Upgrade the method for the title of storage device
Technical field
The invention relates to a kind of method of more newname, and particularly relevant for a kind of method of upgrading the title of storage device.
Background technology
Along with the progress of science and technology, electronic product makes rapid progress, and is towards providing lighter and handier product easily to develop invariably.More and more with a Products Development manufacturer, price competition is more and more fierce, thereby the market of personal digital assistant product also generalizes thereupon.The use of personal digital assistant product be we can say in the daily life that is deep into many people, and the necessity in becoming many people's work and living.The personal digital assistant product can be described as the computer system of pouch-type in simple terms.Therefore, next, just use the technology of computer system that previous technology is described.
In computer system, after the installation of hardware, do not represent this hardware just can in system, bring into play function, all also need the setting of software systems aspect usually.The pairing driver of these software systems is installed, and is understood settings such as the employed every resource of this hardware, can allow hardware bring into play function attentively.Software systems are wanted and can be linked up with hardware, must understand information, command format that hardware receives, and like this, software systems could be prepared suitable data formats according to the ability of hardware, so that allow hardware can understand the needed function of software systems; And therefore the software systems program also can bring into play hardware ability completely, finishes the execution of whole procedure.For the software systems program, if come call function in the design software system at hardware, have two kinds of possibilities so, the one, software systems must design a cover program at various different hardware, are an extremely negative challenging job to the programmer like this; Second situation is that hardware all is designed to the same specification, receives the same data, instruction, and the result is that the progress of hardware is slow, and renewal generation upon generation of also all must be notified program design company in advance and be write new program again.Certainly, no matter be any situation, not we find pleasure in the result who sees, therefore in order to address this problem, and produced the notion of driver.
Driver can be described as the communication bridge between computer software system and the hardware.This title is being represented the driving force of this class method for hardware.In computer system, in order to link different hardware of all kinds, coordinate wherein action and move instruction, data, must be by the interface of software systems, help general operation system (Operating System) and application program and link hardware, this is the most important role that plays the part of of driver just.Usually driver is that manufacturer by hardware develops, software systems then define the software systems interface that this operating system of cover can receive, at this moment the manufacturer of hardware just can be at this one deck software systems interface, design driven program and information is converted to required instruction of hardware and information effectively.And when the user selects this hardware for use and uses this operating system, just driver can be installed to operating system, become the part that the basic software and hardware of computer is linked up.
In addition; operating system is exactly to be responsible for administering the software systems of whole low order operation in computer; it can be loaded in the system earlier behind launch computer usually; and the computer operation of these low orders is handled in the transmission of the communication and coordination of the management of the execution of application program, archives, hardware, information, all is to be responsible for by operating system.Because the design of operating system, the designer of application program does not just need the worry coordination and the processing of low order operation, as long as and be absorbed in operating system and link up, require operating system to help.Operating system also can be said so behind the system boot, the base program of the every big or small affairs of disposal system.If illustrate with hierarchy, operating system institute role is between hardware and application program, provide the bridge between various application programs and the hardware, so operating system the use and the calling of hardware must be well understood to, such role can be played the part of.
In computer system, (Plug and Play PnP), allows operating system can recognize initiate hardware easily to the function of the plug and play that everybody is known exactly, carries out the setting of the driver of this hardware, allows hardware be started and plays a role.But when using the function of plug and play, the title of storage device all is the standard title that is provided by manufacturer usually.Such title can't show one's own exclusive characteristic.With the personal digital assistant product is in order to meet everyone different demand, to represent everyone demand of different characteristic and disagree.According to disclosed data now, be applicable to as yet at present on the personal digital assistant product, upgrade the correlation technique content of method of the title of storage device.
Summary of the invention
In view of this, the present invention proposes a kind of method of upgrading the title of storage device.The present invention be to use set up one upgrade dynamically link file and one more newer driver reach the initial method that dynamically links file and initial driving program of generation.The initial title of using storage device is updated to the defined more newname of user.Wherein upgrade and dynamically link file and newer driver more in correspondence with each other; Initial dynamically binding file and initial driving program are in correspondence with each other.
For reaching above-mentioned and other purpose, the present invention proposes a kind of method of upgrading the title of storage device.This method of upgrading the title of storage device is applicable to the personal digital assistant product.Upgrade in the method for title of storage device at this, its default environmental background is in some personal digital assistant products, to contain an initial parameter.And this initial parameter is being noted down the initial title of the storage device that points to an initial dynamically binding file.And this initial file that dynamically links has one and its corresponding initial driving program.Method of the present invention is, sets up a more newer driver at first earlier, and this is more noting down more newname by the defined storage device of user in the newer driver the inside.Then, can set up one and upgrade dynamically binding file, wherein, this newly-established renewal dynamically links file and above-mentioned more newer driver existence relation in correspondence with each other.At last, the initial name change that storage device is original is newname more, wherein, this more newname point to upgrade and dynamically link file.
