In one embodiment, if the user enters a trigger character, such as the character @, the right side of FIG. 1 is displayed with the group member information displayed via a full screen page 104.

In the embodiment of the present invention, a terminal user may click a selected character through the keyboard input box 103 to determine a character that needs to be published, the character that needs to be published is first displayed in the character input box 102, and when a sending operation is detected, the character that needs to be published is sent to other group member users and is also displayed in the interactive information display box 101. In the embodiment of the invention, a special designated character can be set, through which the terminal user can initiate an individual notification to a certain group member in the group, and the designated character can adopt a commonly used character @, for example. After the terminal user inputs @ the information, a member selection interface can be generated, group member information in the target group corresponding to the group session interface is recorded on the member selection interface, and the member selection interface is displayed on a terminal screen, so that the terminal user can select one or more members from the group member information and initiate individual notification to the members.

Please refer to fig. 2, which is a schematic flow diagram of an information display method in an instant messaging application according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the method is applied to a mobile terminal such as a smart phone or a tablet computer, and when a terminal user chats on a group session interface corresponding to a certain target group, a member selection interface may be displayed for the terminal user according to the needs of the terminal user, so that the user may conveniently and quickly select members in the target group corresponding to a currently operated group session interface from the member selection interface, so as to send targeted information to the members.

The terminal user opens the instant communication application on the mobile terminal, and after logging in the target account, the instant communication application can be used for chatting and exchanging with individuals or a group. When the user opens a certain target group added by the user, a group session interface is displayed, and the mobile terminal detects input characters on the group session interface of the instant messaging application in which the target account is logged in S201. Mainly detects whether the character in the character input box is the designated character on the group conversation interface, if the character is the designated character, for example, the character @, the following S202 is executed. If the characters are common characters, for example, non-specified characters such as common English letters, Chinese characters and the like which are input through a keyboard input box, the non-specified characters are used as interactive information to be published, and the interactive information is sent to each group member of the target group according to a sending process. In an embodiment, the instant messaging application is provided with a terminal identification logic, and when the instant messaging application is running, it is determined whether the terminal currently running the instant messaging application is a mobile terminal whose screen size satisfies the mobile terminal condition (for example, when the screen size is smaller than 10 inches, the mobile terminal condition is satisfied), and if so, the method performs the step S201 and subsequent steps including the embodiment of the present invention according to the instant messaging processing rule set for the mobile terminal. If not, executing the instant messaging application processing flow according to the instant messaging processing rule set for the large-screen terminal such as the personal computer.

In S202, if the detection result is: when detecting that the input character is a trigger character for triggering user notification, acquiring the position of a character input box of the group session interface; in the embodiment of the invention, the display position of the member selection interface required to be displayed to the terminal user is determined according to the display position of the character input box on the terminal screen, the member selection interface is displayed at the display position of the member selection interface determined according to the display position of the character input box, so that the member selection interface and the character input box can be simultaneously displayed on the terminal screen, and if the keyboard input box and the character input box are simultaneously displayed on the terminal screen, the member selection interface is displayed at the display position of the member selection interface determined according to the display position of the character input box, so that the member selection interface, the character input box and the keyboard input box can be simultaneously displayed on the terminal screen.

The mobile terminal generates a member selection interface in S203, wherein group member information of the target group is recorded on the member selection interface, the display height of the member selection interface is determined according to the number of group members in the target group, and the display width of the member selection interface is determined according to the display width of a terminal screen; the mobile terminal executes the steps S202 and S203 not sequentially, or even simultaneously. The direction of the display height is the current vertical display direction of the mobile terminal, and in the vertical screen mode, the vertical size of the mobile terminal is larger than the horizontal size, for example, fig. 3 is the vertical screen mode, and fig. 3 shows the significance of the display height and the display width. It can be simply understood that the direction of viewing the end user's eyes up and down is straight, while the direction of viewing the end user's eyes left and right is horizontal.

