Description

  The present invention relates to a program creation device using a computer, for example, a program creation device such as a control device, an inspection device, or a measurement device, a program creation device in an inspection device having a tabular inspection process, or a programmable display The present invention relates to a program creation device in drawing programming.

  FIG. 16 is a diagram for explaining a display example of conventional general graphical programming. In general, in graphical programming, a required object is selected from a set 12 of objects on a display device (display screen), the object is arranged in an editing area 13 of the display device, and the relationship between the arranged objects is connected to a connection line. The program is described by associating with 14 or the like.

For example, graphical programming
(A) In the case of a flowchart, the object is “start”, “conditional branch”, etc.
(B) In the case of a block diagram, the objects are various “data acquisitions” and various “filters”.
(C) In the case of a ladder program for a programmable controller, an object is a “contact” or “coil”,
(D) In the case of drawing programming for a programmable display, objects are various “graphic symbols”, etc.
(E) In the case of system configuration setting, the object is various “hardware”.

  FIG. 17 is a diagram for explaining how a program is generally converted and executed. As shown in the figure, when the program created as described above is operated on a control device or measurement device, the program can be executed on the control device or measurement device (compiled in the case of a compile format). In the case of an already-executed execution code or interpreter format, it is converted into a script or intermediate code) and transferred to a control device or measurement device for execution.

  The program creation device 15 and the program execution means 16 may be independent or may be integrated. FIG. 18 is a diagram for generally explaining the relationship between a program creation device and program execution means. 18A shows an example in which the program creation device 15 and the program execution means 16 are independent, and FIG. 18B shows an example in which the program creation device 15 and the program execution means 16 are integrated. An example is shown in the case of making it.

  Incidentally, the program creation device includes text programming in addition to the above-described graphical programming. In order to improve the efficiency of program editing, text programming (C language, Basic language, etc.) has a function of commenting out portions that are not used temporarily. This is to improve the inefficiency that if you delete unused text from the editing area, you will have to re-enter the same text manually even if you want to use it again. It is a function.

  When commenting out, the user must be aware of the grammar of the text program. In other words, you can only comment out without violating the grammar. However, since the text program is one-dimensional information, it is easy to comment out so that there is no violation of grammar, such as commenting out in units that become grammars (that is, in units of one line).

  FIG. 19 is a diagram showing an example of conventional comment out in C language, which is an example of a text program. Here, in order to temporarily comment out a = b + c; in the program, the comment out start symbol / * is inserted before it, and the comment out end symbol * / is inserted after it.

  The commented out part is ignored when the program is converted into an executable format. If the text program has a grammatical error due to commenting out, the text program ignoring the commented out part is checked for grammatical errors before conversion.

  Now, a case where the comment-out function in the text programming described above is applied to graphical programming will be described. For example, in the information processing apparatus of Patent Document 1, there is a disclosure that an area to be treated as a comment-out is designated in a program editing area and is not coded in order to realize a function of writing an annotation in the drawing.

Japanese Patent No. 2851852

According to the prior art, when an object in a program is handled as a comment-out, a means for designating a comment-out area in the program editing area and coding only an object not in the comment-out area is used. However, in order to determine whether the object is inside or outside the designation in the commented out area,
(A) It is necessary to give the concept of coordinates and coordinate values to all objects handled by graphical programming for an area specified as an object or comment out, and there is a problem that the amount of information increases.
(B) In addition, it is necessary to perform arithmetic processing for determining whether the object is inside or outside the designation by the comment-out area for every object, and there is a problem that the amount of work related to the arithmetic processing increases. there were.

FIG. 20 is a diagram for explaining how to comment out a conventional specific object. As shown in the figure, in drawing programming for a programmable display, the relationship between arranged objects is not related by connecting lines, etc., due to its nature, and there are many cases where objects are arranged closely. So, even if you try to comment out a specific object with conventional technology,
(A) In order to specify a comment-out area so as to include only a specific object, accuracy and a considerable amount of work with a mouse operation are required, which is not easy.
(B) Even if the user intends to specify the comment-out area so as to include only a specific object, an operation for determining whether the object to be performed when actually coding the program is inside or outside the designation by the comment-out area There is also a problem in that processing may not be correctly determined due to calculation errors.

