Description

用于实现多应用程序标签和标签集的系统和方法
参考“序列列表”,表格,或附属提交在计算机光盘上的计算机程序列表.
不可适用
背景技术
本发明总体上涉及数据库,具体而言,涉及创建和显示用于在多成员组和/或多申请数据库系统里使用的顾客标签和标签集对象的系统和方法。
在多成员组数据库系统里,诸如使用多成员组结构的salesforce.com服务,其中顾客组织(即成员组)共享储藏在逻辑数据库里的应用程序、数据和数据库资源。所述数据库表本身通常被共享。例如,在数据模型里的每个实体通常包含为每个成员组区别行的organization_id列。在成员组的上下文里的所有查询和数据操作在这个(索引)organization_id列上过滤来确保适当的安全和虚拟私有数据库的外形。在salesforce.com系统里,例如使用这个策略为顾客显示诸如帐号、联系人、引导和机会等标准条目实体。
然而,顾客希望除已经提供的标准对象和标准应用以外,可能希望添加他们自己定义的对象和应用程序到所述系统。在传统客户机/服务器应用程序里,其中顾客具有它自身的物理数据库,添加自定义对象通常是通过对照所述数据库的DDL(数据定义语言)来创建新物理模式表格和列来实现的。在诸如salesforce.com服务的在线多成员组数据库系统里,因为各种原因,这种方法是支持不住的。例如,因为数据库系统具有大量成员(例如大约1,000或10,000或更多成员),所有期望方案的合并将覆盖底层的数据字典目录(例如Oracle词典)。此外,所有这种方案对象的维护对于DBA(数据库管理员)将是几乎不可能的负担。此外,当前关系数据库不够为组织支持在线DDL(在高度并行处理系统里)以保持逻辑独立。具体来讲,由一个组织的方案的创建可以为所有其它不可接受延迟的顾客锁定应用程序。
2004年4月2日提出的美国专利申请序号为10/817,161、标题为“在多成员组数据库系统里的顾客实体和字段(Custom Entities and Fields in a Multi-Tenant Database System)”,其在此处通过参考其全部被采用,公开了用于创建和自定义诸如实体和字段的对象的系统和方法。在其中提供的系统和方法提出一种弹性方法来在固定物理模式里存储变量方案数据以便克服以上所述以及其它问题。
然而,除提供创建诸如实体和字段的顾客数据库对象的能力以外,还希望提供允许用户容易和便利地在用户或用户群之中共享这种标准和自定义对象以及应用程序的共享模式。所述共享模式应该允许用户创建提供用户访问到各种目标以及应用程序元件的顾客视图。这种共享模式也应该为单个用户提供自定义模型的单个视图的能力,以便向用户提供更方便、便于使用者操作的数据库和应用程序用户接口环境。
发明内容
本发明提供一种新的共享模式,其允许用户容易地并便利地在用户或用户群之中创建和共享标准以及自定义数据库对象、以及应用程序。
根据本发明,所述共享模式提供允许用户创建以及自定义定义了对象和字段、标准对象和字段、以及应用程序之间的关系的标签和标签集的系统和方法。可视标签表示进入应用程序的元件或进入数据库对象的用户接口。标签的选择提供到由所述标签表示的应用程序的对象或元件的用户访问。标签集是一组关系标签,其像一个单元一样工作来提供应用程序功能。可以定义新标签和标签集以及可以自定义标签集视图以便最终用户可以容易并便利地在由所显示的标签和标签集视图表示的各种对象和应用程序元件之间转换。依照此方式,标签和标签集可以用作用于在诸如请求的基于网络的主机应用环境的多个应用环境里,在对象之间和在应用程序之间切换的装置。此外,通过使用简档,标签集的创建者或其它具有适当权限的用户可以定义哪个用户能看见并使用标签集定义,并由此哪个用户被允许访问在标签集定义里的标签提供访问的自定义对象和应用程序。
参考说明书的其余部分,包括附图和权利要求书,将了解本发明的其他特征和优势。下面参考附图详细说明本发明的其它特征和优势以及本发明各种实施例的结构和操作。在所述附图中,相同的附图标记指示相同的或功能上类似的元件。

具体实施方式
图1举例说明了在其中可以使用多成员组数据库系统的环境。如图1中所示那样(在图2里更详细),任何用户系统12能通过具有多成员组数据库系统(MTS)16的网络14相互作用。那些用户系统12的用户可以是在不同容量里的用户以及特定的用户系统12的容量可以完全地由用于当前用户的权限确定。例如,其中推销员使用特定的用户系统12来与MTS 16交互,那些用户系统具有分配给那些推销员的容量。然而,虽然管理员使用那个用户系统与MTS 16交互,那个用户系统具有分配给那个管理员的容量。由此,根据用户的权限水平,在访问和更改应用程序和数据库信息,包括标签以及标签集定义和简档信息方面,不同用户将具有不同的能力。
