The data maintains a data structure that is a physical location of the memory that has particular characteristics defined by the data format. However, while the principles of the invention have been described in language specific to above, it is not intended to be limited to the specific details shown, since one skilled in the art will recognize that various steps and operations described below may be implemented in hardware.

The message sending, receiving and interacting method and device of the application server can be arranged in various electronic equipment for sending, receiving and interacting messages and are used for sending, receiving and interacting the messages at the application terminals corresponding to the isomorphic or heterogeneous application servers. The electronic devices include, but are not limited to, wearable devices, head-worn devices, medical health platforms, personal computers, server computers, hand-held or laptop devices, mobile devices (such as mobile phones, Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), media players, and the like), multiprocessor systems, consumer electronics, minicomputers, mainframe computers, distributed computing environments that include any of the above systems or devices, and the like. The electronic device is preferably an application server for sending and receiving messages or a central server for forwarding messages. The message sending, receiving and interacting device of the application server realizes the instant message interaction between the application terminals of the heterogeneous application servers by setting the common message interaction group between the heterogeneous application servers, thereby effectively solving the technical problems of lower safety of the instant message interaction of the message sending, receiving and interacting device of the existing application server or higher complexity of the instant message interaction process.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a flowchart of a first preferred embodiment of an application server message sending method according to the present invention. The application server message sending method in the preferred embodiment may be implemented by using the electronic device, and is used for performing message sending operation by an application terminal corresponding to a homogeneous or heterogeneous application server. The application server message sending method of the preferred embodiment includes:

step S101, receiving a local sending message, wherein the local sending message comprises a corresponding local user identifier and corresponding message interaction group information;

step S102, according to the local user identifier corresponding to the local sending message, acquiring the interactive user identifier corresponding to the local user identifier;

step S103, acquiring a group unique identifier of a corresponding message interaction group according to message interaction group information corresponding to a local sending message;

and step S104, based on the group unique identifier and the interactive user identifier, sending the local sending message to other users in the message interactive group.

The following describes in detail a specific flow of each step of the application server message sending method according to the preferred embodiment.

In step S101, the application server message sending device (which may be disposed in the corresponding application server) receives a local sending message sent by the local application terminal. The local sending message refers to a message that an application terminal is to send to other application terminals under the application server or application terminals under other heterogeneous application servers, and is specifically an application terminal under another heterogeneous application server in this embodiment.

In order to facilitate the local application server to identify the local transmission message, the local transmission message includes a local user identifier for indicating the local transmission application terminal and message interaction group information corresponding to the local transmission message.

The information of the message interaction group refers to related information of a message interaction group established by at least two application terminals under the homogeneous or heterogeneous application server, and the information of the message interaction group may include a group unique identifier of the message interaction group and an interaction user identifier of a group user of the message interaction group. Therefore, different application terminals in the same message interaction group can conveniently carry out message interaction. Subsequently, the process goes to step S102 and step S103.

In step S102, the application server message sending apparatus obtains the interactive user identifier corresponding to the local user identifier according to the local user identifier corresponding to the local sending message obtained in step S101, so that the application terminal under the heterogeneous application server can identify the local user identifier of the local sending application terminal. Subsequently, the process goes to step S104.

In step S103, the application server message sending apparatus obtains the group unique identifier of the corresponding message interaction group according to the message interaction group information obtained in step S101, so that the application terminal under the heterogeneous application server identifies the message interaction group corresponding to the locally sent message. Subsequently, the process goes to step S104.

In step S104, the application server message sending apparatus sends the local sending message obtained in step S101 to other users in the message interaction group through the message interaction group based on the group unique identifier obtained in step S103 and the interaction user identifier obtained in step S102. Here, the other users in the message interaction group may be users on other application terminals under the homogeneous or heterogeneous application server.

Thus, the application terminal message sending process of the application server message sending method of the preferred embodiment is completed.

The application server message sending method of the preferred embodiment realizes the instant message interaction between the application terminals of the heterogeneous application servers by setting the common message interaction group between the heterogeneous application servers, has higher instant message interaction security and simpler interaction flow, and does not need to pass through third-party instant communication software.

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a second preferred embodiment of an application server message sending method according to the present invention. The application server message sending method in the preferred embodiment may be implemented by using the electronic device, and is used for performing message sending operation by an application terminal corresponding to a homogeneous or heterogeneous application server. The application server message sending method of the preferred embodiment includes:

step S201, receiving a local user identifier of a local user and a different-place user identifier of a different-place user, and converting the local user identifier and the different-place user identifier into an interactive user identifier;

step S202, sending the local user identifier, the allopatric user identifier and the corresponding interactive user identifier to other application servers;

step S203, receiving a group creation instruction, and setting message interaction group information according to the group creation instruction; the message interaction group information comprises a corresponding group unique identifier and an interaction user identifier of a corresponding group user;

step S204, establishing a message interaction group according to the message interaction group information;

step S205, sending the message interaction group information to a corresponding application server;

step S206, receiving a local sending message, wherein the local sending message comprises a corresponding local user identifier and corresponding message interaction group information;

step S207, according to the local user identifier corresponding to the local sending message, acquiring the interactive user identifier corresponding to the local user identifier;

step S208, according to the message interaction group information corresponding to the local sending message, acquiring the group unique identifier of the corresponding message interaction group;

step S209 is to send the local sending message to other users in the message interaction group based on the group unique identifier and the interaction user identifier.

In step S201, the application server message transmitting apparatus receives a local user identifier of a local user from the local application server, and receives a remote user identifier of a remote user from a remote application server.

The application server messaging device then translates both the local user identifier and the displaced user identifier into an interactive user identifier.

Since the local application terminal and the remote application terminal are located in different application servers, the representation manners of the user identifiers corresponding to the local application terminal and the remote application terminal may be different, and the local user identifier of the local application terminal may be the same as the remote user identifier of a certain remote application terminal. Therefore, in order to effectively distinguish the local application terminal from the remote application terminal in the message interaction group, the application server message sending device converts the local user identifier and the remote user identifier into the interaction user identifier, and the local user identifier and the remote user identifier are in one-to-one correspondence with the interaction user identifier. In this way, any application server can identify the local application terminal and the allopatric application terminal in the message interaction group through the interaction user identifier. Subsequently, the process goes to step S202.

In step S202, the application server message sending device sends the local user identifier and the remote user identifier acquired in step S201, and the corresponding interactive user identifier to other application servers. Subsequently, the process goes to step S206.

In step S203, the application server message sending apparatus receives a group creation instruction, which is an instruction to create a message interaction group received from the local application server. And then the message sending device of the application server sets the message interaction group information of the message interaction group according to the group creation instruction. The message interaction group information includes a group unique identifier of a message interaction group and an interaction user identifier of a group user corresponding to the message interaction group.

