, and operations related to business processing and output are performed by the terminal 3 including the display device 13, the input device 14, and the printing device 16. The execution engine 111 may be executed by either the server 2 or the terminal 3. In addition, the terminal 3 may be configured by a plurality of terminals such as client terminals 3a, 3b, and 3c.

  Further, although the present embodiment has been described in a format in which business processing is performed by an interpreter, the control device 11 may be in a format in which an object code is generated and the business processing is performed by executing the object code. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 11 exemplifying a format for executing the business process by executing the object code, the control device 11 replaces the execution engine 111 after creating the execution definition described above (step S3). The compiler is executed to create a program source by generating a program based on the execution definition (step S4), the program source is compiled to generate a business program (step S5), and business processing is performed with the business program. (Step S6).

  As described above, when the information processing apparatus 1 generates the execution definition in which the business process is defined based on the business skeleton template 122 and each template, the input / output interface is defined from the definition content of the item template 123 in step S2. By doing so, it is not necessary for the user to define the input / output of the business DB 128, and troublesome work can be omitted.

  Further, in step S2, if the same item is defined in the DB processing template 125, the input interface can be defined based on the same item. For example, the DB processing template 125 prepared by the supplier is utilized to store the business DB 128. You can define input and output.

  In addition, since the input / output interface can be defined based on the interface information generation table 130, the input / output interface can be defined under the conditions defined in advance as the program specifications.