In one embodiment, the member selection interface displays the group member information in a list form, and as shown in fig. 3 and the like, the display height of the member selection interface is determined according to the number of the group members in the searched target group and the preset minimum height value and the maximum height value. In one embodiment, when the number of group members in the target group is only 3, the display height of the member selection interface is a preset minimum value, on the member selection interface with the display height being the minimum value, group member information of other members except the target account number, for example, information such as head portrait, name and the like of the other two members shown in fig. 3, is displayed, further, on the member selection interface with the display height being the minimum value, other information, for example, information representing all members, robot information set in the target group and the like, can be displayed, and these group robots can provide additional functions for the end user, for example, a query function such as weather query and the like. When the number of group members exceeds a certain value, for example 6, the display height of the member selection interface is the initial maximum value. Of course, the member selection interface is further provided with a sliding detection rule, and when a specified sliding gesture on the member selection interface is detected, the display height of the member selection interface may be changed again on the basis of the initial maximum value, for example, the keyboard entry box in fig. 3 is not displayed any more, but the height of the member selection interface is increased. And adjusting the display width of the member selection interface according to the width of the terminal screen, wherein the display width is not more than the width of the terminal screen.

The mobile terminal displays the member selection interface in a terminal screen in S204, wherein a display position of the member selection interface on the terminal screen is determined according to a position of a character input box of the group session interface, and the member selection interface and the character input box are displayed on the terminal screen at least at the same time.

The above-mentioned S201 to S204 will be described in detail with reference to the terminal interface diagrams shown in fig. 3 to 12.

In one embodiment, a specific interface layout for displaying a member selection interface on a terminal screen of a mobile terminal is shown in fig. 3, and a member selection interface 301, a character input box 302, and a keyboard input box 303 are simultaneously displayed in the terminal screen in fig. 3. In the layout of fig. 3, a user may select one or more members in the member selection interface 301, and for a mobile terminal, a selection operation of group member information recorded on the member selection interface 301 is detected; displaying one or more pieces of group member information selected by the selection operation in real time in the character input box 302, wherein the specific display mode is as shown in fig. 3, the group member information is displayed in a list form in fig. 3, in the list shown in fig. 3, each row displays one piece of group member information and also displays one selection mark, and the display style of the selection mark of the group member information selected by the selection operation and the selection mark of the group member information not selected by the selection operation on the list are different. The group member information of the selected member is displayed in the character input box 302, and mainly includes the name (or called nickname) of the selected member, and meanwhile, the selection mark (i.e. the circle before the group member information in fig. 3) before the corresponding selected group member information in the member selection interface 301 is checked.

If the number of the target group members is large, all the group member information cannot be completely displayed on the initially generated and displayed member selection interface, so that in one embodiment, when the member selection interface is generated, the group member information of the target group is searched, and the group member information can be searched in a memory, a hard disk database or an instant messaging application server according to the target account number and the group identifier of the target group; classifying the searched group member information according to the group member notification history recorded for the target account, and determining historical group member information and common group member information, wherein the classification is mainly performed according to the group member information which is independently notified in the group member notification history within a recent period of time; and generating a member selection interface for recording the historical group member information and the common group member information in a classified manner according to the classification result. When the group member information is displayed, according to the group member notification history in the terminal, the first group member and other group member information, i.e. the second group member information, which are initiated by the terminal user to individually notify within a certain period of time are displayed in a classified manner. As shown in fig. 4, the generated member selection interface includes first group member information 401 of the most recent @ partial record and second group member information 402 of the group member partial record.

And, in one embodiment, at least first notification object information and second notification object information are recorded on the member selection interface; the first type notification object identification comprises: the group member information in the target group obtained by searching can be all group member information specifically; the second notification object information includes: an object identifier for indicating that all group members can be notified or an object identifier for indicating a robot set in a notification target group; or, the second type notification object includes: an object identifier for indicating that all group members can be notified, and an object identifier for indicating a robot set in the notification target group. As shown in fig. 4 in particular, the first type notification object id 404 includes the group member information of the latest @ part and the group member information of the group member part in fig. 4, and the second type notification object id 403 includes the group member id that can initiate the notification of the group member.