Specifically, here, the application server message sending device may further establish a mapping relationship between the group unique identifier and a local group identifier of the local application server. Therefore, the local application server can conveniently carry out unified management on the interactive information in the message interaction group and the interactive information in the local message interaction group. Subsequently, the process goes to step S204.

In step S204, the application server message sending apparatus creates a corresponding message interaction group according to the message interaction group information acquired in step S203. Subsequently, it goes to step S205.

In step S205, the application server message sending device sends the message interaction group information acquired in step S203 to the corresponding application server. Subsequently, the process goes to step S206.

In step S206, the application server message transmission device receives a local transmission message transmitted by a local application terminal. The local sending message refers to a message that an application terminal is to send to other application terminals under the application server or application terminals under other heterogeneous application servers, and is specifically an application terminal under another heterogeneous application server in this embodiment.

The information of the message interaction group refers to related information of a message interaction group established by at least two application terminals under the homogeneous or heterogeneous application server, and the information of the message interaction group may include a group unique identifier of the message interaction group and an interaction user identifier of a group user of the message interaction group. Therefore, different application terminals in the same message interaction group can conveniently carry out message interaction. Subsequently, the process goes to step S207 and step S208.

In step S207, the application server message sending apparatus obtains the interactive user identifier corresponding to the local user identifier according to the local user identifier corresponding to the local sending message obtained in step S206, so that the application terminal under the heterogeneous application server can identify the local user identifier of the local sending application terminal. Subsequently, it goes to step S209.

In step S208, the application server message sending apparatus obtains the group unique identifier of the corresponding message interaction group according to the message interaction group information obtained in step S206, so that the application terminal under the server of the heterogeneous application identifies the message interaction group corresponding to the locally sent message. Subsequently, it goes to step S209.

In step S209, the application server message transmitting apparatus transmits the local transmission message acquired in step S206 to other users in the message interaction group through the message interaction group based on the group unique identifier acquired in step S208 and the interaction user identifier acquired in step S207. Here, the other users in the message interaction group may be users on other application terminals under the homogeneous or heterogeneous application server.

Here, the application server messaging device may route the locally sent message to other users in the messaging group through the central server.

Specifically, as in step S201, the application server message transmitting apparatus does not convert the local user identifier of a certain local user into the interactive user identifier. And the local application terminal corresponding to the local user wants to add a certain temporary user into the message interaction group, and the application server message sending device can receive a temporary user adding instruction of the local user. The temporary user adding instruction is an instruction for the local application terminal to add other local users into the message interaction group.

And then the application server message sending device converts the local user identifier of the temporary user into the interactive user identifier of the temporary user according to the temporary user adding instruction.

And finally, the application server message sending device sends the interactive user identifier of the temporary user to other application servers, so that the application terminals on the other application servers can identify the temporary user in the message interactive group, and the temporary user is added in the message interactive group.

If the user A of the message interaction group wants to add the temporary user B into the message interaction group, the interaction user identifier of the user B can be directly sent to the application terminals of other application servers, so that the application terminals on the other application servers can identify the temporary user in the message interaction group. However, the temporary user B can only see the interactive user identifiers of other users in the corresponding message interaction group, so the temporary user B cannot create the message interaction group, and the corresponding interactive user identifiers of the temporary user B can be deleted from each application server after the message interaction group is terminated.

Specifically, the message interaction group information further includes a corresponding group version. The group version is used to indicate the version number of the message interaction group information of the message interaction group, i.e. the higher the group version of the message interaction group is, the newer the message interaction group information of the message interaction group is. If the group content of the message interaction group is updated, the group version of the message interaction group information of the updated message interaction group is higher.

Before the application server message sending device sends the local sending message to other users of the message interaction group, the application server message sending device can also receive a group change instruction sent by the local application terminal or an application terminal corresponding to a remote application server, wherein the group change instruction refers to an instruction for changing group parameters in the message interaction group, such as a group name or users in the group. Such as a user adding or subtracting a group member to or from a messaging group. The group change instruction should include a group version of the changed group of message interactions.

When the application server message receiving device receives a group change instruction sent by a local or remote application terminal, the application server message sending device can judge whether a group version corresponding to the group change instruction is larger than a group version of a current message interaction group; that is, it is determined whether the received group change command is the latest group change command.

If the group version corresponding to the group change instruction is larger than the group version of the current message interaction group, the received group change instruction is judged to be the latest group change instruction, and the application server message sending device carries out group content change operation and group version change operation on the message interaction group according to the group change instruction. And if the group version corresponding to the group change instruction is less than or equal to the group version of the current message interaction group, the application server message sending device does not perform any change operation on the message interaction group.

And finally, the message sending device of the application server synchronizes the message interaction group information of the changed message interaction group to other application servers corresponding to the message interaction group, so that the group versions of the message interaction group information on all the application servers corresponding to the message interaction group are consistent.

On the basis of the first preferred embodiment, the application server message sending method of the present preferred embodiment may set a common message interaction group on multiple application servers in advance, thereby further improving the diversity of message interaction group settings. Meanwhile, temporary users can be added to the message interaction group, and the efficiency of instant message interaction is improved. In addition, the group content of the message interaction group is changed according to the group version corresponding to the group change instruction, so that the synchronization process of the message interaction group among all the application servers is simplified.

Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flowchart of a first preferred embodiment of the method for receiving an application server message according to the present invention. The application server message receiving method in the preferred embodiment may be implemented by using the electronic device, and is used for performing message receiving operation from an application terminal corresponding to an isomorphic or heterogeneous application server. The method for receiving the application server message in the preferred embodiment comprises the following steps:

step S301, receiving an application server message, wherein the application server message comprises a group unique identifier and an interactive user identifier of a message sending terminal;

step S302, searching a corresponding message interaction group according to the unique group identifier;

step S303, determining a corresponding local user identifier according to the interactive user identifier of the message interactive group;

and step S304, performing display operation on the application server message based on the local user identifier and the interactive user identifier of the message sending terminal.

The following describes in detail the specific flow of each step of the application server message receiving method according to the preferred embodiment.

In step S301, the application server message receiving device (which may be disposed in a corresponding application server) receives an application server message sent by a heterogeneous application server. The application server message refers to a message that an application terminal of a heterogeneous application server is to send to an application terminal under a local application server.

In order to facilitate the identification of the application server message by the local application server, the application server message comprises an interaction user identifier for representing the message sending terminal and a group unique identifier for the message interaction group. Therefore, different application terminals in the same message interaction group can conveniently carry out message interaction. Subsequently, the process goes to step S302.

In step S302, the application server message receiving apparatus searches for a corresponding message interaction group on the local application server according to the group unique identifier acquired in step S301. Subsequently, the process goes to step S303.

