Description

  The present invention relates to an information processing system, a control method for the information processing system, and a program, and in particular, when sorting data by applying a plurality of sort key items associated with priorities to data in descending order of priority. The present invention relates to a mechanism capable of easily changing the priority of some sort key items without changing the priority of other sort key items.

  An application that has a function of displaying a list of results obtained by searching a database arranges data in the user's favorite order so that the user can quickly find the target data or compare information with similar attribute values. It is common to have a function to change (sort).

  The most common sort function is that data is sorted by the attribute when the user moves and clicks the mouse cursor on the column of the attribute to be sorted. At that time, whether the sort direction is ascending or descending is different depending on the system, but it is general that when the same column is clicked again, the sort direction is reversed. Some systems remember the attribute that was used as the sort key one or more before, and can obtain the result of sorting using multiple attributes as keys by applying the sort in the specified order.

  One of the problems of a system that can sort using a plurality of general attributes as keys is that the priority order of sort keys cannot be easily changed. Basically, you can only change the sort key with the highest priority. Therefore, when you want to set a specific attribute for the sort key with the second highest priority, first specify that attribute as the highest priority sort key, and then select the attribute that you want to be the highest priority sort key. Must be specified. In this case, the lower the priority order to be changed, the more time is required for changing the sort key. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-228561 discloses a technique related to changing the priority order of sort keys when a plurality of attributes are used as keys.

JP 2009-163405 A

  In Patent Document 1, as a means for changing an attribute set to a sort key having a specific priority to another attribute, a sort key having a priority order to be changed is designated, and then another attribute to be set to the sort key is designated. Although changing means by steps is disclosed, for example, in an e-mail application, while changing the attribute to which attention is most focused (making it the highest priority sort key), such as the destination and opening status, the date when the focused attribute is the same value For the purpose of changing only the sort key with a specific priority many times, such as sorting in order (fixed as the second highest priority sort key), specify only the attribute of interest, as with single key sorting. It is more convenient to change the sort key in one step. In addition, the school language is the highest priority sort key and the attendance number is the last sort key in the application to manage national language, mathematics, and English grades at school. The same can be said for the purpose of analyzing a plurality of different sort keys as intermediate sort keys.

  An object of the present invention is to apply a plurality of sort key items associated with priorities to data in descending order of priority, and when sorting the data, priorities of some sort key items are changed to other sort key items. It is to provide a mechanism that can be easily changed without changing the priority of the.

  The present invention provides information processing for displaying data composed of a plurality of items in a list, setting a plurality of items constituting the data as sort key items, and sorting the data displayed in the list according to the sort key items An execution means for sorting the data by setting the sort key item and the priority of the sort key item in association with each other, applying the sort key item in order from the priority with the highest priority, and the sort key item; Among the sort key items, a first setting means for setting a sort key item for fixing the priority order to be associated, and a sort key item to be applied to data from among the sort key items for which the priority order to be associated is not fixed by the first setting means. The accepting means for accepting the selection and the sort key item accepted by the accepting means Characterized in that it comprises a second setting means for setting in association with the priority that is not associated with fixed sort key item in the first setting means.

  The present invention also displays a list of data composed of a plurality of items, sets a plurality of items constituting the data as sort key items, and executes sorting of the data displayed in the list according to the sort key items. A control method for an information processing system, wherein the execution means of the information processing system sets the sort key item and the priority of the sort key item in association with each other, and in order from the sort key item corresponding to the higher priority And a first setting step in which the execution means for performing data sorting and the first setting means of the information processing system set a sort key item for fixing a priority order to be associated among the sort key items, Sort key item whose priority is associated with the first setting step by the receiving means of the information processing system is not fixed Receiving a selection of a sort key item to be applied to data from among the sort key items received by the second setting means of the information processing system in the first setting step. And a second setting step that is set in association with a priority that is not fixedly associated.

  The present invention also displays a list of data composed of a plurality of items, sets a plurality of items constituting the data as sort key items, and executes sorting of the data displayed in the list according to the sort key items. There is a program that can be read and executed by an information processing system, and the information processing system is set in association with the sort key item and the priority of the sort key item, and applied in order from the sort key item that corresponds to the highest priority. The priority of correspondence is fixed by the execution means for sorting the data, the first setting means for setting the sort key item for fixing the priority of correspondence among the sort key items, and the first setting means. Accepting means for accepting selection of sort key item to be applied to data from non-sort key items The sort key item whose selection is accepted by the accepting means is made to function as a second setting means for setting in association with a priority order that is not fixedly associated with the sort key item by the first setting means. And

  According to the present invention, when a plurality of sort key items associated with priorities are applied to data in descending order of priority and data is sorted, the priorities of some sort key items are changed to other sort key items. Can be easily changed without changing the priority.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an information processing system according to the present invention (data displayed from a plurality of items is displayed in a list, a plurality of items constituting the data are set as sort key items, and data displayed in a list according to the sort key items is shown. It is a system configuration | structure figure which shows an example of a structure of the information processing system which performs a sort of ().

