Hereinafter, will delete application programs from indirect storage unit 123, and renewal is used to manage the record of application program or deletes the unloading that this record is called application program.
Fig. 2 A is the table of example of the data structure of exemplary application program management information.
With reference to Fig. 2 A, application program management data 200 are stored in the platform unit 20.
The indications (ID) of data item 201 each application programs of expression, the ID in the data item 201 is unique in application program management data 200.
The title of data item 202 each application programs of expression.
The state of data item 204 each application programs of expression.Data item 204 has the value of " calling ", " stopping " or " deletion ".When platform unit 20 invokes application, data item 204 is set to " calling ".When platform unit 20 stopped application program, data item 204 was set to " stopping ".When 20 unloadings are during application programs from the platform unit, application program no longer appears in the data structure of Fig. 2 A.
The data layout of the user generated data that data item 205 expressions can pass through to represent in data item 201 application program is handled.The extension of using in the filename of user generated data is set to the value of data item 205.In data item 205, can store a plurality of values simultaneously.
According to first exemplary embodiment of the present invention, delegation's application program management data 200 are called record.In first exemplary embodiment, this record comprises data item 201, data item 202, data item 203, data item 204, data item 205 and data item 206.Each record expression is about the management information of an application program.In this manual, will use information to be called record by platform unit 20 with the management application program.
When new application program was installed, platform unit 20 added record to application program management data 200.When adding record, data item 202,203,205 and 206 is blank, and the value of data item 204 is " stopping ".At first, platform unit 20 generates the ID of new application program, and this ID is write in the data item 201 of the record that is added.Generate this ID so that its not with application program management data 200 in the data item 201 of other record repeat.
Then, but platform unit 20 based on come from the setter transmission and expression application name and application program the application information of deal with data, data are write in data item 202,205 and 206.
At last, platform unit 20 generates data management area and will represent that the data of data management area write in the data item 203.
When invokes application, platform unit 20 is updated to " calling " with data item 204.
When the user wanted to visit the user data of being managed by application-specific (user generated data), the user utilized user interface 124 to select these application-specific.For example, when the user wanted to visit user data by the copy application program management, " duplicating " button that the user touches in the display frame shown in Fig. 8 A was selected the copy application program.The user can be at the user data of visiting on the picture displayed by selecting by the copy application program management.Owing in the display frame of Fig. 8 A, only show the button corresponding, so the user can not visit the user data by the application program management of never call with invoked application program.
The user can not visit the user data by the application program management of unloading, because the application program of unloading is corresponding to " application program of never call ".
According to first exemplary embodiment of the present invention, can visit user data in order to make the user, the application's data directorial area that user data is moved to not unloading and installed by application program management to be unloaded.
User data hereinafter refers to, in response to the data of for example utilizing user interface 124 to use the user's of image processing system 1 instruction to be generated by the platform unit in the image processing system 1 20.Yet according to another exemplary embodiment, user data can refer to, only the data that generated by platform unit 20 in response to the current instruction that utilizes the user that user interface 124 sends unloading command.In this case, except in data item 601, adding document id and in data item 602, adding the data name, also add information 605 (not shown) that the user of the instruction that generates data is sent in expression in the record of each in following user data management information.
Fig. 3 is the process flow diagram of example that the processing of the unloading application program that according to the present invention first exemplary embodiment carried out by platform unit 20 is shown.
When receiving the instruction of unloading application program from the user, user interface 124 receives instruction to platform unit 20 notices.Processing shown in Figure 3 is carried out in response to this notice in platform unit 20.
In step S301, platform unit 20 stops destination application to be unloaded.Platform unit 20 switches to " stopping " with the state of application program from " calling ".If before step S301, stopped destination application to be unloaded, then skips steps S301.Platform unit 20 is based on the data item 204 of the state of expression application program, and determining to stop still is invokes application.
In step S302, platform unit 20 obtains the information about the data management area of destination application to be unloaded.Carry out obtaining by platform unit 20 (obtaining information in the data of its data item 203 from the record that is used for application program management data 200 destination application to be unloaded) about the information of data management area.
In step S303, platform unit 20 determines whether there is user generated data in the data management area of destination application.Should determine to generate platform unit 20 execution of data by search subscriber in data management area.If user generated data (among the step S303 for being) is determined to exist in platform unit 20 in step S303, then handle and enter step S304.If user generated data (being not among the step S303) is determined not exist in platform unit 20 in step S303, then handle skips steps S304 to step S310, enter step S311.
In step S304, platform unit 20 indicative user interfaces 124 show the application list of having installed.User interface 124 shows application program selection picture shown in Figure 4 in response to above-mentioned instruction.In the application list, show the application program (that is the application program of installation) of being managed as application program management data 200.