In step S303, the application server message receiving apparatus determines, according to the interactive user identifier of the message interaction group obtained in step S302, an interactive user identifier corresponding to a local application terminal in the message interaction group; and converting the interactive user identifier corresponding to the local application terminal into the local user identifier so as to search the local application terminal on the local application server. Subsequently, the process goes to step S304.

In step S304, the application server message receiving apparatus performs a display operation on the application server message on the local application terminal corresponding to the message interaction group based on the local user identifier acquired in step S303 and the interaction user identifier of the message sending terminal acquired in step S301.

Thus, the process of receiving and presenting the application server message of the application server message receiving method of the preferred embodiment is completed.

The application server message receiving method in the preferred embodiment realizes instant message interaction between application terminals of heterogeneous application servers by setting a common message interaction group between the heterogeneous application servers, and the instant message interaction has high security and simple interaction flow, and does not need to pass through third-party instant messaging software.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a flowchart of a second preferred embodiment of the method for receiving an application server message according to the present invention. The application server message receiving method in the preferred embodiment may be implemented by using the electronic device, and is used for performing message receiving operation from an application terminal corresponding to an isomorphic or heterogeneous application server. The application server message sending method of the preferred embodiment includes:

step S401, receiving a local user identifier of a local user and a remote user identifier of a remote user, and converting the local user identifier and the remote user identifier into an interactive user identifier;

step S402, sending the local user identifier, the allopatric user identifier and the corresponding interactive user identifier to other application servers;

step S403, receiving a group creation instruction, and setting message interaction group information according to the group creation instruction; wherein the message interaction group information comprises a corresponding group unique identifier and an interaction user identifier of a corresponding group user;

step S404, establishing a message interaction group according to the message interaction group information;

step S405, sending the message interaction group information to a corresponding application server;

step S406, receiving an application server message, wherein the application server message comprises a group unique identifier and an interactive user identifier of a message sending terminal;

step S407, searching a corresponding message interaction group according to the unique group identifier;

step S408, determining a corresponding local user identifier according to the interactive user identifier of the message interactive group;

step S409, based on the local user identifier and the interactive user identifier of the message sending terminal, the application server message is displayed.

In step S401, the application server message receiving means receives the local user identifier of the local user from the local application server and the displaced user identifier of the displaced user from the displaced application server.

The application server messaging device then translates both the local user identifier and the displaced user identifier into an interactive user identifier. Subsequently, the process goes to step S402.

In step S402, the application server message receiving apparatus sends the local user identifier and the remote user identifier acquired in step S401, and the corresponding interactive user identifier to other application servers. Subsequently, the process goes to step S406.

In step S403, the application server message receiving device receives a group creation instruction, which is an instruction to create a message interaction group received from the local application server. And then the message receiving device of the application server sets the message interaction group information of the message interaction group according to the group creation instruction. The message interaction group information includes a group unique identifier of a message interaction group and an interaction user identifier of a group user corresponding to the message interaction group.

Specifically, here, the application server message receiving device may further establish a mapping relationship between the group unique identifier and a local group identifier of the local application server. Therefore, the local application server can conveniently carry out unified management on the interactive information in the message interaction group and the interactive information in the local message interaction group. Subsequently, the process goes to step S404.

In step S404, the application server message receiving apparatus creates a corresponding message interaction group according to the message interaction group information acquired in step S403. Subsequently, the process goes to step S405.

In step S405, the application server message receiving apparatus sends the message interaction group information acquired in step S403 to the corresponding application server. Subsequently, the process goes to step S406.

In step S406, the application server message receiving device (which may be disposed in the corresponding application server) receives an application server message sent by a heterogeneous application server. The application server message refers to a message that an application terminal of a heterogeneous application server is to send to an application terminal under a local application server.

Here, the application server message receiving device may receive the application server message transmitted by the heterogeneous application server through the central server as a route.

In order to facilitate the identification of the application server message by the local application server, the application server message comprises an interaction user identifier for representing the message sending terminal and a group unique identifier for the message interaction group. Therefore, different application terminals in the same message interaction group can conveniently carry out message interaction. Subsequently, it goes to step S407.

In step S407, the application server message receiving device searches for a corresponding message interaction group on the local application server according to the group unique identifier acquired in step S406.

Specifically, referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a flowchart of step S407 of a second preferred embodiment of the method for receiving an application server message according to the present invention. The step S407 includes:

step S501, the message receiving device of the application server judges whether the local application server has a corresponding message interaction group, if so, the step S408 is carried out; if no corresponding message interaction group exists, go to step S502.

Step S502, if there is no corresponding message interaction group, the application server message receiving apparatus requests the message sending application server for message interaction group information of the message interaction group according to the application server message received in step S406, where the message interaction group information may include a group unique identifier of the message interaction group and an interaction user identifier of a group user of the message interaction group. Subsequently, it goes to step S503.

In step S503, the message sending application server sends the message interaction group information of the message interaction group to the application server message receiving apparatus. And the application server message receiving device creates a message interaction group corresponding to the application server message on the local application server according to the message interaction group information. Subsequently, the process goes to step S408.

In step S408, the application server message receiving apparatus determines, according to the interactive user identifier of the message interaction group obtained in step S407, an interactive user identifier corresponding to the local application terminal in the message interaction group; and converting the interactive user identifier corresponding to the local application terminal into the local user identifier so as to search the local application terminal on the local application server. Subsequently, it goes to step S409.

In step S409, the application server message receiving apparatus performs a display operation on the application server message on the local application terminal corresponding to the message interaction group based on the local user identifier acquired in step S408 and the interaction user identifier of the message sending terminal acquired in step S406.

On the basis of the first preferred embodiment, the application server message receiving method of the present preferred embodiment may set a common message interaction group on multiple application servers in advance, thereby further improving the diversity of message interaction group settings. Meanwhile, when the message interaction group corresponding to the application server message cannot be found, the message interaction group is established according to the application server message, so that the efficiency of instant message interaction is further improved, and the condition that the instant message is failed to be sent is avoided.

Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a flowchart illustrating a first preferred embodiment of an application server message interaction method according to the present invention. The method for message interaction of an application server in the preferred embodiment may be implemented using the electronic device, and is used for performing message interaction operations on application terminals corresponding to a plurality of heterogeneous application servers, where the method for message interaction of an application server in the preferred embodiment includes:

step S601, receiving an application server message, wherein the application server message comprises a group unique identifier and an interactive user identifier of a message sending terminal;

step S602, searching a corresponding message interaction group according to the unique group identifier;

step S603, determining a receiving application server corresponding to the application server message according to the interactive user identifier of the message interactive group;

step S604, sending the application server message to the corresponding application terminal receiving the application server.

The following describes the specific flow of each step of the application server message interaction method in detail in the preferred embodiment.