  In FIG. 1, one or more database servers 110 and one or more operation terminals 120 are connected via a local area network (LAN) 400.

  The database server 110 stores data to be displayed on the operation terminal 120, searches for the corresponding data in accordance with a search formula sent from the operation terminal 120, sorts the data in a specified order, and returns the data.

  The operation terminal 120 creates a data retrieval formula in response to a user request, and displays data obtained from the database server 110 by the retrieval formula. It also creates, edits, and deletes sort templates that serve as templates for the sort order included in the search expression.

  In the information processing system according to the present embodiment, one or a plurality of database servers 110 are connected to be able to communicate with each other via a network (for example, a LAN or a WAN) on the cloud, and one or a plurality of operation terminals 120 are connected to the Internet or the like. The network 400 is connected to one or a plurality of database servers 110 so as to be able to communicate with each other.

  As another embodiment, the operation terminal 120 can execute processing for realizing part or all of the functions of the database server 110. Further, the database server 110 can execute a process for realizing a part or all of the functions of the operation terminal 120. That is, the configuration of the operation terminal 120 alone including all the functions of the database server 110 may be adopted.

  Hereinafter, the hardware configuration of the information processing apparatus applicable to the database server 110 and the operation terminal 120 illustrated in FIG. 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a hardware configuration of an information processing apparatus applicable to the database server 110 and the operation terminal 120 illustrated in FIG.

  In FIG. 2, reference numeral 201 denotes a CPU that comprehensively controls each device and controller connected to the system bus 204. Further, the ROM 202 or the external memory 211 is necessary to realize a BIOS (Basic Input / Output System) or an operating system program (hereinafter referred to as an OS) that is a control program of the CPU 201 and a function executed by each server or each PC. Various programs to be described later are stored.

  A RAM 203 functions as a main memory, work area, and the like for the CPU 201. The CPU 201 implements various operations by loading a program or the like necessary for execution of processing from the ROM 202 or the external memory 211 into the RAM 203 and executing the loaded program.

  An input controller 205 controls input from a keyboard (KB) 209 or a pointing device such as a mouse (not shown). A video controller 206 controls display on a display device such as a CRT display (CRT) 210. In FIG. 2, although described as CRT 210, the display device is not limited to the CRT, but may be another display device such as a liquid crystal display. These are used by the administrator as needed.

  A memory controller 207 is provided in an external storage device (hard disk (HD)), flexible disk (FD), or PCMCIA card slot for storing a boot program, various applications, font data, user files, editing files, various data, and the like. Controls access to an external memory 211 such as a compact flash (registered trademark) memory connected via an adapter.

  A communication I / F controller 208 is connected to and communicates with an external device via a network (for example, the network 400 shown in FIG. 1), and executes communication control processing on the network. For example, communication using TCP / IP is possible.

  Note that the CPU 201 enables display on the CRT 210 by executing outline font rasterization processing on a display information area in the RAM 203, for example. In addition, the CPU 201 enables a user instruction with a mouse cursor (not shown) on the CRT 210.

  Various programs to be described later for realizing the present invention are recorded in the external memory 211 and executed by the CPU 201 by being loaded into the RAM 203 as necessary. Furthermore, definition files and various information tables used when executing the program are also stored in the external memory 211, and a detailed description thereof will be described later.

  Next, a functional block diagram of the operation terminal 120 as the information processing apparatus of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In addition, the detailed control which each functional block processes is demonstrated with the flowchart mentioned later.

  The execution unit 301 sets the sort key item and the priority of the sort key item in association with each other, and executes the sort of data by sequentially applying the sort key item to the priority with the highest priority.

  The first setting unit 302 sets a sort key item that fixes a priority order to be associated among sort key items.

  The accepting unit 303 accepts selection of a sort key item to be applied to data from among sort key items whose priority order to be associated by the first setting unit 302 is not fixed.

  The second setting unit 304 sets the sort key item received by the receiving unit 303 in association with the priority order that is not fixedly associated with the sort key item in the first setting unit 302. This is the end of the description of FIG.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 4, the sorting process in the information processing system of this embodiment will be described. This processing is performed by the database server 110 and the operation terminal 120, and is executed by the CPU 201 reading the program and data stored in the ROM 203 into the RAM 202.