Described according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, if when the renewal name change of storage device is initial title, can allow the title of storage device recover to become original initial title.In addition, upgrade that to link dynamically that file can be stored on the personal digital assistant product then be duplicate instructions in the implementing procedure that relies in the operating system.If set up a more newer driver, this more newer driver be the more newer driver that contains under the more newname of user definition.Then when this more newer driver set up finish after, can go initial driving program is originally override.In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the storage device of being mentioned can be a hard disk.
Comprehensive the above, the present invention is the more newname according to the storage device of user's definition, more newer driver and one upgrade and dynamically link file to set up one.Then newly-established more newer driver and renewal are dynamically linked file replacement initial driving program and initially dynamically link file.So, the initial title of storage device is with regard to the renewable more newname that becomes by user's definition.So the user can change the title of the storage device of personal digital assistant product according to oneself hobby.

Embodiment
Communication between application program and the hardware mainly is that (Basic InputOutput System BIOS) is connected with this two layer interface of operating system by Basic Input or Output System (BIOS).Having some basic unit's functions in the program must go to the call operation system to provide service to finish by application program.But operating system is for the hardware requirement of low order the time, and at this moment the function and instruction under can not direct access hardware must obtain the service of software systems indirectly by the Basic Input or Output System (BIOS) program.Therefore between hardware and operating system, normally move in the information translation of carrying out with another layer interface by Basic Input or Output System (BIOS).Under such framework, we substitute wherein arbitrary layer content arbitrarily by a unified interface standard.That is to say, when wherein arbitrary layer program version evolution or when changing, because the interface standard that provides has homogeny, so these upgrade the action of changing, and can't have influence on the last allomeric function of total system.But; usually having part of service or instruction in the operating system is can be not by the information of Basic Input or Output System (BIOS) with regard to direct access hardware; for instance; the just frequent instruction of using this class of many Games Software systems is to improve the usefulness of program, and still this practice can reduce the compatibility of original design in the Basic Input or Output System (BIOS).For specific use, for example processing of figure, audio also develops the common specification that makes new advances gradually at present.The service that utilizes software systems interfaces such as driver to reach information translation then is the another kind of service architecture outside the Basic Input or Output System (BIOS).Among the present invention, the information translation between hardware (storage device) and software systems (operating system) is to adopt by driver to be responsible for.Again, operating system and driver are by the next mutual transitional information of logining of log file.
Please refer to Fig. 1, it illustrated is the process block diagram of a preferred embodiment of method that upgrades the title of storage device according to the present invention.This method of upgrading the title of storage device is to be applicable to the personal digital assistant product.Upgrade in the method for title of storage device at this, at first, set up a more newer driver, this more includes the more newname (as step s103) of storage device in the newer driver.And in the present embodiment, this more newer driver can go to cover initial driving program (as step s106) originally.At last, the personal digital assistant product is carried out start again, by re-executing the title (as step s109) that driver resets storage device.In addition, in preferred embodiment of this method, foregoing storage device can be the various forms of hard disks that are applicable on the digital assistants product.
As a rule, if when the installation of hardware makes a mistake, as long as check and reinstall carefully, in principle can very fast queueing problem.But, if software systems such as driver are set when wrong, usually can make the user feel confused endlessly, and most ofly need cost just have way to solve for a long time.Because the level of software system design is common and user's distance is considerably remote.Therefore how getting rid of the mistake on the software systems such as driver, or change and revise at setting section, all is a big problem.Therefore, though the foregoing description can be changed the title of storage device fast, can produce the problem that is difficult for returning back to virgin state.
For fear of this kind problem, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, provide a kind of function that the title of storage device can be returned back to the standard title that manufacturer provides.Just because of this, the problem that the present invention has avoided causing because of the driver settings mistake storage device of hardware to use, the standard title that the title of storage device can be returned to manufacturer fast, simply and be provided allows the user avoid unnecessary trouble.
A preferred embodiment in the present invention, what please refer to that Fig. 2 illustrates is the translation interface process flow diagram of one of method preferred embodiment that upgrades the title of storage device.At first need set up earlier one more newer driver 215 be used for replacing in the log file initial driving program 209 of putting down in writing the title of storage device 218 originally.Next, then be to set up a dynamic file 212 that links of renewal to be used for replacing initial dynamic binding file 206.This upgrades, and dynamically to link file 212 are dynamic binding files that more newer driver 215 that the title of the storage device imported according to the user changes is set up.Afterwards, the renewals under the more newer driver that will do to change again 215 dynamically link under operating system 203 window directories that file 212 is copied to the personal digital assistant product.At last, after the personal digital assistant product is restarted in the start of implementation software, an initial title that has just replaced script by the defined more newname of user.
Though the present invention discloses as above with a preferred embodiment; right its is not in order to limit the present invention; anyly have the knack of this operator; without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention; when can doing a little change and retouching, so the present invention's protection domain attached claims person of defining after looking is as the criterion.
