Detailed Description
Preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are only for explaining the technical principle of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
In order to more clearly describe the technical solution of the present invention, a preferred embodiment of the present invention is explained in detail.
The automatic-restarting intelligent express cabinet operating system provided by the embodiment of the invention is designed based on an Android system, and compared with the existing Android system, the automatic-restarting intelligent express cabinet operating system is characterized in that: a state signal sending thread is arranged on a JNI part of the Android system and sends state signals to a main thread of the Android system according to a preset time interval; a state signal receiving module and a restarting control module are arranged in the main thread of the Android system; the state signal receiving module is used for receiving the state signal sent by the state signal sending thread; the restarting control module is used for judging whether the state signal receiving module receives the state signal in each detection period with preset duration, and restarting the Android system when the judgment result is negative.
The status signal in this embodiment is preset information, and may be any instruction identifier determined by a user, or a program instruction, as long as the Android system main thread can receive and identify the status signal.
When abnormal states such as stuck, blank screen, even crash and the like occur in the intelligent express cabinet adopting the Android system, user data which is not stored may exist, so in order to avoid data loss, in this embodiment, a user data storage module is further arranged in the Android system main thread, the user data in the Android system is stored through the user data storage module before the Android system is restarted through the restart control module, and the user data may include names, addresses, express bill numbers, distribution personnel, logistics information and the like of recipients. Certainly, the information stored at the same time also includes system data before restarting, so as to avoid loss of non-user data (such as cabinet state parameters, control parameters and the like which change in the using process); more optimally, the system state before restarting can be recovered in time after restarting, thereby achieving better system experience.
In this embodiment, the state signal sending thread sends the state signal to the Android system main thread according to a preset time interval, and the setting is performed by the first counter, so as to realize periodic time triggering.
In this embodiment, the restart control module sets, by using the second counter, the periodic timing and zero clearing by determining whether the state signal receiving module receives the detection period of the preset duration set by the state signal. In this embodiment, whether the Android system is restarted is determined by determining whether a status signal is received before the second counter is cleared.
In order to ensure timeliness and accuracy of restart monitoring, the state signal sending thread and the Android system main thread of the embodiment run in parallel.
Abnormal states such as a stuck state, a black screen and even a crash occurring in an intelligent express cabinet adopting an Android system may be accidental faults, and may also be caused by a part of hardware or software problems, and if the abnormal states are caused by the part of hardware or software problems, the fault cause can be analyzed through fault data.
In addition, an abnormal state frequently restarted due to a fault exists, and if the abnormal state occurs, the use of the intelligent express cabinet is greatly influenced, so that the abnormal state needs to be found and solved in time, and therefore, the restart alarm module is further arranged on the Android system main thread. And the restart alarm module is used for sending alarm information to a remote server or terminal equipment when the restart times in the preset restart detection duration is greater than a set time threshold. Therefore, the maintenance personnel can be timely sent to the site for fault maintenance. In this embodiment, the restart alarm module sends alarm information including an alarm signal and/or restart data of each restart in the preset restart detection duration to the remote server or the terminal device.
In order to more clearly explain the embodiment of the present invention, a restart detection and judgment process of the intelligent express delivery cabinet operating system capable of automatically restarting according to the present invention is further described, which includes:
step 1, after the system is started, a main thread of an Android system and a state signal sending thread run simultaneously;