The application server message interaction device of the preferred embodiment may be disposed in a central server (or a routing server) for connecting heterogeneous application servers, so that different heterogeneous application servers can implement message interaction through the central server.

In step S601, the application server message interaction device (which may be disposed in a corresponding central server) receives an application server message sent by a certain application server. The application server message refers to a message that an application terminal of a certain application server is to send to application terminals of other application servers.

In order to facilitate the identification of the application server message by all application servers, the application server message comprises an interactive user identifier for representing the messaging terminal and a group unique identifier for the messaging interaction group. Therefore, different application terminals in the same message interaction group can conveniently carry out message interaction. Subsequently, the process goes to step S602.

In step S602, the application server message interaction device searches a corresponding message interaction group on the central server according to the group unique identifier obtained in step S601. Subsequently, it goes to step S603.

In step S603, the application server message interaction apparatus determines, according to the interaction user identifier of the message interaction group obtained in step S602, a receiving application server corresponding to the message interaction group, that is, a receiving application server corresponding to the message of the application server. Subsequently, the process goes to step S604.

In step S604, the application server message interacting device sends the application server message obtained in step S601 to the application terminal of the corresponding receiving application server according to the receiving application server obtained in step S603.

Thus, the interaction process of the application server message interaction method of the preferred embodiment is completed.

The message interaction method of the application server of the preferred embodiment realizes the instant message interaction between the application terminals of the heterogeneous application server by setting the common message interaction group between the heterogeneous application server and the central server, has higher instant message interaction safety and simpler interaction flow, and does not need to pass through third-party instant communication software.

Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a flowchart illustrating a second preferred embodiment of an application server message interaction method according to the present invention. The method for message interaction of an application server in the preferred embodiment may be implemented using the electronic device, and is used for performing message interaction operations on application terminals corresponding to a plurality of heterogeneous application servers, where the method for message interaction of an application server in the preferred embodiment includes:

step S701, receiving user identifiers of all application servers, and converting the user identifiers into interactive user identifiers;

step S702, sending the user identifier and the corresponding interactive user identifier to all application servers;

step S703, receiving a group creation instruction, and setting message interaction group information according to the group creation instruction; the message interaction group information comprises a corresponding group unique identifier and an interaction user identifier of a corresponding group user;

step S704, creating a message interaction group according to the message interaction group information;

step S705, sending the message interaction group information to the corresponding application server.

Step S706, receiving application server information, wherein the application server information comprises a group unique identifier and an interactive user identifier of a message sending terminal;

step S707, according to the group unique identifier, searching a corresponding message interaction group;

step S708, determining a receiving application server corresponding to the application server message according to the interactive user identifier of the message interactive group;

step S709, the application server message is sent to the corresponding application terminal receiving the application server.

In step S701, the application server message interaction device (which may be disposed in a corresponding central server) acquires all application server lists and receives corresponding user identifiers from all application servers.

The application server messaging device then converts the user identifier to an interactive user identifier. Subsequently, the process goes to step S702.

In step S702, the application server message interaction device sends the user identifier of the application server acquired in step S701 and the corresponding interaction user identifier to all application servers. Subsequently, the process goes to step S706.

In step S703, the application server message interaction device receives a group creation instruction, which is an instruction to create a message interaction group received from the application server.

And then the application server message interaction device sets the message interaction group information of the message interaction group according to the group creation instruction. The message interaction group information includes a group unique identifier of a message interaction group and an interaction user identifier of a group user corresponding to the message interaction group.

Specifically, here, the application server message interaction device may further establish a mapping relationship between the group unique identifier and the local group identifier of the application server. Therefore, the application server can conveniently carry out unified management on the interactive information in the message interaction group and the interactive information in the local message interaction group. Subsequently, it goes to step S704.

In step S704, the application server message interaction device creates a corresponding message interaction group according to the message interaction group information acquired in step S703. Subsequently, the process goes to step S705.

In step S705, the application server message interaction device sends the message interaction group information acquired in step S704 to the corresponding application server. Subsequently, the process goes to step S706.

In step S706, the application server message interaction device receives an application server message sent by a certain application server. The application server message refers to a message that an application terminal of a certain application server is to send to application terminals of other application servers.

In order to facilitate the identification of the application server message by all application servers, the application server message comprises an interactive user identifier for representing the messaging terminal and a group unique identifier for the messaging interaction group. Therefore, different application terminals in the same message interaction group can conveniently carry out message interaction. Subsequently, the process goes to step S707.

In step S707, the application server message interaction device searches the corresponding message interaction group on the central server according to the group unique identifier obtained in step S706. Subsequently, the process goes to step S708. In step S708, the application server message interaction apparatus determines, according to the interaction user identifier of the message interaction group obtained in step S707, that the message interaction group corresponds to the receiving application server, that is, the receiving application server corresponding to the application server message. Subsequently, the process proceeds to step S709.

In step S709, the application server message interacting device sends the application server message obtained in step S706 to the application terminal of the corresponding receiving application server according to the receiving application server obtained in step S708.

Specifically, as in step S701, the application server message interaction device does not convert a certain user identifier into an interaction user identifier. And if a certain application terminal wants to join a certain temporary user into the message interaction group, the message interaction device of the application server can receive a temporary user adding instruction of the application terminal of the application server. The temporary user adding instruction is an instruction for adding other local users into the message interaction group by the application terminal.

And then the application server message interaction device converts the user identifier of the temporary user into the interaction user identifier of the temporary user according to the temporary user adding instruction.

And finally, the message interaction device of the application server sends the interaction user identifier of the temporary user to other application servers, so that the application terminals on the other application servers can identify the temporary user in the message interaction group, and the temporary user is added in the message interaction group.

Before the application server message interaction device sends the application server message to other users of the message interaction group, the application server message interaction device can also receive a group change instruction sent by an application terminal corresponding to the application server, wherein the group change instruction refers to an instruction for changing group parameters in the message interaction group, such as a group name or users in the group. Such as a user adding or subtracting a group member to or from a messaging group. The group change instruction should include a group version of the changed group of message interactions.

When the application server message interaction device receives a group change instruction sent by an application terminal corresponding to an application server, the application server message interaction device can judge whether a group version corresponding to the group change instruction is larger than a group version of a current message interaction group; that is, it is determined whether the received group change command is the latest group change command.

If the group version corresponding to the group change instruction is larger than the group version of the current message interaction group, the received group change instruction is judged to be the latest group change instruction, and the application server message interaction device carries out group content change operation and group version change operation on the message interaction group according to the group change instruction. And if the group version corresponding to the group change instruction is less than or equal to the group version of the current message interaction group, the application server message interaction device does not perform any change operation on the message interaction group.