  In S <b> 401, the operation terminal 120 reads a valid sort template (FIG. 8), creates a data search expression to be displayed, and transmits it to the database server 110.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of a sort template stored in the ROM 203 of the operation terminal 120. A template ID 801, a template name 802, and a validity 803 indicating whether the template is valid or invalid are stored in association with each other. Further, the template ID 801 includes an attribute 805 indicating attributes (for example, date, sender, classification, opening, etc.) included in the template, a priority 804 indicating the priority of each attribute, and each attribute in ascending or descending order. A sort direction 806 indicating whether or not there is associated is stored. An attribute 805 is an application example of the sort key item in the present invention.

  In S402, the operation terminal 120 determines whether there is a request for changing the sort template. If there is a sort template change request (editing instruction accepting means in the present invention), the display target data retrieval formula created in S401 is transmitted to S404, and if not, the process proceeds to S403. Depending on the application, the user may not be allowed to edit the template, but in this case, the processing of S404 and S405 is not executed.

  In S403, the database server 110 searches and sorts data (data example: FIG. 7) recorded using the search formula received from the operation terminal 120, and returns the search result to the operation terminal 120.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of data items to be sorted.

  In step S404, the operation terminal 120 performs sort template editing processing. Details will be described later with reference to FIG.

  In S405, the operation terminal 120 displays the data acquired from the database server 110 on the data list screen (FIG. 9). 9A to 9C are examples of a data list screen displayed on the CRT 210 of the operation terminal 120. FIG.

  In S406, the operation terminal 120 receives an attribute to be sorted on the data list screen. As an accepting means, it is conceivable to move and click the mouse cursor according to a user operation to a portion displaying the attribute name of each column. Further, as a receiving means, it is conceivable to move the mouse cursor to a portion displaying the attribute name of each column according to a user operation to open a right-click menu and specify a column sorting direction from the menu. S406 is an example of a receiving unit that receives selection of a sort key item to be applied to data from among sort key items whose priority order to be associated by the first setting unit is not fixed in the present invention.

  In step S407, the operation terminal 120 determines whether the attribute received in step S406 is designated in any priority order of the sort template. If specified, the process proceeds to S408, and if not specified, the process proceeds to S409.

  In S408, the operation terminal 120 changes the descending order if the sorting direction of the received attribute is ascending order, and ascending order if the descending order.

  In S409, the operation terminal 120 has already sorted the received attribute with the highest priority among the priorities in which the attribute in the sort template is not designated (second place is not designated in FIG. 9A). Make sure. For example, in the sort template, the attribute A (“date” in FIG. 9) and the attribute B (“open” in FIG. 9) are designated as the first and third priorities, and are to be sorted in S406. When the attribute C (“From” in FIG. 9) is selected as the attribute (the state shown in FIG. 9B), the display data is attribute A for the first priority, attribute C for the second priority, and attribute B for the third priority. As long as they are sorted (in the state of FIG. 9C). If it can be confirmed, the process proceeds to S408, and if it cannot be confirmed, the process proceeds to S410.

  In step S410, the operation terminal 120 changes the sorting priority of the accepted attribute to the highest priority among the priorities in which no attribute is specified in the sorting template. When the sort template in the description of S409 is applied, and the display data is received with the attribute C in the state where the first priority is sorted with the attribute A, the second with the attribute D, and the third with the attribute B, The first sort priority is attribute A, second is attribute C, third is attribute B, and attribute D is excluded from the sort target. S410 is a second setting means for setting the sort key item accepted by the accepting means in the present invention in association with a priority order that is not fixedly associated with the sort key item by the first setting means. It is an example.

  In S <b> 411, the operation terminal 120 creates a data search expression to be displayed based on the current sort priority and sort direction of each attribute, and transmits it to the database 110.

  In S <b> 412, the database server 110 searches and sorts the recorded data using the search formula received from the operation terminal 120, and returns the search result to the operation terminal 120.

  In S413, the operation terminal 120 displays the data acquired from the database server 110 on the data list screen.

  In step S414, the operation terminal 120 determines whether there is a sort processing end request. If it is a sort process end request, this process ends. If not, the process proceeds to S404.

  The description of FIG. 4 is finished, and next, with reference to FIG. 5, the editing process of the sort template (details of S404 of FIG. 4) in the information processing system of the present embodiment will be described. This process is executed by the operation terminal 120 and is executed by the CPU 201 reading the program and data stored in the ROM 203 into the RAM 202.