When the display application program listing, can only show the application-specific in all application programs of having installed.The application program that can handle by the user generated data of waiting to unload application program management shows as the first kind application program in the application-specific.Becoming the application program that can handle by the user generated data of waiting to unload application program management by conversion (format conversion) shows as the second class application program in the application-specific.All application programs except that the first kind and the second class application program all are excluded outside application-specific.Can determine whether comprise application program in the application-specific based on data item 205 and 206.
In step S305, user interface 124 application notification that the selection instruction with the user in the application program of tabulation is corresponding is given platform unit 20.
In step S306, platform unit 20 determine selection instruction that users send at mounted application program (hereinafter the selection instruction that the user is sent at application program be called the purpose application program) whether can handle about waiting to unload the user generated data of application program.Should determine whether be included in the purpose application's data item 205 (but deal with data) based on data layout about the user generated data of waiting to unload application program.If the purpose application programs are determined and can process user generate data (among the step S306 for being) that then processing enters step S309 in platform unit 20.If platform unit 20 is determined the purpose application program and can not process user be generated data (being not among the step S306), then handles and enter step S307.
In step S307, platform unit 20 determines that the purpose application programs whether can processing platform unit 20 can carry out the data layout (data layout that the format conversion of the user generated data by waiting to unload application program management produces) of format conversion to it.Should determine based on waiting whether unload application's data item 206 (convertible data) is included in the purpose application's data item 205 (but deal with data).
If platform unit 20 definite purpose application programs can not be handled convertible data (being not among the step S307) in step S307, then platform unit 20 utilizes user interface 124 demonstration expression purpose application programs can not handle the error message of convertible data, then, processing enters step S311.In this case, carry out unloading and mobile data not.
If platform unit 20 determines that the purpose application programs can handle convertible data (among the step S307 for being) in step S307, then in step S308, the data layout of platform unit 20 converting users generation data.Can only carry out the conversion of data layout by platform unit 20.Alternatively, if application program to be unloaded has translation function, then can use the conversion of the translation function execution data layout of application program.Under one situation of back, carry out conversion by the platform unit 20 of the translation function of calling the purpose application program.This makes and is converted into specific format by all user generated datas in the data management area of purpose application program management.Specific format refers to, but in the data item 205 of the conduct deal with data of purpose application program form expression and expression in the data item 206 of the convertible data of conduct of purpose application program.If the multiple switchable format of expression in data item 206 is then selected the at first form of registration.Alternatively, the user can utilize user interface 124 to select form.When finishing format conversion, handle entering step S309.
In step S309, platform unit 20 testing goal application's data directorial areas.Detection is carried out in platform unit 20 by 203 values of obtaining of the data item from the record of purpose application program.In step S310, platform unit 20 will move to the purpose application's data directorial area that detects among the step S309 about waiting the user generated data that unloads application program.
In step S311, platform unit 20 unloading application programs.In addition, 20 deleted representations of platform unit are by all data in the data item 203 of the data management area of application program management.As a result, deletion is defined as user generated data not, information (table of Fig. 6) and this application program that is used for managing this user generated data in step S307, to open data management area.In step S311, the record that is used to wait to unload application program is also deleted in platform unit 20 from the table of Fig. 2 A.
Deletion can not move to all user generated datas of purpose application program in first exemplary embodiment of the present invention.By contrast, according to second exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the deletion but stay irremovable user generated data.Compare with first exemplary embodiment,, do not delete user generated data explicitly with the unloading of corresponding application programs though consumed the capacity of indirect storage unit 123.
Yet the user can not visit about the user generated data of invoked application program not, unless take special measure.Therefore, in second exemplary embodiment, carry out search to invalid data.
The difference of second exemplary embodiment and first exemplary embodiment only is step S311.Describe the step S311 in second exemplary embodiment now in detail.Step S311 in second exemplary embodiment comprises the step from step S1201 to step S1203 among Figure 12.
With reference to Figure 12, in step S1201, whether platform 20 definite user generated datas are retained in is waited to unload in the application's data directorial area.Should determine identical with step 303.If user generated datas are determined and keep (among the step S1201 for being) that then processing enters step S1202 in platform unit 20.If platform unit 20 is determined user generated data and is not kept (being not among the step S1201), then handles and enter step S1203.If user generated data is moved and is not retained in the data management area in step S310, just do not exist if perhaps user generated data is original in data management area, then handle entering step S1203.