And finally, the message interaction device of the application server synchronizes the message interaction group information of the changed message interaction group to other application servers corresponding to the message interaction group, so that the group versions of the message interaction group information on all the application servers corresponding to the message interaction group are consistent.

On the basis of the first preferred embodiment, the application server message interaction method of the present preferred embodiment may set a common message interaction group in advance between the plurality of application servers and the central server, thereby further improving the diversity of message interaction group settings. Meanwhile, temporary users can be added to the message interaction group, and the efficiency of instant message interaction is improved. In addition, the group content of the message interaction group is changed according to the group version corresponding to the group change instruction, so that the synchronization process of the message interaction group among all the application servers is simplified.

Referring to fig. 8, fig. 8 is a schematic structural diagram of a first preferred embodiment of the application server message sending apparatus of the present invention, where the application server message sending apparatus of the present invention may be implemented by using the first preferred embodiment of the application server message sending method, and is configured to perform a message sending operation to an application terminal corresponding to a homogeneous or heterogeneous application server.

The application server message sending device 80 of the preferred embodiment includes a local message receiving module 81, an interactive user identifier obtaining module 82, a group unique identifier obtaining module 83, and an information sending module 84.

The local message receiving module 81 is configured to receive a local sending message, where the local sending message includes a corresponding local user identifier and corresponding message interaction group information; the interactive user identifier obtaining module 82 is configured to obtain, according to a local user identifier corresponding to the local transmission message, an interactive user identifier corresponding to the local user identifier; the group unique identifier obtaining module 83 is configured to obtain a group unique identifier of a corresponding message interaction group according to message interaction group information corresponding to a locally sent message; the message sending module 84 is configured to send the local send message to other users in the messaging interaction group based on the group unique identifier and the interaction user identifier.

When the application server message transmitting apparatus 80 of the preferred embodiment is used, first, the local message receiving module 81 receives a local transmission message transmitted by a local application terminal. The local sending message refers to a message that an application terminal is to send to other application terminals under the application server or application terminals under other heterogeneous application servers, and is specifically an application terminal under another heterogeneous application server in this embodiment.

The information of the message interaction group refers to related information of a message interaction group established by at least two application terminals under the homogeneous or heterogeneous application server, and the information of the message interaction group may include a group unique identifier of the message interaction group and an interaction user identifier of a group user of the message interaction group. Therefore, different application terminals in the same message interaction group can conveniently carry out message interaction.

Subsequently, the interactive user identifier obtaining module 82 obtains the interactive user identifier corresponding to the local user identifier according to the local user identifier corresponding to the local transmission message obtained by the local message receiving module 81, so that the application terminal under the heterogeneous application server can identify the local user identifier of the local transmission application terminal.

Then, the group unique identifier obtaining module 83 obtains the group unique identifier of the corresponding message interaction group according to the message interaction group information obtained by the local message receiving module 81, so that the application terminal under the heterogeneous application server identifies the message interaction group corresponding to the locally sent message.

Finally, the information sending module 84 sends the local sending message acquired by the local message receiving module 81 to other users in the message interaction group through the message interaction group based on the group unique identifier acquired by the group unique identifier acquiring module 83 and the interaction user identifier acquired by the interaction user identifier acquiring module. Here, the other users in the message interaction group may be users on other application terminals under the homogeneous or heterogeneous application server.

This completes the application terminal message transmission process of the application server message transmission device 80 of the present preferred embodiment.

The application server message sending device of the preferred embodiment realizes the instant message interaction between the application terminals of the heterogeneous application servers by setting the common message interaction group between the heterogeneous application servers, has higher instant message interaction safety and simpler interaction flow, and does not need to pass through third-party instant communication software.

Referring to fig. 9, fig. 9 is a schematic structural diagram of a second preferred embodiment of an application server message sending apparatus according to the present invention, which can be implemented by using the second preferred embodiment of the application server message sending method described above, and is configured to perform a message sending operation to an application terminal corresponding to a homogeneous or heterogeneous application server.

The application server message sending apparatus 90 of the preferred embodiment includes an identifier conversion module 91, an identifier sending module 92, a group information setting module 93, a group creation module 94, a group information sending module 95, a local message receiving module 96, an interactive user identifier obtaining module 97, a group unique identifier obtaining module 98, and an information sending module 99.

The identifier conversion module 91 is configured to receive a local user identifier of a local user and a remote user identifier of a remote user, and convert the local user identifier and the remote user identifier into an interactive user identifier; the identifier sending module 92 is configured to send the local user identifier, the remote user identifier, and the corresponding interactive user identifier to the other application server; the group information setting module 93 is configured to receive a group creation instruction, and set the message interaction group information according to the group creation instruction; the message interaction group information comprises a corresponding group unique identifier and an interaction user identifier of a corresponding group user; the group creating module 94 is configured to create the message interaction group according to the message interaction group information; the group information sending module 95 is configured to send the message interaction group information to the corresponding application server; the local message receiving module 96 is configured to receive a local sending message, where the local sending message includes a corresponding local user identifier and corresponding message interaction group information; the interactive user identifier obtaining module 97 is configured to obtain an interactive user identifier corresponding to a local user identifier according to the local user identifier corresponding to the local sending message; the group unique identifier obtaining module 98 is configured to obtain a group unique identifier of a corresponding message interaction group according to message interaction group information corresponding to a locally sent message; the message sending module 99 is configured to send the local send message to other users in the message interaction group based on the group unique identifier and the interaction user identifier.

The application server message transmitting apparatus 90 further includes a temporary user identifier conversion module 9A, a temporary user identifier transmitting module 9B, a group identifier mapping module 9C, a group change instruction receiving module 9D, a version determination module 9E, a change module 9F, and a change information synchronization module 9G.

The temporary user identifier conversion module 9A is configured to receive a temporary user adding instruction, and convert the local user identifier of the temporary user into the interactive user identifier of the temporary user according to the temporary user adding instruction; the temporary user identifier sending module 9B is configured to send the interaction user identifier of the temporary user to other application servers, so as to add the temporary user to the message interaction group. The group identifier mapping module 9C is configured to establish a mapping relationship between the group unique identifier and the local group identifier. The group change instruction receiving module 9D is configured to receive a group change instruction, where the group change instruction includes a group version of the changed message interaction group; the version judgment module 9E is configured to judge whether a group version corresponding to the group change instruction is greater than a group version of the current message interaction group; the changing module 9F is configured to, if the group version corresponding to the group changing instruction is greater than the group version of the current message interaction group, perform a group content changing operation and a group version changing operation on the message interaction group according to the group changing instruction; the change information synchronization module 9G is configured to synchronize the information of the changed message interaction group to the corresponding application server.

When the application server message transmitting apparatus 90 of the preferred embodiment is used, the identifier conversion module 91 receives the local user identifier of the local user from the local application server, and receives the remote user identifier of the remote user from the remote application server.