  In S501, the operation terminal 120 confirms that the sort template is applied to the data list screen. If confirmed, the process proceeds to S502, and if not confirmed, the process proceeds to S504.

  In S502, the operation terminal 120 displays a list of sort priority orders of the sort templates currently applied to the data list screen on the sort template editing screen (FIG. 10). For each priority, the specified attribute and its sort direction are displayed. At that time, the template may be displayed so that it can be seen how the sort order of the current data list screen has changed.

  10A to 10G are examples of the sort template editing screen displayed on the CRT 210 of the operation terminal 120. FIG.

  In step S503, the operation terminal 120 determines whether a sort template switching request has been received from the user. If a sort template switching request is received from the user, the process proceeds to S504. Otherwise, the process proceeds to S505.

  In step S504, the operation terminal 120 performs sort template switching processing. Details will be described later with reference to FIG.

  In S505, it is determined whether the operation terminal 120 has received a request for changing the number of priorities set in the sort template from the user. When the request for adding the priority number is received from the user, the process proceeds to S506. When a request for deleting the priority number is received from the user, the process proceeds to S507. If neither a priority number addition request or a priority number deletion request has been received, the process advances to step S508.

  In S506, the operation terminal 120 increases the priority number currently set in the sort template by one (FIG. 10B). When priority levels 1 to 3 are set, a priority level corresponding to the 4th priority level is added. The number of attributes that can be added, such as the number of sortable attributes of display data, may be limited so that no more can be added.

  In S507, the operation terminal 120 decreases the priority number currently set in the sort template by one (FIG. 10C). When priority levels 1 to 3 are set, the priority level corresponding to the 3rd priority level is deleted. There may be a lower limit to the number of priorities so that no more can be deleted.

  In step S508, the operation terminal 120 receives selection of the priority order of the sort template to be edited. As the receiving means, it is conceivable to move the mouse cursor on the priority order according to the user operation and press the left button of the mouse.

  In step S509, the operation terminal 120 confirms what kind of editing the priority order received in step S508 is to be performed. If the sorting direction is changed, the process proceeds to S510. If the attribute is changed, the process proceeds to S511. If the priority is changed, the process proceeds to S512. As a confirmation method of the editing method, in S508, when the part where the sort direction is displayed is clicked (when the button is pressed and released immediately) when specifying the priority, the sort direction is changed and the attribute name is displayed. If you click on the part, you can change the attribute, and if you drag (move the mouse cursor while pressing the button), you can treat it as a change of priority.

  In S510, the operation terminal 120 changes the sort direction of the attribute set in the priority order designated in S508 in descending order if it is ascending order, and in ascending order if it is descending order (FIG. 10 (d)).

  In S511, the operation terminal 120 receives an attribute set in the priority order specified in S508 (FIG. 10E). As a receiving method, a method of displaying a list of attributes of data to be displayed and selecting one of the attributes can be considered. Attributes that the user does not want to sort are displayed grayed out or hidden so that they cannot be specified as changed attributes. When receiving the attribute, the operation terminal 120 sets the received attribute in the received priority order (FIG. 10 (f)). S511 is an example of first setting means for setting a sort key item for fixing a priority order to be associated among the sort key items in the present invention.

  In S512, the operation terminal 120 receives which priority order the priority attribute received in S508 is changed to (FIG. 10 (g)). Possible ways of accepting include dragging the target and dropping (release the button) before the priority you want to insert, or dropping it on the priority you want to replace the set attributes. . In the former case, the operation terminal 120 sets the attribute set in the priority order received in S508 (may be unset) to the priority order of the insertion location, and sets the priority order below (or above) the target priority order. Decrease (or increase) the priority of the attribute that was originally set. In the latter case, the attributes set in the two priorities are exchanged.

  In step S513, it is determined whether the operation terminal 120 has received a sort template editing process end request from the user. If a sort template editing process end request is received from the user, this process ends. If not, the process proceeds to S501. This is the end of the description of FIG.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 6, the sorting template switching processing (detailed processing in S504 in FIG. 5) in the information processing system of this embodiment will be described. This process is executed by the operation terminal 120 and is executed by the CPU 201 reading the program and data stored in the ROM 203 into the RAM 202.

  In S601, operation terminal 120 displays a list of currently stored sort templates on the sort template list screen (FIG. 11). FIG. 11 is an example of a sort template list screen displayed on the CRT 210 of the operation terminal 120.