In step S1202, platform unit 20 unloading application programs.At first, 20 deleted representations of platform unit are by the partial data in the data item 203 of the data management area of application program management.Partial data refers to, and removes user generated data in the data item 203 of expression data management area and is used for all data the information (table of Fig. 6) of leading subscriber generation data.Specifically, 20 deletions of platform unit are as the application program and the necessary data that are provided with of this application program of operation of described partial data.Because as the deletion result, only there are user generated data and the information (table of Fig. 6) that is used for leading subscriber generation data to be retained in the data item 203 of expression data management area, so data management area needn't have the size before unloading.Thereby the size of the data management area of expression is reduced to and holds user generated data and be used for the information that leading subscriber generates data in data item 203.Then, platform unit 20 usefulness are represented the information of the address of the data management area that the process size reduces, and come the value of updating form registration according to the data item 203 of directorial area.Then, platform unit 20 value that will wait to unload the data item 204 in the record of application program switches to " deletion " (referring to document management application program in the equipment shown in Fig. 2 B).Switching to " deletion " feasible user generated data about application program becomes the target of the processing of the search invalid data of describing below with reference to Fig. 7.
In step S1203, platform unit 20 unloading application programs.Because step S1203 is identical with step S311 in first exemplary embodiment, so omit description here.
Fig. 5 illustration is by the example of the hierarchical structure of the data management area (by 203 expressions of the data item among Fig. 2 A) of platform unit 20 management.This hierarchical structure is built in the indirect storage unit 123.
First level comprises system region 501, application area 502 and user data area 505.
System region 501 comprises the base program that is used for operating platform unit 20 and image processor 12, various file, temporary file or the like of being provided with.
Application area 502 has second level of setting up thereon.Zone 503 and 504 is arranged on second level, stores the application program and the necessary data that are provided with that run application in zone 503 and 504.The zone of each application program on second level is the part of the data management area that generates when set up applications.
User data area 505 has second level of setting up thereon.(user generated data memory block) 506 and 507, zone is arranged on second level, stores the user generated data about each application program in zone 506 and 507.Each application program is used the zone on second level, stores the user generated data by utilizing this application program to generate.The zone also is used to store the management information about user data.The zone of each application program on second level is the part of the data management area that generates when set up applications.
Fig. 6 is an illustration about the table of the example of the data structure of the management information of the user generated data of managing in the directorial area of an application program.
Storage and leading subscriber data management information 600 on second level of the user data area 505 of each application program in the application's data directorial area.Owing to limit the form and the position of management information in data management area of user data management information 600 in advance, so platform unit 20 can access management information.For example, management information is stored in the place, first address of piece A in the zone 506 of user data area 505.
With reference to Fig. 6, the ID of data item 601 each bar user data of expression, the ID in the data item 601 is unique in user data management information 600.Because the ID in the data item 601 and the ID of application program represent in combination, so the ID in the data item 601 is unique in the admin table of other application programs.For example, the user data of ID " 100001 " expression is to be first data in the user data of the print application management of " 00001 " by ID, and the user data of ID " 200001 " expression is to be second data in the user data of the print application management of " 00001 " by ID.
The title of data item 602 each bar user data of expression.
The data layout of data item 603 each bar user data of expression.With the same in the data item 205, used extension is set to the value of data item 603 in the filename of user data.The path of the memory block of data item 604 each bar user data of expression storage.
Delegation's user data management information 600 is called record.This record comprises data item 601,602,603 and 604.The record representative is about the management information of a user data.
When the user generated user data, each application program was added record in user data management information 600.When the deletion user data, each application program is deleted the record corresponding to this user data from user data management information 600.
When the user wanted to visit the user data of being managed by application-specific, the user utilized user interface 124 to select these application-specific.For example, when the user wanted to visit user data by the copy application program management, " duplicating " button that the user touches in the display frame shown in Fig. 8 A was selected the copy application program.The user can be at the user data of visiting on the picture displayed by selecting by the copy application program management.In the display frame of Fig. 8 A, only show the button corresponding with invoked application program.The user can send the instruction about the button corresponding application program of having pressed with the user.Only show that the button corresponding with invoked application program makes it possible to reduce the quantity of shown application program, thereby improve user friendly.
Yet the user can not visit the user data by the application program management of never call.In order to address this problem, describe making the user can visit method now by the user data of the application program management of never call.Specifically, with the same in the example shown in Fig. 8 B, invalid document search button 802 is set in display frame.Here will describe and how use invalid document search button 802.To be called invalid data by the user data of the application program management of never call hereinafter.
Fig. 7 is the process flow diagram of example of processing that the search invalid data of being carried out by platform unit 20 of according to the present invention second exemplary embodiment are shown.
When receiving the instruction of search invalid data from the user, user interface 124 receives instruction to platform unit 20 notices.Processing shown in Figure 7 is carried out in response to this notice in platform unit 20.The user is by the corresponding button on the user interface images 800 shown in touching Fig. 8 B, the instruction of sending the search invalid data.

