Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve reliability by forming a program for a key input processing by only writing prescribed information in a key input processing setting file. CONSTITUTION:As for a key input processing setting file 1, information such as a processing number, a key input classification, a read-out position, read-out length, a display character classification is set in advance. Also, the file is provided with a key input processing selection common memory 2 and a keyboard 3, and also, has a key input processing file read-out subroutine S1 and a key input processing subroutine S2. In this state, when a key input is executed from the keyboard 3, the subroutine S1 reads out the contents of the file 1, and sets it to the memory 2. By a key input processing, inputted information is converted to data corresponding to returning data classification, therefore, in a data processor which receives it, it can be utilized as it is without executing any working.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a method for processing key input to a combinator including a microcomputer.

[Conventional technology]

Generally, when data is processed interactively with a comviator, a series of operations are performed, for example, by sequentially selecting menus displayed on a CRT. At this time, key input is performed to select the menu, but the types of keys such as numeric keys and alphabet keys that can be used and the processing contents are usually predetermined by the program. .

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

Therefore, if the key input type or processing content is to be changed in the key input process, the program must be changed.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a key input processing method that does not require changing the program even if the key input type or processing content is changed.

[Ninth means to solve the problem]

Create in advance four predetermined files that individually define the input layer information and processing contents to be handled in each of the plurality of key input processing processes, and set the contents of the configuration file in a predetermined memory each time a key input is made. After determining whether or not the key input is appropriate by referring to a predetermined one of the set files, the key input process is performed according to the file contents.

[Effect]

By doing as described above, key input processing can be changed without modifying the program.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the invention in detail, and FIG.
The figure is an explanatory diagram for explaining an example of the contents of a key input processing setting file.

In FIG. 1, 1 is a key input process setting file, which includes a process number, as shown in FIG. 2, for example.

Key input type, successive position, successive length, echo pack.

Information such as display character type, return data type, zero suppression, etc. is set in advance. The process number is selected by a data processing device (not shown) in correspondence with each key input process. The successive position is the display start position of letters, numbers, etc. corresponding to the key input on the CRT, the read length is the data length,
-Pack is information indicating whether to display or not. The type of return data is JiS, 5H, which is the key input information.
iFTJiS, single-length integer, single-length integer, single-precision real number.

It shows the data type to be converted into code information such as double-precision real number and returned to the data processing device. Also included is information on whether to display characters in full-width or half-width size, and information on whether to suppress zero.

In the figure, reference numeral 2 indicates a common memory for selecting key input processing, 3 indicates a keyboard, SL indicates a key input processing file reading subroutine, and 82 indicates a key input processing subroutine.

Here, when there is a key input from the keyboard 3, the subroutine S1 reads the contents of the file 1 and stores it in the memory 2.
Set to . For example, if subroutine S2 is to perform processing with process number 10'', subroutine S2
If the key-in information is alphanumeric (A-Z) or numbers (
0 to 9), the key input process specified by the process number @0'' is performed; otherwise, the key input process is invalidated.

In the key input process, the input information is converted into data according to the type of return data, so that the received data processing device can use the tt without any processing. Note that if the key input processing information is not registered, normal key input processing is performed.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to this invention, a program for key input processing can be created by simply writing predetermined information in a key input processing setting file, and the program can be easily modified, which not only saves the effort of creating and modifying the program. , there is an advantage that the reliability of key input processing is improved.

Claims (1)

[Claims] A setting file is created in advance that individually defines the input processing information to be handled in each of a plurality of key input processing processes and its processing contents, and the contents of the setting file are stored in a predetermined memory each time a key input is made. 1. A key input processing method, comprising: setting a predetermined one of the set files to determine whether or not the key input is appropriate, and then performing key input processing according to the file contents.
