Description

Method, apparatus and computer medium for coupling business logic and technical place understanding

Technical Field

The present invention extends to methods, apparatus, and computer media for coupling business logic to technology. In particular, the invention relates to the field of software development, and in particular to decoupling of business from technology in software development.

Background

In the modern software development process, in most cases, developers will use technical modes to implement according to each link in the business process in turn.

For example, in an account management system, when a customer charges his account, the implementation of the existing system is as follows: 1. according to the account ID of the client, an SQL sentence is established, and a corresponding account is found from a database; 2. obtaining the balance of the account, and increasing the value of the balance by the number to be recharged; 3. after the balance is increased by the number, a new SQL sentence is spliced and executed in a database, and then a new value of the account balance is saved; 4. and various service related checks should be made in the process. In addition, the dirty reading is avoided by locking and the like, namely, the fact that other people cannot read and modify the balance of the account during the execution of the process is ensured.

The above-described process represents an existing daily software system development workflow. Here, a business activity may be summarized by a "business model", for example, when an account exists, the balance of the account may be increased, and various checks may be required in the process of the increase, such as whether or not the excess is exceeded, etc. The business model is typically developed by a business expert and implemented in coded form by a developer. Most of the time, the business model should be a bridge for the developer to communicate with the business specialist, and is a communication language that can be recognized by both parties.

In the development process of the software system, the service codes only contain service knowledge, accurately and simply express the essence of the service model, and express the knowledge from the perspective of service personnel so as to be convenient for the two parties to communicate. Meanwhile, along with the upgrading and updating of the technology, the implementation methods of many bottom technologies are changed continuously, and the changes are irrelevant to business knowledge, so that business codes are not affected by the technological changes to be modified, and unnecessary workload and even risks are avoided.

To solve this problem, it is desirable to implement a method or tool that does not include technical processes such as querying a database and saving the database in the business logic code for account balance increase, and that allows the system to "automatically" save the account balance after the business logic has been processed.

Detailed Description

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the present invention will be further described below by referring to the accompanying drawings and examples.

As used herein, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless expressly stated otherwise. It will be further understood that the terms "comprises" and/or "comprising," when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.

Fig. 1 is a flow chart illustrating a method 100 for coupling business logic to technology site understanding in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, at step 102, a query request is received by a querier and a business model is queried to return customized query results. In one example, the business model may be an account model and the query request may be a query request for the account model. In this example, the query request may include information related to the account model, such as an account ID, an account password, and so forth.

At step 104, customized query results are received from the querier and processing of business logic is performed according to the customized query results. In one example, the querier may return customized query results, such as customized account objects, based on the account ID included in the query request. The returned customized query results may include business logic associated with the business model. For example, in the above example, the customized account object may include business logic such as a method of increasing a balance. In one example, the obtained customized query results may be customized to include only business logic and not technical processing logic, such as technical processing that does not include query databases and save databases.

At step 106, a determination is made as to whether the custom query result includes a processing token (which may also be referred to herein as an annotation). In one example, the process tag may be one code type in the JAVA language for tagging other codes. However, the process marking is not limited to being implemented by the JAVA language, and the marking mechanism may be implemented in a variety of programming languages, such as C, C ++, C#, python, and the like.

At step 108, if the custom query result includes a processing tag, the processing tag is processed to invoke technology processing logic corresponding to the processing tag to perform technology processing. In one example, the process tag may be, for example, a tag corresponding to various technical processes, such as the "@ save" tag. In an example where the returned customized query result is a customized account object, after execution of business logic, such as the add balance method, is completed, technical processing logic corresponding to the processing indicia is invoked to perform technical processing. For example, the customized account object may automatically invoke logic of the account processor corresponding to the "@ save" flag that stores account data to a database. In a further example, the querier may be configured to add a processing token to the customized query result based on information included in the query request. For example, if a request from the outside wishes to issue a notification to the account-holder after executing the method of increasing the balance, the querier may add a notification flag (@ info) to the customized account object in response to the request. Thus, after execution of business logic such as the add balance method is completed, processing logic corresponding to the "@ info" flag to notify account changes may be automatically invoked upon an external request. Further, various process markers may be defined as desired to implement various technical processes, including, for example, but not limited to, markers shown in the following table.