网络14可以是LAN(局域网),WAN(广域网),无线网络,点到点网络,星形网络,令牌环网,集线器网络或其它结构。  因为目前正在使用的最通用网络类型是TCP/IP(传输控制协议和网际协议)网络,诸如通常被称为具有大写″I″的“Internet(因特网)”的全局网际网络,因此其将在此处的许多示例里使用。然而,应该理解的是,虽然TCP/IP是当前推荐的协议,但本发明使用的网络没有如此限制。
用户系统12使用TCP/IP与MTS 16通信,以及在较高网络级使用其它通用网际协议来通信,诸如HTTP,FTP,AFS,WAP等等。举例来说,使用HTTP时,用户系统12包括通常称为“浏览器”的HTTP客户端用于从在MTS 16的HTTP服务器发送和接收HTTP消息。这种HTTP服务器可以实现为在MTS 16和网络14之间的专用网络接口,但也可以使用或改为其它技术。在一些实现方式里,在MTS 16和网络14之间的接口包括负载共享功能,诸如循环的HTTP请求分配器,来平衡负载并在多个服务器上均匀地分配输入的HTTP请求。优选的是,多个服务器的每个有权访问MTS的数据,至少就访问服务器的用户而言是这样。
在优选的方面,图1中示出的系统实现基于网页的自定义关系管理(CRM)系统。例如,在一个方面中,MTS 16可以包括配置为实现并执行CRM软件应用程序,以及为用户系统12和从用户系统12提供相关数据,代码,表格,网页以及其他信息,并存储到与数据库系统相关的数据、对象和网页内容中,以及从与数据库系统相关的数据、对象和网页内容中检索。利用多成员组系统,成员组数据被更好地设置以便一个成员组的数据保持独立于其它成员组的数据,以便一个成员组不具有对另一个的数据的访问,除非这种数据被明确地共享。然而,应该知道系统16还可以执行不同于CRM应用程序或除CRM应用程序以外的应用程序。例如系统16可以为包括CRM应用程序的多个主机应用程序提供成员组访问。
用于MTS 16的元件的一个配置在图1中示出了,包括网络接口20,用于成员组数据的储存器22,用于可访问MTS 16以及可能多个成员组的系统数据的储存器24,以及用于执行MTS 16的各个功能的程序代码26,以及用于执行MTS系统进程和具体成员组处理的进程空间28,诸如作为应用主机服务一部分的运行应用程序。
如图1显示的一些元件包括传统的公知的在此不需详述的元件。例如,每个用户系统12可以包括台式个人计算机,工作站,膝上型电脑,PDA,便携电话或任何允许WAP的设备或任何其它能够直接或间接地连接到因特网或其它网络连接的计算设备。用户系统12通常运行HTTP客户端,例如浏览程序,诸如微软公司的Internet ExplorerTM浏览器,美国Netscape公司的NavigatorTM浏览器,Opera的浏览器,或在便携电话、PDA或其他的无线设备等等的情况下是允许WAP的浏览器。允许用户系统12的用户(CRM系统的预订者)经由网络14访问、处理和浏览信息、页面和MTS 16可以利用的应用程序每个用户系统12通常包括一个或多个用户接口设备,诸如键盘,鼠标,触摸屏,笔等等,用于与由在显示器(例如监视屏,LCD显示器等等)上的浏览器提供的图形用户界面(GUI)连同由MTS 16或其它系统或服务器提供的页面、表格、应用程序以及其他信息交互。例如,用户接口设备可用于选择标签和标签集并另外允许用户与此处所述的各个GUI页面交互。
如上所述,本发明适用于与因特网一起使用,其指的是特定的全局网际网络。然而,应该理解的是,可以使用除了因特网的其它网络,诸如内联网,外联网,虚拟专用网络(VPN),基于非TCP/IP的网络,任何LAN或WAN等等。
