DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
In this embodiment, the programming support technology of the present invention is applied to a computer that performs object-oriented programming. Incidentally, object-oriented programming has a programming step of developing a source program by developing a single object by combining a plurality of classes and further associating one object with another object. A class is a collection of functions that are in the form of procedures that receive data called arguments, execute processing according to rules, and output the results. In many programming languages, functions that are frequently used are defined. It is prepared in advance as a function.
[0010]
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a main part of a programming apparatus that performs object-oriented programming. In the figure, a frame surrounded by a two-dot chain line of reference numeral 1 shows a programming apparatus main body. The programming device main body 1 is configured by a computer, and includes a programming basic function unit 11, a storage unit 12, an input / output interface unit 13, a communication control unit 14, and a programming support function unit 15.

For example, a non-volatile storage medium such as a hard disk or a magneto-optical disk is used.
[0013]
One program file 121 stores one type of source program, and the storage unit 12 has a program folder 124 that collectively stores the program files 121 of the source programs being developed.
[0014]
The input / output interface unit 13 has a function of supplying a data signal input by operating the operation unit 2 connected to the programming device main body 1 to the programming basic function unit 11 and display data provided from the programming basic function unit 11 as a programming device. It has a function of outputting to the display unit 3 connected to the main body 1. As the operation unit 2, a keyboard, a pointing device, or the like is used. As the display unit 3, a screen display such as a CRT display or a liquid crystal display is used.
[0015]
The communication control unit 14 controls data communication performed with an external computer device via a communication medium such as a LAN (Local Area Network).
[0016]
The programming support function unit 15 has a file management function 151, a code block registration function 152, and a code block insertion function 153. The programming support function unit 15 includes the CPU and a memory storing a programming support program. The programming support program is installed in the memory of the programming device main body 1 from an external computer device by wire or wirelessly via a communication medium connected to the communication control unit 14. Alternatively, the program is stored in a computer-readable storage medium such as a CD-ROM or a flexible disk, and is installed in the memory of the programming apparatus main body 1 via a reader such as a disk drive.
[0017]
The file management function 151 forms a code block file 122 and an edit target list file 123 in the storage unit 12 and writes data to the files 122 and 123 and reads data from the files 122 and 123. This is a function of a programming support program.
[0018]
In the code block file 122, as shown in FIG. 2, the code block data specified by the code block name includes language data (C #, etc.) for identifying the program language of the code block data and an outline of the code block data. Is written together with text data explaining the above. Code block data is a collection of highly reusable source code among source codes described in a source program, and in particular, a collection of source code that can be an argument of a preset function is registered as code block data. Is done. The data registered in the code block file 122 is saved without being erased even when the computer is turned off.
[0019]
In the editing target list file 123, as shown in FIG. 3, the function name of the function that uses the code block data as an argument and the code block name are associated with the sequential data starting from 1. Written.
[0020]
The code block registration function 152 realizes a function of registering arbitrary code block data in the code block file 122 together with code block name data, language data, and explanation data according to the procedure shown in the flowchart of FIG. It is one function.
[0021]
That is, when a code block registration job is selected by operating the operation unit 2 and its execution is instructed, the programming basic function unit 11 instructs the programming support function unit 15 to start the code block registration job. In response to this instruction, the programming support function unit 15 operates the code block registration function 152 and starts the processing of FIG.
[0022]
First, the programming support function unit 15 causes the display unit 3 to display, for example, a code block registration dialog box 6 having a layout shown in FIG. This dialog box 6 includes at least a code block name data input area 61, an explanation data input area 62, and a code block data input area 63, Visual Basic (registered trademark), Visual C #, Visual J #, and All language. A language selection area 64 in which any one of the four programming languages can be selected, an OK button 65 for instructing registration of code block data, and a cancel button 66 for instructing cancellation of registration are formed. Then, by operating the operation unit 2 by the programming operator, desired code block name data, description data, and code block data can be input as text data in the input areas 61, 62, and 63, respectively. In addition, any one type of language data can be selected from the language selection area 64. Further, an OK button 65 and a cancel button 66 can be operated. In the language selection area 64, for example, All language is selected in advance as a default. The language selected as the default is not limited to All language, and may be any of Visual C #, Visual J #, or Visual Basic (registered trademark).