  In S602, it is determined whether the operation terminal 120 has received a new sort template creation request (specifically, an operation for accepting selection of the new creation button 1101 in FIG. 11) from the user. If a new sort template creation request is received from the user, the process proceeds to S603. If a new sort template creation request is not received from the user, the process proceeds to S604.

  In step S603, the operation terminal 120 receives an input of a new sort template name, and creates a new sort template with the received name. Priorities may be set from the beginning for a new sort template. For example, priority levels 1 to 3 may be set as no attribute designation. The operation terminal 120 selects the newly created sort template.

  In S604, the operation terminal 120 accepts selection of a sort template to be edited.

  In step S605, the operation terminal 120 determines whether a sort template deletion request (specifically, an operation for receiving selection of the delete button 1102 in FIG. 11) received in step S604 has been received from the user. If a sort template deletion request is received from the user, the process proceeds to S606. If a sort template deletion request is not received from the user, the process proceeds to S607.

  In step S606, the operation terminal 120 deletes the sort template for which selection has been received in step S604. At the same time, the sort template is not selected.

  In S607, it is determined whether the operation terminal 120 has received from the user a copy (copy) request (specifically, an operation for receiving selection of the copy button 1103 in FIG. 11) for the sort template received in S604. If a sort template copy (copy) request is accepted, the process proceeds to S608. If a sort template copy (copy) request is not accepted, the process proceeds to S609.

  In S608, the operation terminal 120 receives input of the name of the sorted template after duplication, and creates a new sort template with the received name and the same sort priority as the sort template received in S604. After creation, select the newly created sort template.

  In step S609, it is determined whether the operation terminal 120 has received from the user a request for changing the name of the sort template for which selection has been received in step S604 (specifically, an operation for receiving selection of the name change button 1104 in FIG. 11). If a request to change the name of the sort template is received from the user, the process proceeds to S610. If a request to change the name of the sort template is not received from the user, the process proceeds to S611.

  In S610, the operation terminal 120 receives an input of the name of the sorted template after the change, and changes the name of the sorted template received in S604 to the received name.

  In S611, the operation terminal 120 changes the sort template applied to the data list screen to the selected sort template. If no sort template is currently selected, the sort template is not applied to the data list screen.

  In step S612, the operation terminal 120 determines whether a request to end the sort template switching process has been received from the user. If a sort template switching process end request is received from the user, this process ends. Otherwise, the process proceeds to S601. This is the end of the description of FIG.

  Next, screen images showing the difference in operation flow between the conventional method and the proposed method in the information processing system according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

  In FIG. 12, when the sorting priority is changed from “date> open” to “date> sender> open”, it is necessary to click the column title three times in the conventional method. If a template is created in which the opening order of the sorting template (priority 804) is first, the opening is set to the third ranking of the sorting template priority (priority 804), and the second priority of the template is not specified. By simply clicking on the sender column once, sorting is executed with the date as the first priority, the sender as the second priority, and the opening as the third priority.

  In FIG. 13, when changing the sort direction of the sort key “open” with the second highest priority, it is necessary to click the column title three times in the conventional method, but when using the proposed method, the date is assigned to the priority of the sort template. If you create a template with the opening number set to the first place (priority 804) and the second place of the sorting template's priority order (priority order 804), you can click the opening column once to set the date to the priority order. The opening direction is set to the second priority and the sorting direction is changed.

  As described above, according to the present invention, when a plurality of sort key items associated with priorities are applied to data in descending order of priority and data is sorted, the priorities of some sort key items are assigned to other sort keys. It can be easily changed without changing the priority of the item.

  The embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail above. However, the present invention can take an embodiment as, for example, a system, apparatus, method, program executable by the apparatus, or a storage medium. May be applied to a system composed of a plurality of devices, or may be applied to an apparatus composed of a single device.

  Another object of the present invention is to supply a storage medium storing software program codes for realizing the functions of the above-described embodiments to a system or apparatus, and the computer (or CPU or MPU) of the system or apparatus stores the storage medium. Needless to say, this can also be achieved by reading and executing the program code stored in.

  In this case, the program code itself read from the storage medium realizes the functions of the above-described embodiments, and the program code itself and the storage medium storing the program code constitute the present invention.

  As a storage medium for supplying the program code, for example, a flexible disk, a hard disk, an optical disk, a magneto-optical disk, a CD-ROM, a CD-R, a magnetic tape, a nonvolatile memory card, a ROM, or the like can be used.

  Further, by executing the program code read by the computer, not only the functions of the above-described embodiments are realized, but also an OS (basic system or operating system) running on the computer based on the instruction of the program code.