根据一个实施例,每个用户系统12和所有它的组件是使用应用程序可配置的操作者,诸如浏览器,包括使用诸如英特尔奔腾处理器等等的中央处理单元运行的计算机代码。同样地,MTS 16(和MTS的附加实例,其中存在一个以上)和所有它们的组件可以是使用包括使用诸如英特尔奔腾处理器等等的中央处理单元或多个处理器单元运行的计算机代码的应用程序可配置的操作者。此处所述的用于运行和配置MTS 16来互相通信并处理网页、应用程序以及其它数据和媒体内容的计算机代码优选被下载和存储在硬盘上,但整个程序代码或它的部分也可以存储在任何其他的易失的或非易失性存储器介质或众所周知的设备中,诸如ROM或RAM,或提供在任何能够存储程序代码的介质上,诸如光盘(CD)介质,数字通用盘(DVD)介质,软盘等等。此外,整个程序代码或它的部分可以是从软件源传输和下载,例如经由因特网,或从另一个众所周知服务器传输或下载,或使用任何众所周知的通信介质和协议(例如TCP/IP,HTTP,HTTPS,以太网等等),经由任何其它众所周知的传统网络连接(例如外联网,VPN,LAN等等)传输。同样将知道,用于执行本发明各方面的计算机代码可以以任何可以在服务器或服务器系统上执行的程序设计语言实现,例如以C语言,C++,HTML,任何其它标记语言,Java,JavaScript,诸如VBScript的任何其它命令式语言程序,和许多其它众所周知的编程语言。
根据一个实施例,每个MTS 16被配置为向用户系统12提供网页、表格、应用程序、数据和媒体内容来支持作为MTS 16的成员组的用户系统12的访问。这样,MTS 16提供安全机制来保持每个成员组的数据独立,除非该数据是共享的。如果使用一个以上MTS,他们可以是位于互相接近的位置(例如在位于单个建筑物或校园的服务器场里),或他们可以是分布在彼此很远的位置(例如,位于城市A的一个或多个服务器和位于城市B的一个或多个服务器)。正如此处使用的那样,每个MTS可以包括一个或多个逻辑和/或物理连接的、本地分配或跨越一个或多个地理位置分配的服务器。此外,术语“服务器”意欲包括包含处理硬件和进程空间,和关联的存储系统和在现有技术里众所周知的数据库应用程序(OODBMS或RDBMS)的计算机系统。还应该理解的是,“服务器系统”和“服务器”在此经常是可互换地使用。同样地,此处所述的数据库可以实现作为单个数据库,分布式数据库,分布式数据库的集合,具有冗余在线或离线备份或其它冗余的数据库等等,并可以包括分布式数据库或存储网络和相关的处理智能。
图2更详细的举例说明了MTS 16的元件和各种互连。在此例子中,该网络接口实现为一个或多个HTTP应用服务器100。此外示出的是包括单个成员组进程空间104,系统数据库106,成员组数据库108和成员组管理程序空间110的系统进程空间102。成员组数据库108可以被被分成单个成员组存储区域112,其可以是物理排列或逻辑排列。在每个成员组存储区域112内,用户储存器114可以同样地分配给每个用户。
可以理解每个应用服务器100通过不同的网络链接,可以通信地连接如系统数据库106和成员数据库108的数据库系统。例如,一个服务器1OO1可以通过因特网14连接,另一个服务器100N-1可以通过直接网络链路连接,以及另一个服务器100N可以由不同网络连接连接。传输控制协议以及网际协议(TCP/IP)是推荐的用于在服务器100和数据库系统之间通信的协议,然而对于本领域技术人员显而易见的是可以根据使用的网络互连,使用其它传输协议来优化系统。
在优选的方面,每个应用服务器100被配置为处理任何用户/组织请求。因为能够为任何原因随时从服务器库添加和删除服务器是所希望的,因此优选的是,对于用户和/或组织到特定的应用服务器100没有服务器亲合力。因此在一个实施例中,实现负载平衡功能(例如F5 Big-IP负载平衡器)的接口系统(未示出)是通信地连接在服务器100和用户系统12之间,来分配请求到服务器100。在一个方面中,负载平衡器使用最少连接算法来路由用户请求到服务器100。此外可以使用其它负载平衡算法的示例,诸如循环复用和观测响应时间。例如,在某些方面,来自相同用户的三个连续请求可以命中三个不同服务器,以及来自不同用户的三个请求可以命中相同服务器。依照此方式,MTS 16是多成员组,在其中MTS 16处理跨越不同的用户以及组织的不同对象、数据以及应用程序的储存和对其的访问。
作为存储器的一个例子,一个成员组可以是雇用销售人员的公司,其中每个推销员使用MTS 16来管理它们的销售处理。由此,用户可以保留接点数据,前导数据,自定义后续检查数据,工作数据,目标和进展数据等等对于那个用户的个人销售处理所有可利用的数据(例如在成员组数据库108里)。在优选MTS结构里,由于所有这种数据和用于存取、浏览、更改、报告、传输计算等等的应用程序可以保留并由仅仅可以进行网络访问的用户系统访问,用户可以根据许多不同用户系统的任何一个管理他或者她的销售工作和周期。例如,如果推销员正在访问顾客,并且该顾客在它们的休息室里可以因特网访问,该推销员可以在等待顾客到达该休息室的时候获得该顾客的关键的更新。