Further, in the case of a large number of group members, the generated member selection interface displays only part of the group member information, and in one embodiment, a sliding event is set for the member selection interface, so that when a sliding operation specified on the member selection interface is detected, the remaining group member information can be continuously displayed, and in the sliding process, the number of the group member information recorded in the member selection interface is unchanged, and only the group member information which is not displayed before the sliding operation is updated and displayed. In one embodiment, the height of the member selection interface can be adjusted along with the sliding operation, so that more group member information can be displayed conveniently, and after the member selection interface is displayed, the mobile terminal detects the sliding operation on the member selection interface; and adjusting the display height of the member selection interface according to the sliding operation, wherein the number of the group member information displayed on the member selection interface after the height adjustment is displayed is larger than that of the group member information displayed on the member selection interface before the height adjustment is displayed. And after detecting the sliding operation on the member selection interface, the mobile terminal also retracts the keyboard input box, and only the member selection interface and the character input box after the display height is adjusted are displayed on the terminal screen. The number of pieces of group member information recorded on the member selection interface shown in fig. 4 is larger than that recorded on the member selection interface shown in fig. 3, and a keyboard input box is not included on the interface shown in fig. 4, and only the member selection interface after the display height adjustment and the character input box are displayed.

In one embodiment, in addition to updating and displaying the information of the group members which are not currently displayed in an up-and-down sliding mode, a searching function for a member selection interface is further arranged, before the keyboard input box is received, or after the keyboard input box is received, a terminal user clicks the character input box again to call the keyboard input box, the user can input English letters or Chinese characters through the keyboard input box to perform group member query, and when the mobile terminal detects that the characters are input through the keyboard input box after the trigger characters, the input characters are used as searching keywords, and the group member information of the target group is searched and obtained; and determining the display updating height of a display interface according to the number of the target members determined by the target group member information, and updating the target group member information searched by the record in the member selection interface according to the determined display updating height. Specifically, the first letter of the nickname of the information of each group member, or the first Chinese character, or the account of the instant messaging application may be used for querying. When the english letters are input by the user, the initial letters of the nicknames of the group member information are queried, that is, the initial letter of the nickname of the target group member information obtained by querying is the same as the letter input by the terminal user, for example, if a character X is input after @ in fig. 5, the character X is used as a search key, and the first letters of the nicknames of the searched group members "xiao mao" and "xiaoguo" are both "X"; if the input Chinese characters are the nicknames, the first Chinese character of the nickname is used as the basis for inquiring, namely the first Chinese character of the nickname of the target group member information obtained by inquiring is the same as the Chinese character input by the terminal user; if the number is input, the inquiry is carried out based on the first number of the account of the instant messaging application, namely the first number of the account of the target group member information obtained by inquiry is the same as the number input by the terminal user. Of course, rather than comparing the character entered by the end user with the first character at the corresponding location, it may be specified that the character at the second, last, etc. location is compared with the character entered by the end user to search for target group member information.

According to the search result, different data of the target group member information correspond to different display updating heights, the display updating height is also between a minimum value and an initial maximum value, the display updating height of the member selection interface recording the search result is not lower than the minimum value nor higher than the initial maximum value, if more target group member information are searched, when the sliding operation is detected, the height of the member selection interface can be adjusted according to the requirement, and the adjusted height can be larger than the initial maximum value.

After the terminal user selects the selection mark before the corresponding group member information on the member selection interface through selection operations such as clicking, namely the circle 502 displayed before the group member information, on one hand, the display style of the circle 502 is different from the selection mark of the unselected group member information, on the other hand, the selected group member information or group member information is displayed in the character input box, and in one embodiment, the selected group member information replaces the display position of the keyword input by the terminal user. And further, as can be seen from fig. 5, according to the height of the member selection interface, the interaction information display frame on the conversation interface can also be partially displayed to the terminal user.