FIG. 21 is a diagram for explaining a state in which a tabular program is generally commented out. As shown in the figure, especially in the case of a program method in a table format used in an inspection apparatus or the like,
(A) A normal tabular program editing tool (such as Excel, Excel is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation) does not have the concept of a coordinate area. For this reason, it is impossible to comment out a part of a program using the conventional technique because an operation for designating a comment-out area in the program editing area as disclosed in the conventional technique cannot be performed in the first place. , There is a problem
(B) Even if an editing tool of a tabular program has a concept of a coordinate area, and an operation for specifying a comment-out area in the program editing area as disclosed in the prior art can be performed (for example, If you consider creating a tabular program with Visio table objects, you can think of this form (Visio is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation), and when the comment-out area is displayed, the comment-out area is displayed as a description of the tabular program itself. There is a problem that readability is impaired.

  The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-described problems. By making it possible to easily set whether an object is commented out, a computer capable of simplifying arithmetic processing and improving work efficiency is provided. It is an object of the present invention to obtain a program creation device used.

  A program creation apparatus using a computer according to the present invention is set by comment out setting means for setting whether or not to comment out a plurality of objects which are elements of a program, and the comment out setting means for each object. Comment out setting holding means for holding a setting as to whether or not the comment is out.

  Also, comment-out setting means for setting whether or not the object is commented out, and the object that is an element of the program includes at least one object, and includes each included object. Each of the objects on the side also has comment-out setting holding means for holding a setting as to whether the comment-out is set by the comment-out setting means, and the inclusion-side object includes the inclusion-side object. The comment-out setting reflecting means for setting and reflecting the above setting to all the objects included in itself is reflected.

  Further, comment out setting means for setting whether or not to comment out an object, and an object as an element of the program includes at least one object, and also includes for each included object. Each of the objects on the side also has comment-out setting holding means for holding the setting of whether or not the comment-out is set by the comment-out setting means, and the included object includes this object. If all the settings of all the objects are the same, it has a comment-out setting reflecting means for setting and reflecting the setting to itself.

  According to the program creation device using the computer of the present invention, it is possible to easily set whether or not to comment out an object, and there is a comment-out setting holding means for holding the setting for each object. Thus, work efficiency is improved.

  In addition, setting whether to comment out the object on the containing side can reflect the setting on all the objects included in the object, so there is no need to perform each setting on the containing object. , Work efficiency is improved.

  In addition, if the object for which commented out is set is included, if all the objects included in the object are the same as viewed from the object on the included side, the setting is included. Therefore, the consistency between the comment-out setting and the inclusion relation is always maintained, so that problems in program creation are reduced and work efficiency is improved.

When carrying out the inspection, the programmable inspection apparatus 20 controls the carry-in machine 17 to carry the inspection object 21 into the inspection station 18. In the inspection station 18, the inspection object 21 and the programmable inspection device 20 are electrically connected by attaching a jig to the inspection object 21, for example, and inspection of inspection items described in a tabular program is performed. . After the inspection, the inspection object 21 is unloaded from the inspection station 18 by the unloader 19. The progress of the inspection can be confirmed on the display screen of the programmable inspection apparatus 20.

  The programmable inspection apparatus generally includes a CPU 23, a ROM 24, a RAM 25, a display device 26, an input device 27, an I / O 28, a D / A 29, and an A / D 30 as hardware resources. Yes. These are connected via a bus. For example, the ROM 24 stores an operating system and a program for controlling the operation of the system. The RAM 25 records and stores an inspection program created by the user and data input at the time of inspection. The CPU 23 executes various functions by a program that controls the operation of the system stored in the ROM 24.

  The CPU 23 functions as a display unit together with the display device 26, and functions as an operation unit together with the input device 27. The CPU 23 functions as a flowchart execution unit, a tabular program execution unit, a function block execution unit, and a ladder execution unit together with the ROM 24 and the RAM 25. Further, the CPU 23 functions as program holding means together with the RAM 25, functions as input means together with the I / O 28 and A / D 30, and functions as output means together with the I / O 28 and D / A 29.

  The display device 26 is composed of a liquid crystal display device LCD, for example, and can display the progress of the inspection program. In addition, the display device 26 can display the reference value for the pass / fail determination of the inspection and the measured value, and can also display the pass / fail determination result. The input device is composed of, for example, a keyboard, a mouse, or a touch panel attached to the LCD, and can instruct the start of execution of the inspection program. In addition, the reference value for the pass / fail judgment can be changed.

  The program execution means performs, for example, processing of a tabular program. Referring to FIG. 21, the program execution means outputs the signal value described in the tabular program, and the data input to the input CH to be inspected described in the tabular program is described in the tabular program. The acceptance / rejection determination is made based on the accepted / rejection determination criteria (minimum value and maximum value). Also, depending on the contents described in the tabular program, the process to be executed is switched according to the pass / fail judgment result.