虽然不考虑每个用户的雇主,每个用户的销售数据可以是独立于其它用户的销售数据,但对于也就是成员组的给定组织,一些数据可以是共享的或可由多个用户或所有销售人员访问全机构的数据。  由此,可以有一些由MTS 16管理的数据结构,其配置在成员组级,而其它数据结构可以在用户级管理。因为MTS可以支持多个包括可能竞争者的成员组,该MTS应该具有保持数据、应用程序和应用程序使用分离的安全协议。此外,因为许多成员组将选择访问MTS而不是保留他们自己的系统,冗余、可用时间和备份是更多关键的功能并必须在MTS里实现。
除用户指定数据和成员指定数据以外,MTS 16也可以保留由多个成员组可用的系统级数据或其它数据。这种系统级数据可以包括行业报告,新闻,邮件等等,其可在成员组之中共享。
在某些方面,客户端系统12与应用服务器100通信来从MTS 16请求和更新系统级和成员组级数据,其需要到数据库系统106和/或数据库系统108的一个或多个查询。MTS 16(例如在MTS 16里的应用服务器)自动地生成一个或多个设计成能访问所希望的信息的SQL说明(SQL查询)。
每个数据库通常可以作为对象集合浏览,诸如逻辑表集合,包含放进预定类别的数据。一个“表格”是一个数据对象的表示,以及在此使用来简化根据本发明的对象和自定义对象的概念描述。应该理解的是,“表格”以及“对象”在此可互换地使用。每个表格通常在可浏览的略图里包含逻辑上设置为列或字段的一个或多个数据类别。表格的每个行或记录包含用于由字段定义的每个类别的数据的实例。例如,CRM数据库可以包括一个表格,其描述具有用于基本联系信息,诸如名称,地址,电话号码,传真号码等等的字段的顾客。另一个表格可以描述包括用于诸如顾客、产品、销售价格、日期、等等信息的字段的购货单。在一些多成员组数据库系统里,标准实体表格可以提供给所有成员组使用。对于CRM数据库应用程序,这种标准实体可以包括用于帐号、联系人、提示以及机会数据的表格,每个包含预定义的字段。
根据一个方面,用户可以设计其自定义应用程序,包括自定义目标,自定义标签,自定义字段和自定义页面版面。2004年4月2日提出的美国专利申请序号为10/817,161、标题为“在多成员组数据库系统里的顾客实体和字段(CustomEntities and Fields in a Multi-Tenant Database System)”,通过引用其全部被预先采用,公开了用于创建和自定义诸如实体和字段的对象的系统和方法。使用本发明的技术,可以创建和自定义标签以及标签集来定义自定义对象和字段、标准对象和字段,以及应用程序之间的关系,以及追踪有关的数据。
自定义标签和标签集
根据本发明,标签通常表示进入应用程序的元件或进入数据库对象的用户接口。标签的选择提供到由所述标签表示的应用程序的对象或元件的用户访问。标签集是一组有关的标签,其像一个单元一样工作来提供应用程序功能。本发明允许新建标签和标签集被定义并允许标签集视图被自定义以便最终用户可以容易并便利地在由所显示的标签和标签集表示的各种对象和应用程序元件之间转换。在一个方面中,例如,标签和标签集可用作用于在诸如请求的基于网络的主机应用环境的多个应用环境里,在对象之间和在应用程序之间切换的装置。
在一个实施例中,标签集包括名称,商标,和标签的有序列表。通常在图形用户界面(GUI)环境里浏览标签集,例如使用在用户的计算机系统上运行的浏览器应用程序。例如,图3举例说明了标签集的一部分GUI视图的示例。如图3所示,当前选择的标签集100包括商标110和标签集选择器120,当多个标签集对于用户的选择是可用的时候,优选只包括一个。标签集选择器120在某些方面包括下拉列表或拾取列表,其在提供多个标签集的时候可利用,并且用来在可用的标签集之间转换。当用户改变选择的时候,基于选择的标签集定义改变显示的标签,标签的顺序和“新建xxx”条。
在图3中示出的标签集表示由例如MTS 16的主机系统提供的标准标签集定义。标准标签集是预定义的标签集合,例如从源中输入,该源提供容量(例如模板容量)以确定哪个标签、标签集和数据是最初准备给成员组或用户的。标准标签集的一个示例是由salesforce.com网站通过它的预订CRM服务提供的。使用这些标准标签集,给用户提供对标准表格或诸如帐号、联系人、提示和机会实体的实体的访问。例如,在图3中示出了表示salesforce.com帐号,联系人,提示和机会实体及其他的标签。作为另一例子,salesforce.com此外提供创建自定义实体以及用于标准实体的自定义字段的能力。利用本发明,用户可以创建包括表示自定义实体和字段的标签的标签集。