[0023]
In this state, the programming support function unit 15 waits for the cancel button 66 to be operated as ST2 or the OK button 65 to be operated as ST3. If it is detected that the cancel button 66 has been operated, the programming support function unit 15 deletes the code block registration dialog box 6 of the display unit 3 as ST9 and ends this process.
[0024]
When it is detected that the OK button 65 is operated in ST3, the programming support function unit 15 confirms that code block name data is input to the input area 61 as ST4, and explanation data to the input area 62 as ST5. , That the code block data of the input area 63 is input as ST6, and that one of the programming languages is selected in the language selection area 64 as ST7. If it is confirmed that the corresponding data is stored in each of the input areas 61, 62, and 63 and that any one programming language is selected in the language selection area 64, the programming support function The unit 15 receives the code block name data, the description data, and the code block data input to the input areas 61, 62, and 63 as ST8, and the identification data of the programming language selected in the language selection area 64, respectively. The code block file 122 is written and registered in association with the empty area. Thereafter, the programming support function unit 15 deletes the code block registration dialog box 6 of the display unit 3 as ST9 and ends this processing.
[0025]
If no data is input in at least one input area 61, 62, 63 or no programming language is selected, the operation of the OK button 65 is invalidated and the OK button 65 is operated again. Or it waits for the cancel button 66 to be operated.
[0026]
The code block insertion function 153 inserts source code registered in the code block file 122 in advance as code block data into a source program under development according to the procedure shown in the flowcharts of FIGS. This is a function of the support program.
[0027]
That is, when a code block insertion job is selected by the operation of the operation unit 2 and its execution is instructed, the programming basic function unit 11 commands the programming support function unit 15 to start the code block insertion job. In response to this instruction, the programming support function unit 15 operates the code block insertion function 153 to start the processing of FIG.
[0028]
First, the programming support function unit 15 causes the display unit 3 to display the code block list panel 70 of the block insertion wizard dialog box 7 having the layout shown in FIG. The code block list panel 70 is provided with at least a code block list display area 71, an insert button 72, and an end button 73. A class tree tab 81 for selecting a class tree panel 80 hidden behind the code block list panel 70 is provided adjacent to the code block list tab 74 for selecting the code block list panel 70. Yes. The programming support function unit 15 reads the code block name data, the description data, and the programming language identification data stored in the code block file 122 and displays the list in the code block list display area 71.
[0029]
In this state, the programming support function unit 15 waits until the end button 73 is operated as ST12, the insert button 72 is operated as ST13, or the class tree tab 81 is selected as ST14. If it is detected that the end button 73 has been operated, the programming support function unit 15 deletes the block insertion wizard dialog box 7 on the display unit 3 in ST24 and ends this process.
[0030]
When detecting that the insert button 72 is operated in ST13, the programming support function unit 15 selects any one of the code block names in the code block list displayed in the list display area 71 as ST15. Check if the code block name is selected. Here, when the code block name is not selected, the programming support function unit 15 ignores the operation of the insert button 72 and selects the end button 73 or the insert button 72 again or selects the class tree tab 81. Wait to be done.
[0031]
On the other hand, when one code block name is selected by the operation of the operation unit 2, the programming support function unit 15 executes a pointer position insertion process as ST16. When the language of the code block data specified by the selected code block name matches the language of the source program being developed in the programming basic function unit 11, the insertion processing is executed from the code block file 122. This is a process of reading and inserting at the position of the source program indicated by the pointer operated by the operation unit 2. The programming support function unit 15 waits until the end button 73 or the insert button 72 is operated again or the class tree tab 81 is selected when this insertion process is completed.