In an embodiment of the present invention, after the searched target group member information is recorded in the member selection interface in an updated manner, the user may wish to re-display the complete group member information of the target group on the member selection interface instead of the searched group member information. The trigger flag information may be a designated character, such as @ character 501 in fig. 5.

For a member selection interface which records all group member information of a target group or only records group member information obtained by searching, various exit operations are provided in the embodiment of the application. Specifically, if the mobile terminal detects the exit operation of the member selection interface, the member selection interface is cancelled to be displayed, and at the moment, the member selection interface is not displayed on the terminal screen; wherein the detected exit operation comprises: selecting and operating a closing button arranged on the member selection interface; starting a sliding operation from a closing area on the member selection interface towards the character input box; and any one or more operations of clicking operation of a display area displayed on the terminal screen except the member selection interface, the character input box and the keyboard input box. In the aforementioned interface drawings of the member selection interface, the position with the closing word may be understood as a closing button, for example, a closing button 605 in fig. 6, and a closing area is also shown in fig. 6, the closing area may be an area other than an area in which group member information is recorded on the member selection interface, or may be only an area covered by the closing mark 606, and when a downward sliding operation on the closing area 606 is detected, it is considered that the user has initiated a logout operation. The operation of clicking a blank area, which is a display area other than the member selection interface, the character input box, and the keyboard input box, such as the area 607 and the area 608 in fig. 6, may be regarded as the exit operation of the member selection interface, and the member selection interface may exit after clicking these areas. The finger click in fig. 6 can achieve the operation purpose of closing the member selection interface.

After detecting the exit operation of the member selection interface, the member selection interface is closed, the displayed interface is as shown in fig. 6, and only the group information 601 is displayed, specifically including the group name, the number of group members, and the like, the interactive information display frame 602, the character input frame 603, and the keyboard input frame 604, even the keyboard input frame 604 may not be displayed first, and when detecting the click operation on the character input frame 603, the keyboard input frame 604 is called and displayed. On the first interface of fig. 6, the end user may enter characters in a normal manner to send a prompt to the user to be reminded.

As described above, regardless of whether all group member information of the target group or the group member information obtained by searching is recorded on the member selection interface, the display height of the member selection interface may be adjusted according to the number of group member information that needs to be recorded, or the display height of the member selection interface may be dynamically adjusted according to the sliding update operation of the user. The display width can be kept constant according to the transverse width of the terminal screen or dynamically changed according to the recorded information length of the group member information, for example, when the information length of each group member information is short, the display width of the member selection interface is narrowed, and if the information with the longer information length exists in the group member information, the display width of the member selection interface is widened.

In addition, no matter after the terminal user inputs trigger characters such as @ or the like, or inputs trigger characters such as @ or the like and inputs search keywords to search group member information, a member selection interface without loading group member information can be displayed first, then after all group member information of a target group is searched and determined, or group member information corresponding to the keywords is searched and obtained, the group member information is recorded on the member selection interface and displayed to the terminal user, as shown in fig. 7, a member selection interface 701 for recording the group member information but not recording the group member information is firstly generated, a prompt which is being loaded can be displayed on the member selection interface 701, the member selection interface 701 can also be called as a member selection initial interface, after the complete group member information is searched and obtained, or the group member information meeting the requirements of the keywords is searched and obtained, the group member information is then added to the member selection interface 701, a member selection interface 702 is obtained in which some or all of the group member information for the target group is recorded. On the member selection interface 702 where some or all of the group member information of the target group is recorded, the user may slide up and down in the recording area 703 to load more group member information. And aiming at each detected sliding-up operation, acquiring a preset amount of group member information from the rest searched but undisplayed group member information, and displaying the group member information on the member selection interface, so that the terminal user can successively select all the required group member users who want to send the independent notifications.