根据一个方面,用户可以创建自定义标签集和自定义标签。优选的是,基于存储的他们的权限,只有管理员级用户具有标签集创建功能。此外,用户可以自定义他们的标签集视图,包括显示的标签的顺序和标签集里的哪个标签被显示。为允许用户便利地组织他们的标签,如果希望,每个标签可以出现在任何或所有标签集中。优选的是,任何用户可以编辑标签组合和顺序,但不能重命名或更换商标;标签集名称和商标选择优选只有管理员级功能。例如,管理员可以创建新标签集和自定义存在的标签集。对于所有标签集,管理员可以指定哪个标签被包括,以及签应该显示的顺序。为特定组织的标签集,管理员还可以指定名称以及提供随意的商标。对于由主机系统提供的标准标签集,例如由salesforce.com提供的标签集,诸如Salesforce.com以及Supportforce.com标签集,优选的是管理员不能改变所述名称或商标,管理员也不可以删除该标准标签集。优选的是,任何用户可以完全地自定义他们的具有浏览权限的所有标签集的视图。对于只有能访问单个标签集的用户,在一个方面中,这些用户不能看见标签集选择器120。作为以下将论述,用户可以看见的标签是以用户的权限级为基准的。用于每个标签集的简档允许管理员级用户设定标签和标签集的简档级可视性,例如以便在某些权限级的用户群被限制浏览某些标签或标签集,因此同时限制访问或浏览由所限制标签或标签集引用的特定对象和应用程序。
因此,在一方面,标签组可以被认为一个过滤器,其覆盖一个已存在的简档级标签视觉定义之上。管理员设定包括在每个标签集滤过器中的默认标签,但每个用户可以忽略----他们不能改变的唯一事情是标签集名称和商标。最后结果是标签集十分的轻便和灵活。没有强制用于标签集的特定装置;每个用户通常可以如他们所希望的使用标签集。
标签设定用户接口
图4根据一个实施例举例说明了包括标签集的示例性UI的各个方面。如图4所示,一部分屏幕(例如,每个屏幕的右上角位置,其中通常提供Setup(设置)、Help(帮助)和Training(顺序)、Logout(注销)以及其它链接)可以是有阴影的或者相反的是显著地显示来指示这个区段适用于(例如是不变的)所有应用程序。对于具有浏览一个以上标签集的权限的那些用户,这部分中也示出了标签集选择器120。如图所示,选择器120包括“S”商标,其在此例子中用来在请求操作系统上标志salesforce.com,以及拾取列表122,列举用户具有权限浏览的每个标签集。如图4b所示,当用户从拾取列表122选择标签集的时候,标签集的商标被显著地显示,例如在如图所示页面的人手的左上角位置。如果主机系统没有提供标签集,例如在此例子中,主机是salesforce.com,并且顾客提供商标(即所述标签集没有使用默认主机商标),那么另外提供的主机图形,诸如“powered by Customforce.com”图形,可以紧挨着所述注册显示在所述标语的右手侧面,如图4c所示。
依照由存储的标签集定义指定的顺序,所述标签(除Home标签之外)被替换为选择的标签集的标签。作为默认,Home标签被呈现为当前标签。“新建”条也被替换为用于创建涉及由在选择的标签集里的标签引用的那些对象的对象的链接列表。例如图4d所示,如果标签集包括下列标签:Zoos和Monkeys,那么所述“new(新建)”条将具有如下:New Zoo,New Monkey和Recycle Bin。在“new”条里的链接的顺序优选匹配在标签集里的标签的顺序,但没有必要如在图4c中看到的那样。
在一个方面中,为帮助用户理解标签集选择器120,当鼠标在“S”商标或者拾取列表122上盘旋的时候,将显示解释所述标签集的概念的工具框。
如果用户创建新对象或浏览现有对象,并且那个对象没有在选择的标签集里被引用,那么系统的行为优选不变,例如,与当浏览或创建不具有标签的新对象时发生的相同。即使那个对象在另一个所述用户的标签集里具有标签,优选选择的标签集没有改变。使用最近的项目列表时,优选列表没有按选择的标签集定义过滤。如果用户点击不具有在当前标签集里显示的标签的项目,将显示它的详细页面但不会显示它的标签。
图5根据一个方面示出了支持浏览标签的不同模式的“All Tabs(所有标签)”页面的示例。利用“View”下拉列表(拾取列表)选择模式。在一个模式里,通过选择“All Tabs”,按字母顺序显示用户能访问看到的所有标签。在另一个模式里,通过标签集以显示 顺序组合所述标签。如图所示,以显示顺序示出了用于标准salesforce.com标签集的标签。下拉列表允许用户选出标签集来显示。