[0032]
When it is detected in ST14 that the class tree tab 81 has been selected, the programming support function unit 15 switches the contents of the block insertion wizard dialog box 7 to a class tree panel 80 having the layout shown in FIG. 10, for example, in ST17. . The class tree panel 80 includes at least a program name display area 82, a class name display area 83, a function name display area 84, an edit button 85, and an end button 86. In addition, a code block list tab 74 for selecting the code block list panel 70 hidden behind the class tree panel 80 is provided adjacent to the class tree tab 81. The programming support function unit 15 displays the program name (program name) stored in the program file 121 stored in the program folder 124 in the program display area 82 so as to be selectable (program selection means). Further, when one program name is selected from the program names displayed in the program name display area 82, the class name of each class constituting the source program of the program name can be selected in the class name display area 83. Display. Further, when one class name is selected from the class names displayed in the class name display area 83, all functions defined in the class with the class name are acquired (function acquisition means), and the function name is acquired. Is displayed in the function name display area 84.
[0033]
In this state, the programming support function unit 15 waits until the end button 86 is operated as ST18, the edit button 85 is operated as ST19, or the code block list tab 74 is selected as ST20. If it is detected that the end button 86 has been operated, the programming support function unit 15 erases the block insertion wizard dialog box 7 on the display unit 3 in ST24 and ends this process.
[0034]
When it is detected in ST19 that the edit button 85 has been operated, the programming support function unit 15 selects one of the program names displayed in the program name display area 82 as ST21, and ST22. It is confirmed that one of the class names displayed in the class name display area 83 is selected. Here, when at least one of the program name and the class name is not selected, the programming support function unit 15 ignores the operation of the edit button 85 and either the end button 86 or the edit button 85 is operated again, or the code Wait for the block list tab 74 to be selected.
[0035]
When it is confirmed that the program name and the class name are selected, the programming support function unit 15 executes a function insertion process described later as ST23. When the function insertion process is completed, the programming support function unit 15 waits until the end button 86 or the edit button 85 is operated again or the code block list tab 74 is selected.
[0036]
If it is detected in ST20 that the code block list tab 74 has been selected, the programming support function unit 15 returns to ST11 and switches the contents of the block insertion wizard dialog box 7 to the code block list panel 70. Then, it waits until the end button 73 or the insert button 72 is operated or the class tree tab 81 is selected.
[0037]
FIG. 7 is a flowchart specifically showing the procedure of the function insertion process of ST23 in FIG. That is, when entering the function insertion process, the programming support function unit 15 first displays, for example, the layout editing dialog box 9 shown in FIG. The edit dialog box 9 includes at least a class name display area 91, a code block name display area 92, an explanation data display area 93, a function name display area 94, and an edit target list display area 95 including a function name and a code block name. An add button 96, an OK button 97, and a cancel button 98 are provided. In addition, the edit target list display area 95 is provided with list edit buttons such as an up button 951, a down button 952, and a delete button 953. The programming support function unit 15 displays the class name selected on the class tree panel 80 in the class name display area 91. Further, all the function names defined in the class of the selected class name are displayed in the function name display area 94 so as to be selectable (function specifying means). Further, the code block name of each code block data registered in the code block file 122 can be pulled down in the code block name display area 92, and the head code block name is displayed as a default. Then, explanation data corresponding to the code block data of the code block name displayed in the code block name display area 92 is displayed in the explanation data display area 93.
[0038]
Next, the programming support function unit 15 selects one of the code block names from the code block name displayed as a pull-down display in the code block name display area 92 as ST32, or operates the add button 96 as ST33. The process waits until the list edit buttons 951 to 953 are operated as ST34, the OK button 97 is operated as ST35, or the cancel button 98 is operated as ST36.