The tabular program used for the inspection apparatus is as shown in FIG. inside that,
(A) The signal values described in the tabular program are indicated by the CH column in FIG.
(B) The input CH to be inspected described in the tabular program is indicated by the target column in FIG.

(E) The tabular program is processed for each step. One step corresponds to the row in FIG.
(F) A comment can be given to the step, which is indicated by a comment column in FIG.

The program creation apparatus according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. The program creation device may be included in the programmable inspection device or may be a personal computer that can be connected to the programmable inspection device.
In particular, application to drawing programming for a programmable display will be described as an example.
First, an outline will be described. Reference numeral 13 denotes an editing area of a display device (a display screen of a personal computer or a display screen of the display device 26). The example of FIG. 1 is an example in the case where it is desired to test the object 2 and the object 3 for the time being because the part related to the object 1 that is an element of the program is not completed because the programming is being developed. In order to comment out object 1, comment out is set directly on object 1 to be commented out. Each object has means (comment out setting holding means 131) for holding whether or not it is commented out, so that the program developer can set whether or not commented out for each object. Can do.

  In FIG. 2, the program creation apparatus 100 includes a program conversion unit 110 and a plurality of objects 130 constituting the program. Each object 130 has comment out setting holding means 131. The program conversion unit 110 includes a comment out determination unit 111. The comment-out setting means 120 has a configuration that the program creation means 100 has when used in common with each object 130, and the object 130 has a structure when different objects are prepared for each object 130. Similarly, the comment-out-positive form display means 199 and the comment-out rejection form display means 198 are also included in the program creation means 100 when used in common with the object 130, and different objects are prepared for the objects 130. In this case, the object 130 has a configuration. These programs and means are recorded, for example, in RAM and ROM of a personal computer.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart for explaining the operation procedure of the first embodiment.
The process starts in step S150.
In step S151, a necessary object is selected from the set of objects of the display device. In the initial state when the object is arranged in the editing area 13 of the display device, the value of the comment-out setting holding unit 131 possessed by the object is determined to be negative.

In step S152, the object to be commented out is selected and the means 120 for setting comment out is activated. As means 120 for setting comment-out, for example, as shown in FIG.
(A) When the means 120 for setting comment-out is a pop-up menu displayed by right-clicking the mouse with the object selected with the mouse, the comment-out value is affirmed in the pop-up menu. Prepare a menu to set to NO.
(B) When the means 120 for setting comment-out is a dialog displayed by double-clicking an object with a mouse, a control for setting the comment-out value to affirmative / not is provided in the dialog.

In step S153, the comment-out is set to affirmative by the means 120 for setting the comment-out.
(A) It is also possible to reset the comment-out from a negative to a positive.
(B) It is also possible to reset the comment out from positive to negative.

In step S154, when the means 120 for setting comment-out ends, the means 120 for setting comment-out sets the set value in the comment-out setting holding means 131 that the object has.
(A) In the case of a pop-up menu, the pop-up menu is terminated as soon as it is specified, and the set value is set in the comment-out setting holding unit 131 of the object.
(B) In the case of a dialog, when the OK button is pressed, the dialog is ended, and the set value is set in the comment-out setting holding unit 131 of the object, but when the cancel button is pressed, the dialog is only ended. Thus, the set value is not set in the comment-out setting holding unit 131 of the object.

In step S155, when the setting of the comment-out setting holding unit 131 is positive, the object is a comment-out positive by changing the display color of the object to the comment-out positive display color by the comment-out-positive form display unit 199. It shows that.
(A) By changing the display color of the object to the display color of comment out positive, it can be seen at a glance that the comment out is positive without starting up the pop-up menu or dialog.
(B) Instead of changing the display color of the object, the display character string of the object may be changed to a character string that allows the comment out positive to be recognized at a glance.
(C) Instead of changing the display color of the object, the frame line of the object may be changed to a dotted line or the like so that the comment out positive can be seen at a glance.

In step S156, when the program conversion unit 110 converts the program into an execution format, the comment out determination unit 111 ignores an object whose comment out is positive.
(A) During the process of converting the program into an execution format, the value of the comment-out setting holding unit 131 possessed by the object is read. If the value is affirmative, it is ignored and only the object whose value is negative is processed.
(B) In the case where the program is erroneous due to grammatical reasons due to commenting out, the program that ignores the commented-out part is checked for grammatical errors before conversion.

In step S157, the process ends.
In the above procedure, step S155 may be omitted and does not affect the implementation.