图6示出了页面的示例,该页面提供用户完全地自定义每个标签集、指定哪个标签进入哪个标签集以及那些标签的顺序的能力。列在决斗列表上的标签包括用于所述用户的简档的没有隐藏的所有标签。如图6所示,用户利用“add”和“Remove”按钮可以指定哪个标签属于所选择的标签集。用户也可以利用“up”和“Down”按钮重排那些标签应该出现的顺序。用户优选只能够浏览他们具有权限来看到的标签,不考虑所述标签是否列在标签集上。
图7显示一个标签集视图列表页面的例子,根据一个方面,其允许用户创建和自定义标签集。具有适当权限的任何用户可以管理标签集,例如创建、删除、编辑等等。如图所示,视图列表优选包括包含用于每个可用的标签集的条目的可视的表格。每个条目示出了标签集名称和描述。如图所示,视图列表页面支持新建(New)动作以通过选择“New”按钮125来创建新建自定义标签集,支持编辑动作以通过选择编辑选择器126来编辑标签集,以及支持删除动作以通过选择删除选择器127来删除标签集。
选择新建按钮125启动标签集创建“向导”。图8根据一个方面示出了第一向导页面的示例。所述向导为用户提供输入框来输入标签集名称(标签)以及任意的描述。所述标签集名称大小优选限制为例如最大长度40个字符。自定义标签集优选不能以主机系统提供的标准标签集命名。例如,在salesforce.com提供主机系统的情况下,不能使用“Salesforce”,“Supportforce”以及“Customforce”(有或者没有“.com”)。优选标签集名称也不能包含HTML字符。
图9根据一个方面示出了第二向导页面的示例,其允许用户提供自定义商标。当已经在第一页面里的输入信息并且用户选择“下一步”的时候启动第二页面。如图9所示,用户可以提供用于新建标签集的商标(作为默认,诸如customforce.com商标的主机系统商标被预先填充)。在已经为系统识别或加载图像以后,如果图像大于预先确定大小(例如宽度:235像素;高度:55像素),可以按比例缩小或剪辑图像。比例将保留原始商标的纵横比。虽然优选.gif图像,但可以使用其它图像格式,诸如JPEG、位图及其他。
图10根据一个方面示出了第三向导页面的示例,其允许用户指定哪个标签属于新建标签集,以及他们将要显示的顺序。当用户在第二页面里选择“保存”的时候启动第三页面。如图10所示,用户利用“add”和“Remove”按钮可以指定哪个标签属于这个标签集。用户也可以利用“up”和“Down”按钮重排那些标签应该出现的顺序。用户优选只能够浏览他们具有权限来看到的标签,不考虑所述标签是否列在标签集上。
图11根据一个方面示出了第四向导页面的示例,其允许用户指定标签集的可见性。当用户在第三页面里选择“保存”的时候启动第四页面。如图11所示,用户为将可用的新建自定义标签集选择用户简档以及选择这个自定义标签集是否将是默认标签集。在一个方面中,用户能够利用如图所示的一系列可选复选框为每个用户简档指定标签集的可见性以及默认行为。
图12示出了标签集详细页面的示例,其为现有的标签集示出了细节。细节信息包括标签、描述、商标,包括的标签,“created by(由谁创建)”信息以及“last updated(最近更新)”信息。例如,通过从图7中示出的所有标签页面(All Tabs page)中选择标签集标记可以启动这个页面。如图12所示,用户也可以从这个页面选择编辑动作(Edit action)。
例如在图7或图12里,Edit(编辑)动作的选择启动向导,其几乎和由如上所述New(新建)动作启动的向导一致。然而,细节输入以及商标选择步骤对由例如是salesforce.com的主机系统提供的标准标签集是无效的。此外,最后的向导步骤优选包括允许用户指定任何改变是否应该忽略任何用户的个人定制的复选框。
图13显示了在用户选择删除动作的时候呈现的页面的示例。当选择的时候,用户被询问哪个其它标签集应该设定为用于那些用户的默认标签集,那些用户具有将要被删除被选择为默认标签集的标签集。因为标签集被有效地过滤,因此他们可以被删除而不影响所述简档标签可见性选择。标签的顺序优选恢复成当前在前标签集顺序方案(即在固定编码里的标准标签顺序,在创建里的自定义标签顺序)。