In one embodiment, a robot may also be provided in the target group, which may provide functions such as query, conversation chat, etc. to the users in the group. Such as querying weather, querying historical information records, etc., one or more robots may be set up in the target group. As shown in fig. 8a, a robot identifier 801 may be displayed on the member selection interface, after detecting a selection operation on the robot identifier, the mobile terminal may display a secondary interface 802 set for the member selection interface, display one or more pieces of robot information 803 on the secondary interface 802, and set a robot identification flag for the nicknames on the secondary interface 802 in order to indicate that the objects corresponding to the nicknames are group robots, and may serve as a robot identification flag, such as a robot identification flag 805 in fig. 8a (i.e., circled AI indicates a robot identification flag) in a manner of characters, icons, and the like. The robot identification corresponds to the aforementioned second notification object information, or further corresponds to an object identification for indicating a robot set in the notification target group. The second-level interface 802 has the same ability of responding to the user operation as the member selection interface corresponding to the first-level interface, and can specifically detect that the user selection operation selects a specific robot, the size of the second-level interface 802 can also be changed according to the number of the robots, and a terminal user can display more robot information in a sliding manner, and still can perform the robot search operation, and the like.

In one embodiment, if the mobile terminal detects a selection operation on the robot information displayed on the secondary interface, the robot information selected by the selection operation is used as the target robot information. After the target robot information is selected, the selection mark corresponding to the target robot information is different from the selection marks of other robot information, for example, a circle frame in front of the robot of which the target robot information is a chat helper is checked.

After the terminal user selects and determines the target robot information, the mobile terminal displays the target robot information in the character input box, as shown in the right diagram of fig. 8a, in one embodiment, the target robot may have two display modes in the character input box, including a first display mode and a second display mode, the display characteristics or the display effects of the first display mode and the second display mode are different, in the first display mode, the target robot information is highlighted or bolded in the character input box, and in the second display mode, the target robot is displayed in the character input box according to the current display rule of the character input box, in the current input rule of the character input box, at least the display mode of the first display mode is not included, for example, the highlight display or the bolded display is not included, as shown in fig. 8b, the first display mode is taken as an example of font inclination to indicate that the first display mode and the second display mode are different, and in one embodiment, when the first display mode displays the target robot information, one or more group assistance functions that can be realized by the target robot can also be displayed on the session interface, for example, in fig. 8b, for the target robot named as a chat helper, the functions that can be realized by the target robot, such as function 1 (e.g. weather query function), function 2 (e.g. travel information query function) and function 3 (e.g. market discount query function), are included, therefore, a function icon 804 is set and displayed on the session interface, and the end user can click any function button according to the requirement, such as function 3 is a query function, and after clicking function 3, the end user can realize functions such as weather query, and the like, Market discount queries, and the like. After a terminal user starts inputting characters in the character input box, the display mode of the target robot information is switched to the second display mode, meanwhile, each function button is cancelled to be displayed, and certainly, the display can be continued according to needs, so that the terminal user can switch back and forth among each function as required at any time. In the case where the function button is not displayed, in one embodiment, processing logic for redisplaying the target robot information is also provided, for example, the end user can click on "chat assistant" in the drawing shown on the right side of fig. 8b, at which point the mobile terminal redisplays the function buttons on the session interface, and the target robot information switches to the first mode display, i.e., the drawing shown on the left side of fig. 8b is displayed again.

Displaying the target robot information in a character input box, closing the secondary interface when detecting the characters input in the character input box, and calling the functions corresponding to the target robot information to process the characters input and sent in the character input box; after the terminal user selects and determines the target robot information, the user can input chat characters, such as information of weather, road condition query of a designated area and the like, and the robot automatically executes processing of network search, analysis, notification and the like. When it is detected that the terminal user enters characters in the character input box, as the information corresponding to the selected group member in fig. 6, the secondary interface is closed, and the interactive information display box is displayed, so that the information input and sent by the terminal user and directed to the robot is received, and the robot is called to process the information. As shown in fig. 9, the chat robot can process weather information, and in the embodiment of the present invention, in order to distinguish whether the user is sending information to the target robot but not to other users in the group, the chat information sent by the end user is provided with a machine sending identifier, for example, the identifier (@ chat robot) 901 in fig. 9, for indicating that the information is sent to the target robot. In this manner, the other users in the target group are made aware of the chat objects of the end user. Of course, in one embodiment, the chat message between the end user and the target bot can also be displayed only on the end user's session interface, and the other users in the target group do not see the session message between the end user and the target bot selected by the end user.