[0039]
If it is detected that a code block name has been selected, the programming support function unit 15 reads out the explanation data corresponding to the selected code block name from the code block file 122 in ST37 and displays the explanation data. It is displayed in the area 93. Thereafter, the code block name selection or the operation standby state of each button 951 to 953, 96, 97, 98 is returned.
[0040]
If it is detected in ST33 that the add button 96 has been operated, the programming support function unit 15 selects any one function name from the function names displayed in the function name display area 94 as ST38. It is judged whether it is done. If it is not selected, the operation of the add button 96 is ignored, and the code block name selection or the operation standby state of the buttons 951 to 953, 96, 97, 98 is returned.
[0041]
On the other hand, if any one function name is selected, the programming support function unit 15 stores the selected function name and code block name in the editing target list file 123 as ST39. At this time, the function name and the code block name are stored in correspondence with the minimum order data among the free order data in the edit target list file 123 (accumulating means). Thereafter, the code block name selection or the operation standby state of each button 951 to 953, 96, 97, 98 is returned.
[0042]
When it is detected in ST34 that the list edit buttons 151 to 153 have been operated, the programming support function unit 15 selects among the edit target data displayed in the edit target list display area 95 as ST40 (FIG. 8). It is determined whether any one of the data is selected. If not selected, the operation of the list edit buttons 151 to 153 is ignored, and the code block name selection or the operation standby state of each button 951 to 953, 96, 97, 98 is returned.
[0043]
On the other hand, when any one of the data to be edited (function name, code block name) is selected, the programming support function unit 15 determines the list edit button operated as ST41. Here, when the operation button is the up button 951, the programming support function unit 15 shifts the editing target data selected as ST42 so that it is positioned at the top of the editing target list file 123, and edits the editing target data. The list display in the list display area 95 is updated (accumulation order changing means). When the operation button is the down button 952, the programming support function unit 15 shifts the editing target data selected as ST43 so that it is located at the end of the editing target list file 123 and edits the editing target data. The list display in the list display area 95 is updated (accumulation order changing means). If the operation button is the delete button 953, the programming support function unit 15 deletes the edit target data selected as ST44 from the edit target list file 123 and displays the list in the edit target list display area 95. Update. Thereafter, the programming support function unit 15 returns to the state of selecting a code block name or waiting for the operation of the buttons 951 to 953, 96, 97, 98.
[0044]
When it is detected in ST35 that the OK button 35 has been operated, the programming support function unit 15 determines whether or not editing target data is stored in the editing target list file 123 in ST45. If the data to be edited is not stored, the operation of the OK button is ignored, and the code block name selection or the operation standby state of each button 951 to 953, 96, 97, 98 is returned.
[0045]
On the other hand, when the data to be edited is stored, the programming support function unit 15 edits the source program having the program name selected on the program name display area 82 of the class tree panel 80 as ST46. The code block data specified by the code block name is inserted into the argument description area of the function specified by the function name of the target data. Specifically, first, the first edit target data is read from the edit target list file 123. Next, it is checked whether or not the language of the code block data specified by the read code block name of the data to be edited matches the language of the source program. If the languages match, the code block data is read from the code block file 122, the function specified by the function name of the data to be edited is extracted from the source program, and the argument description area of the function Code block data is inserted (code insertion means). If the language does not match, the code block data is not inserted. Thereafter, the above processing is repeated every time the edit target data is read from the edit target list file 123.
[0046]
When the above processing is executed for all the editing target data stored in the editing target list file 123, the programming support function unit 15 clears the editing target list file 123 as ST47. If the edit dialog box 9 is deleted in ST48, the function insertion process is terminated. Here, the OK button 97 in the edit dialog box 9 functions as an insertion instruction means.
[0047]
If it is detected in ST36 that the cancel button 98 has been operated, the programming support function unit 15 clears the editing target list file 123 at that time and deletes the editing dialog box 9 to perform this function insertion processing. Exit.