根据一个方面,用户也可创建自定义标签。图14根据一个方面示出了标签列表视图页面的示例,其允许用户创建并自定义标签。示出的查看列表优选包括包含用于如图所示的每个可用标签的条目的可见表格。每个条目示出了标签样式,描述。如图所示,查看列表页面支持新建(New)动作以通过选择“New”按钮来创建新建自定义标签集,支持编辑动作以通过选择编辑选择器来编辑现有标签,以及支持删除动作以通过选择删除选择器来删除现有标签。此外,优选只有管理员级用户能访问管理者标签。用户可以创建引用自定义对象的自定义对象标签,以及允许用户在窗口内嵌入外部网页应用程序以及内容的网页标签。
New(新建)按钮的选择启动标签创建“向导”。图15根据一个方面示出了第一标签创建向导页面的示例。这个向导为用户提供输入框来选择现有自定义对象的名称(或选择创建新建自定义对象)以及标签样式和任意的标签描述。
图16根据一个方面示出了第二标签创建向导页面的示例。当在第一页面里已经选择或输入信息并且用户选择“下一步”的时候启动第二页面。用户可以为将可用的新建自定义标签选择用户简档。在一个方面中,用户能够利用如图所示的一系列可选复选框为每个用户简档指定标签的可见性以及默认行为。
根据一个方面,如图17所示,为自定义对象标签和Web标签的用于New动作的向导添加了附加的最后一步。在此步骤中,用户指定在哪个标签集中的新建标签是可视的,以及这个新建标签是否应该附加到用户的现有个人定制里。
在一个方面,一个新的“标签集设置”部分加到每个简档对象,列出所有标签集,并为简档指定哪个用户可以看见该标签集,以及用户首次登录时(此后,当用户登录时选择的标签集优选为用户上次退出时选择的标签集)可以选择哪个标签集。如图19的简档编辑页面所示,标签集的可见性是由复选框指示的(因为用户可以具有对一个以上标签集的访问),但最初应该选择哪些标签集是由单选按钮指定(那里可以只有一个默认标签集)。图18示出了显示如在图19的简档编辑页面中产生的选择的细节的简档详细页面的示例。
服务器边操作以及数据模型定义
商标
在一个方面中,用户的标签集定义可以超越商标部件。由用户提供的图像优选是存储在文档里,例如在允许顾客存储任何他们想要的文档类型的文件存储器模块或机构里。例如,商标被存为文档,其然后由创建新建标签集的时候使用的向导引用。然后自动地生成HTMLIMG标签,其指向(通过URL)文献库机构里的商标。优选的是,在图像的矩形大小上设定了限制,否则用户通过发送例如巨大的.gif文件的较大图像来不利地影响UI。因此,在一个方面中,根据提供的图像大小,所述图像可以被剪切或调节。例如,如果图像在高度上大于55像素,以下示例将剪辑图像。
<div style=″position:absolute;height:55px;overflow:hidden;″>
<img border=0 src=″xxx.gif″>
</div>
标签选择器
在一个方面中,在每个简档里定义标签选择器中的可用值具有默认值。每个用户属于一个简档,其用来帮助简化一组用户的管理。所述默认值标签在用户登记到系统的时候使用。如果在用户的简档里只有一个标签集,用户不会看见所述选择器。在某些方面,会话cookie用来保留标签选择器120的当前选择直到用户退出。保存进入数据库的用户偏好是保留用户的选择的另一个方式。
多浏览器操作
即使用户开放两个(或更多)浏览器窗口来访问主机系统,优选为每个浏览器提供每个标签选择器的选择(即标签集选择)。在此情况下,它将希望共享相同会话的每个浏览器实例具有它自身的cookie。然而,没有容易的方式来生成特定的浏览器实例cookie id。在一个方面中,为解决这个情况,在标签选择器上的每个选择变化紧接着调用应用服务器来重新加载。当发生标签集选择的时候,会话cookie被设定并被送回所述服务器。然后可以再次设定所述会话cookie来确定所述值被正确地传递到所述服务器。
用户偏好
用户可以通过自定义哪些标签被放置在所述标签集里以及所述标签的顺序来编辑他们具有权限浏览的每个标签集。用户可以选择显示的标签优选不局限于当前的标签集,而是在存储的简档里定义的那些他们看得见的所有标签。然而标记为“Hidden(隐藏)”在用户的简档里的标签是不可选的。
设计
存储器内的数据结构
由于标签集选择器和标签被几乎每个页面引用,在一个方面中,标签集信息优选高速缓存在相关数据库表里。必要信息可以包括,例如1)每个标签集(W/标签阵列),2)标签集的集合(用于在简档里构造标签集选择器)以及3)用于用户偏好的TabSet的集合(主标签集的子集)。
标签集
每个标签集包含名称,描述,图像以及标签清单,没有默认值。这个信息不是专用于给定用户,但存在整个组织或成员组里,并被存储在在整个组织中共享(但不跨越组织共享)的数据库表格中。存在两个标签集类型:标准标签集和自定义标签集。标准标签集由例如salesforce.com的主机系统定义,并且用户对他们自定义标准标签集的能力是受限制的。