When a switching operation of the target robot information displayed in the character input box is detected, the secondary interface in which one or more pieces of robot information are recorded is displayed again. If the end user wishes to invoke another robot, for example, if the end user realizes that the robot is selected by mistake, and the current robot cannot perform the function that the end user wants weather inquiry, etc., the user may initiate a switching operation on the target robot information displayed in the character input box to switch to the other robot, which may be a long press operation, for example, a long press operation of 2 seconds, on the target robot information displayed in the character input box in one embodiment. And under the triggering of switching operation such as long-time press operation and the like, after the secondary interface is displayed again, the terminal user can select and determine the target robot information again in the robot information displayed on the secondary interface. As shown in particular in fig. 10.

In other embodiments, the member selection interface may also display the group member information in the form of a member avatar icon, for the member selection interface displayed in the form of a group member avatar icon, the terminal user may also perform a corresponding user operation on the interface, and display the member selection interface in the form of a member avatar icon as shown in fig. 11, in the interface shown in fig. 11, a character input box 1101, a keyboard input box 1102, a member selection interface 1103, an interaction information display box 1104, and group information 1105 are simultaneously displayed, and a plurality of group member avatar icons are displayed in the member selection interface 1103, where these group member avatar icons are merely examples, and different group members basically have different avatar icons to facilitate the terminal user to distinguish.

Displaying a switching button on the member selection interface, updating the member selection interface when the selection operation of the switching button is detected, and displaying group member information in a list form on the member selection interface, wherein the displaying of the group member information in the list form means: each row of the list shows one group member information. After the last group member information is slid and displayed, a display switching button 1106 may be further displayed, and when the terminal user clicks the display switching button, a member selection interface for displaying the group member information in a list form at the lower left corner of fig. 11 may be displayed, and the specific form of the member selection interface displayed at the lower left corner of fig. 11 may refer to the form in the corresponding drawings described above.

In addition, when group member information is displayed in the form of member avatar icons, the display colors of one or more member avatar icons selected by a selected operation and member avatar icons not selected by the selected operation are different, as in the drawing in the upper right corner in fig. 11, the avatar of the user with a nickname "ee" is darker than the avatar icons of the other two group members. Of course, there are other display modes, for example, an icon bar for recording the selected avatar icon is additionally displayed on the member selection interface, so that the terminal user can conveniently determine and clarify the information of the group members which the terminal user has selected. The display height of the member selection interface shown in fig. 11 may also be adjusted and changed according to the actual number of group member information, and the avatar icon of the group member in the group member information may be recorded and displayed by one field, two fields, or even more fields, as shown in fig. 12.

In the technical implementation of the instant messaging application in the embodiment of the present invention, a network layer, a data layer, a UI layer, and a service layer are designed for the instant messaging application. The network layer is responsible for completing interaction with the back end, and the interaction comprises the functions of protocol packaging, unpacking, requesting background service, acquiring a selection list data source and the like. The data layer provides data required by the instant messaging application, particularly the group member information mentioned above. The member selection interface provided by the UI layer does not completely occupy the whole terminal screen, a container is adopted to bear the display of the list UI, and the container externally provides functional interfaces such as an interface for closing the panel and updating the height of the panel. And the service layer calls an interface closing panel of the container when clicking a closing button and a blank area, pulling down the panel and clicking a shortcut bar. And when the data layer is changed, the height of the keyboard is changed, the search result is recalled, and the selection panel slides to recall, the data is assigned to the list UI container, so that the selection panel is refreshed.