The identifier translation module 91 then translates both the local user identifier and the displaced user identifier into an interactive user identifier.

Since the local application terminal and the remote application terminal are located in different application servers, the representation manners of the user identifiers corresponding to the local application terminal and the remote application terminal may be different, and the local user identifier of the local application terminal may be the same as the remote user identifier of a certain remote application terminal. Therefore, in order to effectively distinguish the local application terminal from the remote application terminal in the message interaction group, the identifier conversion module converts the local user identifier and the remote user identifier into the interaction user identifier, and the local user identifier and the remote user identifier are in one-to-one correspondence with the interaction user identifier. In this way, any application server can identify the local application terminal and the allopatric application terminal in the message interaction group through the interaction user identifier.

The identifier sending module 92 then sends the local user identifier and the displaced user identifier obtained by the identifier conversion module 91, and the corresponding interactive user identifier to other application servers.

The group information setting module 93 then receives a group creation instruction, which is an instruction to create a message interaction group received from the local application server. Then the group information setting module 93 sets the message interaction group information of the message interaction group according to the group creation instruction. The message interaction group information includes a group unique identifier of a message interaction group and an interaction user identifier of a group user corresponding to the message interaction group.

Specifically, here, the group identifier mapping module 9C may also establish a mapping relationship between the group unique identifier and the local group identifier of the local application server. Therefore, the local application server can conveniently carry out unified management on the interactive information in the message interaction group and the interactive information in the local message interaction group.

Then, the group creating module 94 creates a corresponding message interaction group according to the message interaction group information acquired by the group information setting module 93.

Then, the group information sending module 95 sends the message interaction group information acquired by the group information setting module 93 to the corresponding application server.

The local message receiving module 96 then receives a local transmission message sent by the local application terminal. The local sending message refers to a message that an application terminal is to send to other application terminals under the application server or application terminals under other heterogeneous application servers, and is specifically an application terminal under another heterogeneous application server in this embodiment.

Then, the interactive user identifier obtaining module 97 obtains the interactive user identifier corresponding to the local user identifier according to the local user identifier corresponding to the local transmission message obtained by the local message receiving module 96, so that the application terminal under the heterogeneous application server can identify the local user identifier of the local transmission application terminal.

Then, the group unique identifier obtaining module 98 obtains the group unique identifier of the corresponding message interaction group according to the message interaction group information obtained by the local message receiving module 96, so that the application terminal under the server of the heterogeneous application identifies the message interaction group corresponding to the locally sent message.

Finally, the information sending module 99 sends the local sending message acquired by the local message receiving module 96 to other users in the message interaction group through the message interaction group based on the group unique identifier acquired by the group unique identifier acquiring module 98 and the interaction user identifier acquired by the interaction user identifier acquiring module 97. Here, the other users in the message interaction group may be users on other application terminals under the homogeneous or heterogeneous application server.

Here the application server messaging device 90 may route the locally sent message to other users in the messaging group through the central server.

Specifically, for example, the identifier conversion module 91 does not convert the local user identifier of a certain local user into the interactive user identifier. And the local application terminal corresponding to the local user wishes to add a certain temporary user to the message interaction group, the temporary user identifier conversion module 9A may receive a temporary user addition instruction of the local user. The temporary user adding instruction is an instruction for the local application terminal to add other local users into the message interaction group.

The temporary user identifier conversion module 9A then converts the local user identifier of the temporary user into the interactive user identifier of the temporary user according to the temporary user addition instruction.

Finally, the temporary user identifier sending module 9B sends the interactive user identifier of the temporary user to another application server, so that the application terminal on the other application server can identify the temporary user in the message interaction group, thereby realizing the addition of the temporary user in the message interaction group.

Before the application server message sending device 90 sends the local sending message to other users of the message interaction group, the group change instruction receiving module 9D may also receive a group change instruction sent by a local application terminal or an application terminal corresponding to a remote application server, where the group change instruction refers to an instruction for changing group parameters in the message interaction group, such as a group name or a user in the group. Such as a user adding or subtracting a group member to or from a messaging group. The group change instruction should include a group version of the changed group of message interactions.

When the group change instruction receiving module 9D receives a group change instruction sent by a local or remote application terminal, the version determining module 9E determines whether the group version corresponding to the group change instruction is greater than the group version of the current message interaction group; that is, it is determined whether the received group change command is the latest group change command.

If the group version corresponding to the group change instruction is larger than the group version of the current message interaction group, the received group change instruction is judged to be the latest group change instruction, and the change module 9F performs group content change operation and group version change operation on the message interaction group according to the group change instruction. If the group version corresponding to the group change instruction is less than or equal to the group version of the current messaging group, the application server messaging device 90 does not perform any change operation on the messaging group.

Finally, the change information synchronization module 9G synchronizes the changed message interaction group information of the message interaction group to other application servers corresponding to the message interaction group, so that the group versions of the message interaction group information on all the application servers corresponding to the message interaction group are consistent.

This completes the application terminal message transmission process of the application server message transmission device 90 of the present preferred embodiment.

On the basis of the first preferred embodiment, the application server message sending apparatus of the present preferred embodiment may set a common message interaction group on a plurality of application servers in advance, thereby further improving the diversity of message interaction group settings. Meanwhile, temporary users can be added to the message interaction group, and the efficiency of instant message interaction is improved. In addition, the group content of the message interaction group is changed according to the group version corresponding to the group change instruction, so that the synchronization process of the message interaction group among all the application servers is simplified.

When the application server message receiving apparatus 100 of the preferred embodiment is used, the server message receiving module 101 first receives an application server message sent by a heterogeneous application server. The application server message refers to a message that an application terminal of a heterogeneous application server is to send to an application terminal under a local application server.

In order to facilitate the identification of the application server message by the local application server, the application server message comprises an interaction user identifier for representing the message sending terminal and a group unique identifier for the message interaction group. Therefore, different application terminals in the same message interaction group can conveniently carry out message interaction.

Then, the message interaction group searching module 102 searches a corresponding message interaction group on the local application server according to the group unique identifier obtained by the server message receiving module 101.

Then, the local user identifier determining module 103 determines an interactive user identifier corresponding to a local application terminal in the message interaction group according to the interactive user identifier of the message interaction group acquired by the message interaction group searching module 102; and converting the interactive user identifier corresponding to the local application terminal into the local user identifier so as to search the local application terminal on the local application server.

Finally, the message display module 104 performs a display operation on the application server message on the local application terminal corresponding to the message interaction group based on the local user identifier acquired by the local user identifier determination module 103 and the interactive user identifier of the message sending terminal acquired by the server message receiving module 101.

This completes the application server message reception and presentation process of the application server message reception apparatus 100 of the present preferred embodiment.