以下是有用的Java类定义和定义所述标签集数据结构的数据库表定义的示例:
class TabSetlnfo implements Serialixable
String id;
int type;//0:Custom,>0:Standard
String masterLabel;
String documentld;
String[]tabs;
在一个方面中,提供给成员组的最初的标签集是在模板里定义的,因此不同成员组可以从不同的标签集开始,并且那些标签集可以被配置为具有不同标签。
在一个方面中,每个用户被映射到一个“简档”,其为简档中的所有用户定义许可,包括标签集可视性。为管理这个信息,定义关系为具有默认值标志并被保存在数据库表里的TabSets列表:
ProfileInfo:
String[]tabSetlds;//array of TabSetlnfo IDs.
int defaultTabSetlndex;//index in tabSetlds
在一个方面中,因为用户还可以自定义他们的标签集,因此用户的定制被存储在数据库表中。
考虑API
除了通过网络浏览器提供标签集外,在某些方面,也可通过网络服务器(SOAP/HTFP)API提供标签集,并因此可通过其他客户端软件实现,包括离线浏览器,无线客户端等等。当译为Java的时候,一个有用的API示例如下:
public DescribeTabSetResult[] describeTabs () throws RemoteException,UnexpectedErrorFault;
应注意的是,结果是DescribeTabSetResult对象阵列,当译为Java的时候定义如下:
public class DescribeTabSetResult implements java.io.Serializable{
private java.lang.String label;
private java.lang.String logoUrl;
private boolean selected;
private com.sforce.soap.partner.DescribeTab[]tabs;
public DescribeTabSetResult (){
}
public java.lang.String getLabel(){
return label;
}
public java.lang.String getLogoUrl(){
return logoUrl;
}
public boolean isSelected(){
return selected;
}
public com.sforce.soap.partner.DescribeTab[]getTabs(){
return tabs;
}
public void setTabs(com.sforce.soap.partner.DescribeTab[]tabs){
thjs.tabs=tabs;
}
};
最后,这个分类包括对于DescribeTab对象列表的引用,其可以以如下Java定义:
public class DescribeTab implements java.io.Serializable{private boolean custom;
private java.lang.String label;
pfivate java.lang.String sobjectName;
pfivate java.lang.String url;
public DescribeTab(){
}
public boolean isCustom(){
return custom;
}
public java.lang.String getLabel(){
return label;
}
public java.lang.String getSobjectName (){
return sobjectName;
}
public java.lang.String getUrl(){
return url;
}
};
虽然已经通过示例和根据特定的实施例描述了本发明,应该理解的是,本发明不局限于所述公开的实施例。相反,它意在覆盖对于本领域技术人员显而易见的各种改良和类似结构。因此,附加权利要求书的范围应该符合较宽的解释以便包括所有这种改良和类似的结构。
