Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily attain the procedure of registration/revision/deletion by storing subscriber information to an external storage device as a subscriber file, reading the subscriber file from the external storage device at the rising of the on-line system and expanding the file onto an on-line table in a main memory. CONSTITUTION:One record of a subscriber file is read by a file readout means 3 at the rising of the on-line system. A parameter check means 4 checks the content of a record given from the file readout means 3 and when the content is normal, it is given to a table expansion means 5. The table expansion means 5 generates a subscriber terminal management table 6 to an area in the main memory designated in advance according to the content of the record of the subscriber file. The processing above is repeated as to all records of the subscriber file. When the subscriber file is read in an external auxiliary storage medium, the processing such as registration/revision-/deletion is attained by using an editer of a personal computer or the like.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a subscriber terminal management method for an online system having a large number of subscriber terminals.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, this type of subscriber terminal management method includes a method in which a table is defined in an online program and referenced therein, and a method in which only tables are collected and defined as a common module and referenced from each program.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

In the conventional subscriber terminal management method described above, since it is incorporated as part of an online program, it takes a lot of time to accept applications, code, compile, link, and change procedures, and it also takes 10 days to check the validity of changes. It is difficult to check because it is performed in the form of a Crumleher, and there is a drawback that it is easy to miss a check.

[Failure to solve the problem]

The subscriber terminal management method of the present invention is a subscriber terminal management method for an online system that connects a plurality of subscriber terminals via a switched line to provide services, and stores subscriber information in an external storage device as a subscriber file. and a file reading means for reading a subscriber file from an external storage device when starting up the online system, a parameter checking means for checking the validity of the contents of records of the file read from the subscriber file, and an online table in the main memory. and a chifur deployment means for deploying.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention. 1 is an online system including the subscriber terminal management method of the present invention. The online system 1 includes an online program 2, a file reading means 3, a parameter checking means 4, a table expansion means 5, and a subscriber terminal management unit.

When establishing an online system, the subscriber terminal management method of the present invention may require that the subscriber terminal management file required by the online program is based on the subscriber file stored in the magnetic disk device, which is an external storage device. generated. First, the file successive output means 3 reads out the lecoute of the subscriber's file. If the reading is successful, the subscriber file code is passed to the parameter checking means 4. In the case of an error, an error message is displayed on the console device and the process ends.

FIG. 2 shows the contents of the subscriber file. Its contents include an input data length 11, a data attribute 12, an output data length]3, a conversion indicator 14, and data 15. The parameter checking means 4 checks the contents of records 1 to 1 passed from the file reading means 3, and if it is normal, it is passed to the file expansion means 5, and if it is an error, it displays the error on the console device. The contents of the check are input data length 11 of the contents of record 1- in Figure 2.
and output data length] 3 valid values and data attributes 12, 10
If base number is specified, the data content must be numeric, and if hexadecimal number is specified, the data content must be 0 to 9.
It is checked that the characters are A to F, and if alphanumeric and kana characters are specified, that the content of the data is alphanumeric and kana characters.

The table developing means 5 creates a subscriber terminal management table 6 in a prespecified area on the main memory according to the contents of the records of the subscriber file shown in FIG. If the conversion indicator 14 indicates no conversion, the contents of the data 15 are transferred as they are to the designated area. Conversion specifier]-4
When is data select, the initial value of data 15 is transferred by the length of output data length 13. Conversion indicator 1
If 4 is a decimal to hexadecimal conversion, data 1
Convert the decimal number of 5 to a hexadecimal value and transfer it.

When the conversion indicator 14 is a conversion from hexadecimal to decimal, the hexadecimal of data 15 is converted to decimal and transferred. When the conversion indicator 14 is converting alphanumeric kana characters to hexadecimal numbers, the 19 digits of alphanumeric kana characters in data 15 are converted into 2-digit hexadecimal numbers and transferred. When the conversion indicator 14 is for converting from hexadecimal numbers to alphanumeric characters or kana characters, the data is converted from two hexadecimal digits to one alphanumeric character or kana characters and transferred. If the conversion specifier 14 or label is specified, the label 21 of the data 15 and the current transfer destination address are set in the address pointer creation process shown in FIG. If conversion specifier 14 or pointer is specified, use label 21 of data 15 as a key, and use the third
The address pointer 22 shown in the figure is searched and the searched address pointer is transferred.

When an error is detected in the chiful expansion process, an error message is displayed on the console device.

The above steps are repeated for the file reading means 3, the parameter checking means 4, the file expanding means 5, and all records of the subscriber file. If the subscriber file is a sequential file and is read into an external auxiliary storage medium such as a floppy disk, it can be easily registered and changed using a computer editor.
You can perform operations such as deletion.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, the present invention relates to a subscriber terminal management method in an online system having a large number of subscriber terminals, and subscriber information is stored in an external storage device and can be easily registered, changed, and deleted. This method has the advantage that it can be applied regardless of the format of the online system.