Referring to fig. 12, fig. 12 is a schematic structural diagram of a message interaction group searching module of a second preferred embodiment of an application server message receiving apparatus according to the present invention. The messagelnteractiongroup searching module 117 includes a judging unit 121, a messagelnteractiongroup information requesting unit 122, and a messagelnteractiongroup creating unit 123.

The judging unit 121 is configured to judge whether there is a corresponding message interaction group; the message interaction group information requesting unit 122 is configured to request, according to the application server message, message interaction group information of a message interaction group from the message sending application server; the message interaction group creating unit 123 is configured to create a message interaction group corresponding to the message of the application server locally according to the message interaction group information fed back by the message sending application server.

When the application server message receiving apparatus 110 of the preferred embodiment is used, the identifier conversion module 111 first receives the local user identifier of the local user from the local application server, and receives the remote user identifier of the remote user from the remote application server. The identifier translation module 111 then translates both the local user identifier and the displaced user identifier into an interactive user identifier. Wherein the user identifiers correspond to the interactive user identifiers one to one.

The identifier sending module 112 then sends the local user identifier and the displaced user identifier obtained by the identifier conversion module 111, and the corresponding interactive user identifier to other application servers.

The group information setting module 113 then receives a group creation instruction, which is an instruction to create a messaging group received from the local application server.

Then, the group creating module 114 creates a corresponding message interaction group according to the message interaction group information acquired by the group information setting module 113.

Then, the group information sending module 115 sends the message interaction group information acquired by the group information setting module 113 to the corresponding application server.

The server message receiving module 116 then receives the application server message sent by the heterogeneous application server. The application server message refers to a message that an application terminal of a heterogeneous application server is to send to an application terminal under a local application server.

Here, the server message receiving module 116 may receive the application server message sent by the heterogeneous application server through the central server as a route.

The messageinteractive group searching module 117 then searches the corresponding messageinteractive group on the local application server according to the group unique identifier acquired by the server message receiving module.

The method specifically comprises the following steps:

the determining unit 121 of the messagelnteractiongroup searching module 117 determines whether the local application has a corresponding messagelnteractiongroup on the server.

If there is no corresponding messaging group, the messaging group information requesting unit 122 of the messaging group lookup module 117 requests the messaging application server for messaging group information of the messaging group, which may include a group unique identifier of the messaging group and an interaction user identifier of a group user of the messaging group, according to the application server message received by the server message receiving module 116.

The messaging application server sends the messaging group information for the messaging group to the messaging group lookup module 117. The messageinteraction group creating unit 123 of the messageinteraction group searching module 117 creates a messageinteraction group corresponding to the application server message on the local application server according to the messageinteraction group information.

When the application server message interaction device 140 of the preferred embodiment is used, the identifier conversion module 141 obtains all the application server lists, and receives corresponding user identifiers from all the application servers. The identifier conversion module then converts the user identifier into an interactive user identifier.

The identifier sending module 142 then sends the user identifier of the application server acquired by the identifier conversion module 141 and the corresponding interactive user identifier to all application servers.

The group information setting module 143 then receives a group creation instruction, which is an instruction to create a message interaction group received from the application server.

The group information setting module 143 then sets the message interaction group information of the message interaction group according to the group creation instruction. The message interaction group information includes a group unique identifier of a message interaction group and an interaction user identifier of a group user corresponding to the message interaction group.

Specifically, here, the group identifier mapping module 14C may also establish a mapping relationship between the group unique identifier and the local group identifier of the application server. Therefore, the application server can conveniently carry out unified management on the interactive information in the message interaction group and the interactive information in the local message interaction group.

Then, the group creating module 144 creates a corresponding message interaction group according to the message interaction group information acquired by the group information setting module 143.

Then, the group information sending module 145 sends the message interaction group information acquired by the group creating module 144 to the corresponding application server.

The server message receiving module 146 then receives an application server message sent by an application server. The application server message refers to a message that an application terminal of a certain application server is to send to application terminals of other application servers.

The messageinteractive group searching module 147 then searches the corresponding messageinteractive group on the central server according to the group unique identifier acquired by the server message receiving module 146.

Then, the receiving application server determining module 148 determines, according to the interactive user identifier of the message interaction group obtained by the message interaction group searching module 147, a receiving application server corresponding to the message interaction group, that is, a receiving application server corresponding to the message of the application server.

Finally, the message sending module 149 sends the application server message obtained by the server message receiving module 146 to the application terminal of the corresponding receiving application server according to the receiving application server obtained by the receiving application server determining module 148.

Specifically, for example, the identifier conversion module 141 does not convert a certain user identifier into an interactive user identifier. And an application terminal wants to join a temporary user into the message interaction group, the temporary user identifier conversion module 14A may receive a temporary user addition instruction of the application terminal of the application server. The temporary user adding instruction is an instruction for adding other local users into the message interaction group by the application terminal.

The temporary user identifier translation module 14A then translates the user identifier of the temporary user into an interactive user identifier of the temporary user according to the temporary user add instruction.

Finally, the temporary user identifier sending module 14B sends the interactive user identifier of the temporary user to another application server, so that the application terminal on the other application server can identify the temporary user in the message interaction group, thereby implementing the addition of the temporary user in the message interaction group.

Before the application server message interaction device 140 sends the application server message to other users of the message interaction group, the group change instruction receiving module 14D may also receive a group change instruction sent by an application terminal corresponding to the application server, where the group change instruction refers to an instruction for changing a group parameter in the message interaction group, such as a group name or a user in the group. Such as a user adding or subtracting a group member to or from a messaging group. The group change instruction should include a group version of the changed group of message interactions.

When the group change instruction receiving module 14D receives a group change instruction sent by an application terminal corresponding to an application server, the version determining module 14E determines whether a group version corresponding to the group change instruction is greater than a group version of a current message interaction group; that is, it is determined whether the received group change command is the latest group change command.

If the group version corresponding to the group change instruction is greater than the group version of the current message interaction group, the received group change instruction is determined to be the latest group change instruction, and the change module 14F performs group content change operation and group version change operation on the message interaction group according to the group change instruction. If the group version corresponding to the group change instruction is less than or equal to the group version of the current messaging group, the application server messaging device 140 does not perform any change operation on the messaging group.

Finally, the change information synchronization module 14G synchronizes the changed message interaction group information of the message interaction group to other application servers corresponding to the message interaction group, so that the group versions of the message interaction group information on all the application servers corresponding to the message interaction group are consistent.

This completes the application server message interaction process of the application server message interaction device 140 of the preferred embodiment.