[0048]
In the present embodiment configured as described above, when a programming operator finds a reusable source code as a function argument or the like, for example, in the stage of developing a source program, it is converted into code block data. Are registered in the code block file 122 as appropriate.
[0049]
That is, the programming operator operates the operation unit 2 to instruct the programming device main body 1 to execute the code block registration work. Then, since the code block registration dialog box 6 shown in FIG. 5 is displayed on the display unit 3, the programming operator operates the operation unit 2 to enter desired areas in the input areas 61 to 63 of the dialog box 6, respectively. Enter the code block name, description, and code block data. Further, the language of the code block data is designated from the language selection area 44. Thereafter, the OK button 65 is operated. Thus, the code block data is registered in the code block file 122 together with the explanation data, the code block name data, and the language data.
[0050]
When the programming operator determines that the code block data (source code) registered in the code block file 122 can be used during the development of the source program, the programming operator operates the operation unit 2 to operate the code block. Directs execution of the insert job. Then, since the code block list panel 70 of the insertion wizard dialog box 7 shown in FIG. 9 is displayed on the display unit 3, the programming operator inserts code block data into the source program by function designation or by manual designation. Decide whether to insert. After selecting the source program to be inserted by manual designation, the insertion position of this source program is indicated by the mouse pointer. Thereafter, the code block name of the code block data to be inserted at that position is selected from the code block list display area 71 and the insert button 72 is operated. By doing so, the code block data of the selected code block name is inserted at the position designated by the mouse pointer of the source program.
[0051]
On the other hand, when inserting by function specification, the programming operator operates the class tree tab 81. Then, as shown in FIG. 10, the contents of the block insertion wizard dialog box 7 are switched to the class tree panel 80, and the program name list of the source program under development is displayed in the program name display area 82. Then, the operation unit 2 is operated to select the program name of the code block data insertion target program. Then, since a class name list of classes constituting the source program to which the program name is set is displayed in the class name display area 83, the programming operator operates the operation unit 2 to select the code block data insertion target class. Select a class name. Then, since the function name list of the function described in the class of this class name is displayed in the function name display area 84, it is confirmed that there is a function having the code block data as an argument. Then, if confirmed, the edit button 85 is operated.
[0052]
As a result, an edit dialog box 9 shown in FIG. Therefore, the programming operator selects the code block name of the code block data to be inserted from the code block name display area 92. Further, one function name of the function describing the code block data as an argument is selected from the function name display area 94. Then, the add button 96 is operated. Then, the function name and code block name are stored first in the editing target list file 123, and the contents are displayed in the editing target list display area 95.
[0053]
Here, when using the same code block data as an argument of another function, the programming operator selects the corresponding function name from the function name display area 94 and operates the add button 96. As a result, the function name and the code block name are stored second in the editing target list file 123, and the contents are displayed in the editing target list display area 95.
[0054]
When other code block data is also inserted, the programming operator may repeat the code block name selection operation and the function name selection operation.
[0055]
For example, as shown in FIG. 11, the code block data with the code block name “DBAccess04” is inserted into the function with the function name “Page_Load”, and the same code is applied to the function with the function name “OnInit”. Assume that an instruction to insert block data is given. The source program selected as the insertion target is assumed to have the contents shown in FIG.
[0056]
When the programming operator operates the OK button 97 in the edit dialog box 9 in this state, an argument description area (“{” to “4” on the second line) for the function “Page_Load” on the first line in the source program is displayed. } ”) And the argument description area for the function“ OnInit ”on the fifth line (the area from“ {”to“} ”on the bottom line) on the sixth line, the code of the code block name“ DBAccess04 ” The block data 100 is inserted, and the source program has the contents shown in FIG.
[0057]
As described above, according to the present embodiment, by registering reusable source code as a function argument in advance, the source code can be placed in the correct position without specifying the insertion position for the source program. Can be inserted into. Therefore, it is not necessary to write the source code having the same contents over and over without burdening the programming operator, so that the program can be developed more efficiently.
[0058]