In generating the member selection interface, in addition to generating the interface based on the aforementioned UI container, how to search for group member information that can be displayed to the end user on the member selection interface. After the instant messaging application is installed on the mobile terminal, different databases are set in a database of the mobile terminal according to different account numbers of a terminal user, a target account number corresponds to one database, group data such as group information, group member information and the like of one or more groups to which the target account number is added are at least stored in the database, and the group member information stored in the database is pulled from an instant messaging application server. Meanwhile, in the process of running the installed instant messaging application, the mobile terminal can load part or all of the data of the target account of the instant messaging application into a memory. Based on this, in one embodiment, in generating the member selection interface, the following steps are included:

searching group member information included in the target group in a memory storage area corresponding to the instant messaging application according to the target account; if the group member information included in the target group is not searched in the memory storage area, searching the group member information included in the target group in a database corresponding to the instant messaging application; and if the group member information included by the target group is searched and determined in the database or the group member information included by the target group is searched and obtained in the memory, generating a member selection interface for recording the searched group member information according to the searched group member information. That is, if the group member information included in the target group is not searched in the memory, the group member information is searched from the database. In an embodiment, as long as the related group member information can be searched in the memory or the database, a member selection interface for recording the group member information may be generated, and if the group member information of the target group is not searched, the group member information of the target group may be further searched in the application server of the instant messaging application, so as to generate the member selection interface.

In an embodiment, if group member information is not searched in the memory, group member information is not searched in the database, or the number of the group member information searched in the memory or the database is different from the number of the network registrations of the group member information of the target group, the group member information of the target group is searched from an application server corresponding to the instant messaging application. The network registration number of the group member information of the target group is the latest number of the group members in the target group recorded in the application server, and may be specifically obtained from the application server corresponding to the instant messaging application, at this time, only the number needs to be determined, if the number of the group member information searched in the memory or the database is consistent with the registration number registered in the instant messaging application, a member selection interface may be directly generated by using the group member information searched in the memory or the database, and if the number of the group member information searched in the memory or the database is not consistent with the network registration number in the application server of the instant messaging application, the group member information of the target group needs to be searched from the application server again.

In another embodiment, generating the member selection interface includes: searching group member information included in the target group in a memory storage area corresponding to the instant messaging application according to the target account; if the group member information included in the target group is searched in the memory storage area, judging whether the number of the searched group member information is the same as the local registration number of the group member information of the target group; if the group member information of the target group is different from the group member information of the target group, or the group member information of the target group is not searched in the memory storage area, searching the group member information of the target group in a database corresponding to the instant messaging application; and generating a member selection interface for recording the searched group member information. The local registration number of the group member information of the target group may refer to the number recorded in the database, and since the data volume of the instant messaging application may be large, the data of the instant messaging application may not be completely cached in the memory, but the memory may store the number of the group members of each group of the target account, that is, the local registration number.

Further, if group member information is not searched in the database, or the number of the group member information searched in the memory or the database is different from the network registration number of the group member information of the target group, searching an application server corresponding to the instant messaging application to obtain the group member information of the target group. The network registration number of the group member information of the target group may be specifically obtained from an application server corresponding to the instant messaging application, and if the number of the network registration number of the group member information of the target group is the same as the number of the network registration number of the group member information of the instant messaging application, the group member information of the target group searched in a memory or a database may be directly used, or if the number of the network registration number of the group member information of the target group is not the same as the number of the network registration number of the group member information of the instant messaging application, the latest complete group member information about the target group needs to be searched from the application server.

In an embodiment, please refer to fig. 13, which is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for searching group member information and generating a member selection interface according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the method flow described in the schematic diagram corresponds to the step of generating the member selection interface in the foregoing embodiment, and the generating method may be executed by a mobile terminal.