On the basis of the first preferred embodiment, the application server message interaction apparatus of the present preferred embodiment may set a common message interaction group in advance between the plurality of application servers and the central server, thereby further improving the diversity of setting the message interaction group. Meanwhile, temporary users can be added to the message interaction group, and the efficiency of instant message interaction is improved. In addition, the group content of the message interaction group is changed according to the group version corresponding to the group change instruction, so that the synchronization process of the message interaction group among all the application servers is simplified.

The following describes a specific working principle of the method and apparatus for sending, receiving and interacting messages of the application server according to a specific embodiment. Referring to fig. 15, fig. 15 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a method and an apparatus for sending, receiving and interacting an application server message according to the present invention. The application terminal a1 and the application terminal a2 … … perform the operation of sending and receiving messages through the application server a. The application terminals B1 and B2 … … perform message transmission and reception operations by the application server B using the application terminal bn. The application server A and the application server B are heterogeneous application servers, and the application server A and the application server B forward messages through the central server C.

Wherein, the application terminal a1 can log in the application server a through the IM software such as Tencent Enterprise communication, and the application terminal a can synchronize the events through the message queue to ensure the integrity of the data. Enterprise communication interface services may also be provided to support various functional interface services such as session creation, session change, and messaging.

For example, the application terminal a1 and the application terminal a2 of the application server a need to perform message interaction with the application terminal B1 of the application server B, first, the application server a needs to send the local user identifier of the application terminal a1 and the local user identifier of the application terminal a2 and the interactive user identifier to the application server B, and the application server B also needs to send the local user identifier of the application terminal B1 and the interactive user identifier to the application server a. Here, the local user identifier of the application terminal a1 may be a001, the local user identifier of the application terminal a2 may be a002, the local user identifier of the application terminal B1 may be B001, the interactive user identifier of the application terminal a1 may be 1001, the interactive user identifier of the application terminal a2 may be 1002, and the interactive user identifier of the application terminal B1 may be 1003. In this way, the application server a and the application server B can identify the application terminal a1, the application terminal a2, and the application terminal B1. Meanwhile, the application server a may also share the organizational structure of the application terminal a1 and the application terminal a2 with the application server B, for example, the application terminal a1 is the application terminal a1 of the tool development group of the business a, and the application terminal a2 is the application terminal a2 of the client development group of the business a.

Then, the application terminal of the application server a or the application terminal of the application server B may establish the messaging group, for example, the application terminal a1 of the application server a establishes a messaging group consisting of the application terminal a1, the application terminal a2 and the application terminal B1.

The application terminal A1 may establish a messaging group with a group unique identifier of 2f1b38de-a54a-4ce2-a71b-4c6c2cc1f588, which corresponds to the local group identifier of the application server a of a 100. The application server a then sends the group unique identifier of the messaging group and the interaction user identifier 1001 of the application terminal a1 to the application terminal a2 and the application terminal B1, so that the application server B also establishes a messaging group with a group unique identifier of 2f1B38de-a54a-4ce2-a71B-4c6c2cc1f588, and the local group identifier of the application server B corresponding to the messaging group is B100. Thus, the application terminal a1 and the application terminal a2 in the application server a can perform message interaction with the application terminal B1 in the application server B through the message interaction group.

Specifically, referring to fig. 16, fig. 16 is a flowchart illustrating a message interaction process of an application server message sending, receiving, and interacting method and apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, where after a message interaction group is established, if an application terminal a1 wants to send a message to an application terminal b1, the message interaction process includes:

step S1601, the application terminal a1 sends a message to the application server A;

step S1602, the application server A converts the local user identifier of the application terminal a1 into an interactive user identifier;

step S1603, the application server A sends the group unique identifier of the message interaction group, the interaction user identifier of the application terminal a1 and the corresponding message to the application server B through the central server;

step S1604, the application server B judges whether the message interaction group is established according to the unique group identifier; if the establishment is passed to step S1605, if the establishment is not, to step S1606.

In step S1605, the application server B sends the message to the application terminal B1, and feeds back the message sending result to the application server a.

In step S1606, the application server B requests the application server a for the message interaction group information of the message interaction group.

Step S1607, the application server B receives the message interaction group information of the application server a.

In step S1608, the application server B creates a message interaction group according to the message interaction group information, sends the message to the application terminal B1 through the message interaction group, and feeds back the message sending result to the application server a.

Thus, the interaction process of the application terminal a1 and the application terminal b1 of the present embodiment is completed.

Specifically, referring to fig. 17, fig. 17 is a flowchart illustrating a work flow of changing the content of the message interaction group according to an embodiment of the method and apparatus for sending, receiving and interacting a message by an application server. If the application terminal a1 wants to change the group title of the message interaction group, the group title change process includes:

in step S1701, the application terminal a1 sends a group change instruction to the application server a, where the group change instruction includes a group version corresponding to the message interaction group.

In step S1702, the application server a sends the group change instruction to the central server.

Step S1703, the central server determines whether the group version corresponding to the group change instruction is greater than the group version of the current message interaction group, and if the group version corresponding to the group change instruction is less than or equal to the group version of the current message interaction group, goes to step S1704; if the group version corresponding to the group change instruction is greater than the group version of the current message interaction group, go to step S1705.

In step S1704, the central server does not respond to the group change instruction of the application server a.

Step S1705, the central server performs change operation on the title of the message interaction group according to the group change instruction, and performs change operation on the group version of the message interaction group at the same time.

Step S1706, the central server synchronizes the changed message interaction group of the message interaction group to the application server a and the application server B.

This completes the process of changing the group title of the message interaction group by the application terminal a 1.

Specifically, referring to fig. 18, fig. 18 is a flowchart illustrating a method and an apparatus for sending, receiving and interacting a message by an application server according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein a temporary user is added. If the application terminal a1 wants to add the application terminal a3 as a temporary user in the messaging group, the process of adding the application terminal a3 includes:

in step S1801, the application terminal a1 will send a temporary user add instruction of the application terminal a3 to the application server a;

step S1802, the application server a converts the local user identifier of the application terminal a3 into an interactive user identifier;

step S1803, the application server A sends the group unique identifier of the message interaction group, the interaction user identifier of the application terminal a1 and the corresponding temporary user adding instruction to the application server B through the central server;

in step S1804, the application server B adds the interactive user identifier of the application terminal a3 in the message interactive group, and feeds back the temporary user addition result to the application server a through the central server.

This completes the process of adding application terminal a3 as a temporary user in the messaging group by application terminal a 1.

The method and the device for sending, receiving and interacting the messages of the application server realize the instant message interaction between the application terminals of the heterogeneous application servers by setting the common message interaction group among the heterogeneous application servers, have higher instant message interaction safety and simpler interaction flow, and do not need to pass through third-party instant communication software; the technical problems that the safety of instant message interaction of the existing method and device for sending, receiving and interacting the messages of the application server is low or the complexity of the instant message interaction process is high are effectively solved.