Sequence number	Label name	Technology processing of implementation
			1	@Save	Automatic preservation
2	@needLogin	If the user needs to log in, the program can judge whether the current user logs in.
			3	@InternalCalls	Judging whether the current requester is an intranet system or not, and if not, not allowing the current method to be executed
4	@Warn	When the method is executed, an alarm mechanism of the system is triggered

By the above method according to an embodiment of the present invention, a business model written by a developer may include only business logic, without considering the implementation of this model at the technical level, i.e. technical processing logic. By the method, the service model is developed, so that developers and service specialists can communicate efficiently based on the model. Further, by defining processing tokens and adding various processing tokens to custom query results as desired, various technical processing logic can be flexibly and efficiently invoked.

Referring now to FIG. 2, a flow diagram of a method 200 for coupling business logic to technology understanding is shown, according to one embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the middle column shows the business logic building portion of interest to the developer and business specialist. Specifically, in one example, a developer may build an account model that may include various methods performed on an account, such as a method of increasing a balance, a method of warning of balance change, and so forth. Various tools constructed in accordance with embodiments of the invention are shown in the right column, including building a series of process marks and building a querier for the account model in the example above.

In the flow illustrated in FIG. 2, at step 202, a request for an account model from outside is received and sent to a querier to query an account object. For example, the request may be an increase balance request for a particular account. At step 204, the querier returns query results, such as account objects, based on information, such as account IDs from external requests. At step 206, an add balance method for the account corresponding to the account ID is invoked and the balance desired to be added is entered based on the returned account object. At step 208, after the balance increasing method is performed, if it is determined that the processing token is included in the account object returned by the querier, technical processing corresponding to the processing token is automatically performed, such as storing account data to a database when the processing token is @ save, and so on.

The methods of the present invention described above with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2 may be implemented in a variety of programming languages, including JAVA, C, C++, C#, python, and the like, as the present invention is not limited in this regard. Further, these methods may be implemented by an open source framework such as CGLIB, as the invention is not limited in this respect.

As an example, in a CGLIB-based framework, after the method in the account object is executed, if the method includes @ save method, then the method in the account object is automatically found (the object is an object for saving the account object to the database, and includes a technical implementation purely oriented to database operations), and the save method in the account object is executed. It should be noted that several annotations (i.e., processing tags as above) may be defined. For example, when a developer wishes that an account be automatically saved after a certain operation (e.g., increasing the balance) is performed, this annotation @ save can be added to this method. By the annotation, a developer does not need to write save logic by himself, and further the developer does not need to care about what mode is adopted for storing account balances.

In the CGLIB-based framework described above, the querier may be implemented to include a create method that may be invoked when a developer attempts to acquire an account object in code of business logic. According to the accountId (i.e. the request from the outside) input by the external caller, the querier obtains and returns a customized accountant object, the external appearance of which is consistent with the 'original business object', but which is generated by ProxyUtil class through the byte code generation technology of CGLIB. The ProxyUtil class uses CGLIB techniques to generate this custom account object. Thus, the external program calls the addBalance method of account to increase the balance. Then, because the addBalance method contains @ Save comments, the Save method of the recollection class marked on the Account class, namely the Account recollection method, is executed, so that the operation of automatically saving the latest Account balance to the database is realized.

Referring now to fig. 3, shown is a block diagram 300 of an apparatus for coupling business logic and technology understanding in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, apparatus 300 may include a querier 302, a business logic processing module 304, and a label processing module 306. The querier 302 is configured to receive the query request and query the business model to return the customized query result. As an example, the querier 302 may receive the query request directly from the outside, or may receive the query request from the outside via a business model. The business logic processing module 304 receives the customized query results from the querier and performs the processing of the business logic according to the customized query results. By way of example, business logic processing module 304 performs processing of business logic included in the business model based on various objects returned by the custom query results. The tag processing module 306 is configured to determine whether the customized query result includes a processing tag; and if the customized query result includes a processing tag, processing the processing tag to invoke technology processing logic corresponding to the processing tag to perform technology processing. In one example, the querier 302 may also add processing tokens to the customized query results based on information included in the query request. For example, the querier 302 may add a processing tag according to the requirements of an external program, so that after executing the processing of business logic, various technical processing logic corresponding to the added processing tag may be called to execute the required various technical processing. In various embodiments, the apparatus 300 may be used to perform the steps of any of the methods as described above.

The solution implemented according to various embodiments of the present invention decouples business from technology so that business professionals and developers can focus on expressing the nature of the business model without concern for the implementation of complex and extensive underlying technologies. By the technology of the invention, developers can be helped to build a purer service model without being limited by the implementation mode of the specific technology.