The first embodiment has the following effects.
(A) Since it is possible to set whether or not to comment out for each object, it is possible to set comment out without having any means for setting a comment out area.
(B) Since whether or not to comment out can be set and held for each object, calculation processing for determining whether or not to comment out is simplified.
(C) Since it is possible to set whether or not to comment out for each object, the work of setting whether or not to comment out is simplified, and the work efficiency is improved.
(D) Since whether or not to comment out can be set and held for each object, the setting of whether or not to comment out is not related to a problem due to a calculation error, and is reliable, and the reliability of work execution is improved.
(E) Since it can be displayed so that the setting of whether to comment out can be confirmed for each object, which object is commented out can be confirmed at a glance, and readability is improved.

Embodiment 2. FIG.
7 and 8 are diagrams for explaining display examples of the program creation device according to the second embodiment. An application to drawing programming for a programmable display will be described as an example. The example of FIG. 7 is an example in the case where it is desired to comment out all the objects included in the object 1 (in this case, the object 2 and the object 3) because the part related to the object 1 is incomplete during programming development. . If comment out is set for object 1 instead of commenting out object 2 and object 3 one by one, the setting is reflected in all objects (object 2 and object 3) included in object 1. The containing object has means (comment-out setting reflection means) for setting and reflecting its own settings on all the objects it contains, so whether or not the program developer has commented out If the object is set to include objects, the inclusion relationship is reflected.

  The reverse is shown in FIG. During programming development, when setting comment out for each included object, if the setting of all the objects included in the included object is the same, Set and reflect that setting on itself. The containing object has means (comment-out setting reflecting means) for setting and reflecting the setting to itself if all of the setting of all the objects contained in the object are the same. Even when comment-out is set in units of included objects, the comment-out setting and the inclusion relation are always kept consistent.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining a program creation apparatus according to the second embodiment. Compared to the configuration according to the first embodiment (FIG. 2), the inclusion-side object 130 includes the comment-out setting reflection unit 132 that reflects the inclusion side value to the inclusion side, and the inclusion side value. Comment out setting reflecting means 133 for reflecting to the side including the object, and object management means 134 for managing the included object. The object management unit 134 is, for example, a collection realized by a column such as an array. 1301 is an included object, and 1311 is a comment-out setting holding unit.

FIG. 10 is a partial flowchart for explaining the operation procedure of the second embodiment. The procedure of the second embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment, but step S1541 is inserted between step S154 and step S155.
In step S1541, when the object for which comment-out is set is the inclusion side, its own setting is set and reflected in all the objects included in the object. When an object for which comment-out is set is included, if the setting of all objects included in the object is the same, the setting is reflected in the setting of the object on the included side. .

The second embodiment has the following effects.
(A) When setting whether or not to comment out the object on the inclusion side, the comment out setting can be reflected on all the objects included in the object, so the comment out setting is performed for each of the included objects. This eliminates the need for work efficiency.
(B) When the object for which comment out is set is included, if all the objects included in the object are the same when viewed from the object on the included side, the setting is included. Therefore, it is possible to maintain the consistency between the comment-out setting and the inclusive relation, thereby reducing problems in program creation and improving work efficiency.

Embodiment 3 FIG.
FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the program creation device according to the third embodiment. Application to a tabular program, particularly setting to a cell object will be described as an example. The example of FIG. 11 is in the middle of programming development, and since the portion related to the cell 22 (hereinafter simply referred to as a cell means a cell object) is incomplete, all the cells other than the cell 22 are displayed. This is an example when you want to test for the time being. In order to comment out the cell 22, comment out is set directly to the cell 22 to be commented out. Since each cell has means 131 for holding the setting whether or not it is commented out, the program developer sets whether or not commented out for each cell. That is, the object referred to in the first embodiment corresponds to a cell object in the third embodiment.

The configuration related to the program creation device of the third embodiment is the same because the object of the first embodiment corresponds to the cell object of the third embodiment.
The procedure of the third embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment, but the step S151 is replaced with step S1511.
In step 1511, the value (setting) of the comment-out setting holding unit 131 included in the cell is determined to be negative in the initial state when the tabular program is created.

The third embodiment has the following effects.
Since comment-out can be set and held for each cell object, it is possible to easily implement a comment-out function in a tabular program.
(A) The comment-out function can be realized even with a normal tabular program editing tool.
(B) Even with other tabular program editing tools, a comment-out function with good readability can be realized without impairing readability because the display of the comment-out area interferes with the description of the tabular program itself. It becomes possible.