S1301: detecting whether group member information of a target group exists in data cached in a terminal memory, wherein the target group refers to a group currently operated by a terminal user in instant messaging application logging in a target account, for example, a group session interface inputs trigger characters such as @ and the like, and initiates a group of notification operation aiming at part or all members. If the determination result is no, S1303 described below is executed, and if the determination result is yes, S1302 described below is executed.

S1302: detecting whether the number of the group member information of the target group cached in the memory of the terminal is consistent with the local registration number of the group member information of the target group. In some cases, the number of groups of the instant messaging application is large, and the data size of the group member information is large, so that the memory does not acquire all data of the instant messaging application in real time and cache the group member information in all the groups, but the memory caches and records the number of group members of each group, that is, the local registration number, which is cached, according to the number of group members in the database or the number of group members acquired from the server last time, the step S1302 is executed to mainly determine whether to cache the target account number and the group member information of the target group in the database in the memory. If all the data is cached in the memory, that is, if the determination result of S1302 is yes, S1304 described below is executed, and if not, S1303 described below is executed.

S1303: and searching group member information of the target group from a database set for the target account in the instant messaging application. Typically, the database stores all relevant data of the target account of the instant messaging application, but the data may not be up to date, for example, a new member is added to the target group, and the database does not synchronize the member information of the new member for the target group from the application server in real time.

S1304: and extracting the searched group member information for the instant messaging application. The loaded group member information may be group member information searched from a memory in S1301 or group member information searched from a database in S1303, where the group member information of the target group is obtained in the database even though the group member information may not be the latest group member information of the target group.

S1305: and detecting whether the network is normal. If normal, the following S1306 is executed, and if not normal, the following S1307 is executed. The detection of whether the network of the mobile terminal is normal or not can adopt a common technology, and the embodiment of the invention is not described again.

S1306: and judging whether the number of the searched group member information is the same as the network registration number of the group member information of the target group, namely judging whether the number of the group member information loaded by the instant messaging application which logs in the target account is the same as the network registration number corresponding to the target account and the target group in the application server. In the step S1304, only the target account and the number of group members corresponding to the target group (i.e., the number of network registrations) need to be determined from the application server. If the determination result in S1306 is yes, S1307 is executed, and if the determination result in S1304 is no, S1308 described below is executed.

S1307: and triggering and executing the following S1311 to generate a member selection interface by taking the information extracted from the memory or the database as local data.

S1308: and searching and obtaining the group member information of the target group from an application server corresponding to the instant messaging application. The application server records the target account number and the complete group member information of the target group, and acquires the information from the application server under the condition that the complete group member information can not be acquired in the memory and the database, so that, the member selection list is generated without frequently acquiring data from the application server, and, in most cases, the latest group data has been retrieved from the application server in the locally stored database according to the existing data synchronization logic, when the member selection interface is generated, the searching and the obtaining of the complete group member information of the target group can be met from the database, the information is obtained from the application server only under a small amount of scenes, for example, just after a new member has been added to the target group, the @ trigger character is entered by the group member, and the group member notification process is initiated, in which case, there may be situations where the data in the database is inconsistent with the data in the application server. In an extreme case, if the complete group member information of the target group cannot be acquired from the application server, it may be enough to consider that the network is abnormal or the application server is abnormal and send an abnormal notification to the terminal user.

S1309: and updating the group member data of the target group in a database according to the group member information of the target group searched from the application server corresponding to the instant messaging application.

S1310: and updating the group member data of the target group in the memory according to the group member information of the target group, which is obtained by searching from the application server corresponding to the instant messaging application.

S1311: after the latest group member information of the target group is acquired, a member selection interface is generated, where the member selection interface may be generated according to local data, that is, according to the group member information of the target group directly acquired from a memory or a database, or according to the group member information of the target group acquired from the application server in S1308. Meanwhile, the group member list on the group session interface of the target group in the instant messaging application can be refreshed, so that the latest group member information can be displayed to the terminal user.