In step S1101, invoked all application programs in the direct storage unit 122 of platform unit 20 identifications.This step is carried out via the application programming interfaces (API) that limit in advance.The operation of platform unit 20 must be supported API.
In step S1104, platform unit 20 identifications user data area (piece A 1003, piece B 1004 and piece C 1005) shown in Figure 10.Utilize logical name (for example piece A, piece B or piece C) to discern user data area.
In step S1105, platform unit 20 determines that whether object block is by the application program management that calls.If object block are determined by the application program management that calls (among the step S1105 for being) in platform unit 20, then processing enters step S1108.If the application program management (being not among the step S1105) that object block can't help to call is determined in platform unit 20, then handle and enter step S1106.
In step S1106 and S1107, the search that platform unit 20 is carried out the user data that comprises in the object block.Step S1106 and S1107 are identical with step S704 and S705 among Fig. 7.
In step S1108, platform unit 20 determines whether the surplus object block that has.If the surplus object block (among the step S1108 for being) that has is determined in platform unit 20, then step S1104 is got back in processing.If the surplus object block (being not among the step S1108) that has is determined in platform unit 20, then handle and enter step S1109.In other words, after all the piece execution in step S1104 to S1107 in the 20 pairs of user data areas in platform unit, handle entering step S1109.
In step S1109, platform unit 20 is presented at the search result information of storing among the step S1107 in user interface 124.Then, the processing of the search invalid data among Figure 11 finishes.As mentioned above, according to the 3rd exemplary embodiment of the present invention, even the state that calls of management application program on table not, platform unit 20 is search invalid data in a manner described also, the user data that the user can use the user to generate according to the processing of being carried out by platform unit 20 effectively.
The advantage of above-mentioned exemplary embodiment can realize by the storage medium that the control method of carrying out each step is provided, makes computing machine carry out the program of each step or stores this program.
Though a device is carried out all processing in above exemplary embodiment, the multiple arrangement that is included in the system also can be carried out these processing each other collaboratively.
Suppose in above exemplary embodiment, to be the application setting trial period, and overdue application program of trial period to be unloaded from image processing system.When in these cases from image processing system unloading have following problem during application program, that is, generate and information of managing becomes inaccessible by application program, and the user for example can not with reference to or print this information.
By contrast, in the equipment that comprises personal computer (PC) and portable data assistance (for example PDA(Personal Digital Assistant)), can not cause the problems referred to above, although in this kind equipment with the renewal of application program or substitute and unload application program explicitly.This is to comprise the software that only is used for managing folder and file because of the equipment such as PC, even and after the application program unloading, also can visit the file that generates by each application program.For example using under the situation of Windows (registered trademark) as the PC of OS, realizing management file and file by the document management software (file management facilities) that is called Explorer.
Owing to be provided with Explorer, the user can understand the opening or searching for of the file destination among the PC, and does not rely on each application program.Even after PC unloading pdf document generates application program, the use of Explorer makes it possible to visit pdf document.
In image processing system, owing to the structural differences between PC and the image processing system causes above problem.Specifically, because the capacity of the information memory cell of image processing system is much smaller than the capacity of PC, so image processing system is difficult in conjunction with the independently data management software that does not rely on each application program, for example Explorer.
Below this point will be described in more detail.The document management software that uses among the PC has various functions, comprises the function of the listed files that shows various forms, search file and move, the function of duplicating or deleted file, and display file is with reference to the function of history.Have multiple function and be independent of a large amount of system resources of software consumes (memory capacity of information memory cell) of application program.Therefore, in the lower image processing system of the capacity of comparing information memory cell with PC, can not adopt the software that is independent of application program and only is used for file management.As a result, the file that generates by application program in image processing system depends on application program and is stored in the storage unit.In other words, the file storage that generates by application-specific is in the directorial area (file) of application program.Specifically, describe the unloaded situation of document management application program that is installed in the image processing system now in detail.The document management application program be the document storage that will be scanned or receive from external information processing among the HDD of image processing system so that the software of document management function to be provided.The document management application program allows user capture document and operation (for example, print or transmit) document.When from image processing system unloading document management application program, not only the document management application program can not be used, and can not visit scanned document or the outside document that receives that is stored among the HDD subsequently.In this case, can visit the document information that is stored among the HDD, unloaded document management application program must be installed once more in order to make the user.Reinstalling to the user of document management application program caused burden.In addition, the user also will know how to reinstall application program.In this case, the user need reinstall method or ask the attendant to set out to service centre's inquiry, thereby the dealer of image processing system is caused burden.
Although described the present invention, should understand and the invention is not restricted to disclosed exemplary embodiment with reference to exemplary embodiment.The scope of following claim be should the most broadly explain, thereby all modified examples and equivalent configurations and function comprised.