Embodiment 4 FIG.
FIG. 12 is a diagram for explaining a display example of the program creation device according to the fourth embodiment. Application to a tabular program, particularly setting to an object in a cell object will be described as an example. The example of FIG. 12 is in the middle of program programming development, and the portion related to the object 1 in the description of the cell 22 is incomplete, so the cells other than the object 1 in the description of the cell 22 and all the cells other than the cell 22 This is an example when you want to test for the time being. In order to comment out object 1, comment out is set directly on object 1 in the description of cell 22 to be commented out. Each cell has an architecture that holds the description contained in each object, and each object has means 131 for holding whether or not it is commented out. Whether to comment out is set for each object. In other words, the object referred to in the first embodiment corresponds to the object held by the cell object in the fourth embodiment.

The configuration related to the program creation device of the fourth embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment.
The procedure of the fourth embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment, except that step S151 is replaced with step S1512.
In step S1512, in the initial state when the tabular program is created, the setting of the comment-out setting holding unit included in each object included in the cell is not allowed.

The fourth embodiment has the following effects.
Since comment-out can be set and held for each object of the cell object, a more detailed comment-out function than that in the third embodiment can be realized in the tabular program.

Embodiment 5 FIG.
FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining a display example of the program creation device according to the fifth embodiment. The example of FIG. 13 is in the middle of programming development, and since the portions related to all objects (here, object 1 and object 2) of the cell (cell object) 22 are incomplete, all cells other than the cell 22 are displayed. This is an example when you want to test for the time being. In order to comment out object 1 and object 2, comment out is set in cell 22 to be commented out. Each cell has an architecture that holds a description contained in each object, and each cell has means 131 for holding whether or not it is commented out. Since the program developer has means 1311 (FIG. 15) for holding whether or not he / she is commented out, all the objects possessed by the cell can be set by simply setting whether or not the comment is out in cell units. The cell setting is reflected (that is, the cell 22 has the comment-out setting reflecting means 132). The object on the inclusion side in the second embodiment corresponds to a cell object in the fifth embodiment, and the object on the inclusion side corresponds to an object held by the cell object.

  On the other hand, corresponding to FIG. 8, when a comment out is set in the unit of the included object during programming development, the included cell object is included by itself. If all the objects have the same settings, you can set them to reflect them. The containing cell object may have means (comment-out setting reflecting means 133) for setting and reflecting the setting of all the objects contained in the cell object if it is the same. Even when comment out is set in units of included objects, it is always possible to maintain consistency between the comment out setting and the inclusion relationship.

  The configuration related to the program creation device of the fifth embodiment is shown in FIG. FIG. 15 is a diagram for explaining a program creation apparatus according to the fifth embodiment. This is a combination of the first embodiment (FIG. 2) and the second embodiment (FIG. 9).

The procedure of the fifth embodiment is the same as that of the second embodiment, but step S151 is replaced with step S1513.
In step 1513, in the initial state when creating the tabular program, the setting of the comment-out setting holding unit 131 included in the cell and the setting of the comment-out setting holding unit 1311 included in each object included in the cell are not allowed.

Also in the fifth embodiment, as in the fourth embodiment, comment-out can be set for each object of the cell.
At this time, if all the settings of the comment-out setting holding unit 1311 of each object included in the cell are affirmative, the value of the comment-out setting holding unit 131 included in the cell is affirmed, and the cell has each object included in the cell. When all the settings of the comment-out setting holding unit 1311 are NO, the system includes a mechanism for rejecting the setting of the comment-out setting holding unit 131 of the cell.

The fifth embodiment has the following effects.
When comment out is set for each cell object, the setting is automatically reflected in each object of the cell object. Therefore, in the tabular program, the detailed comment out function similar to that of the fourth embodiment is provided from the fourth embodiment. Can also be realized easily.

Embodiment 6 FIG.
FIG. 14 is a diagram for explaining a display example of the program creation device according to the sixth embodiment.
Especially in the case of a tabular program, the software structure has an architecture in which row management objects and column management objects are provided and these hold cell objects. 131, and the setting of the comment out setting holding unit 131 included in the row management object or the column management object is set in the comment out setting holding unit 1311 included in each cell included in the row management object or the column management object. It is possible to provide a function for specifying comment out in units or columns. Although only the column management object is described in FIG. 14, the structure is the same for the row management object.

The procedure of the sixth embodiment is the same as that of the fifth embodiment.
The sixth embodiment has the following effects.
In particular, in the comment out function of the tabular program, it is possible to comment out in batches in units of rows or columns. As a result, when the inspection condition is changed over the entire tabular program, the change can be made with a single operation, and the work efficiency is improved.

  In addition, since this change in the inspection condition is not a column-by-column deletion, but a column-by-column comment out. Since all the stored information can be reused as it is, work efficiency is improved.
