Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily execute a program analysis by only inputting an analysis program name to a maintenance terminal, and also to execute the program analysis without stopping an operation of an electronic exchange. CONSTITUTION:A maintenance person inputs a name of an analysis program from a maintenance terminal 2, retrieves a symbol file, converts it into a program address and transmits it to an electronic exchange 1. A processor 4 sets a program analysis point 9 to an exchange control program 8, and executes a processing of the program analysis point 9. Also, by suspending the exchange control, and transferring the processing to a program analysis support program 10, an analysis processing of the program is executed. A result is stored in an analysis result store area 11 ad when the analysis is finished, the stored analysis result is sent out to the maintenance terminal 2. The processor 4 restarts the exchange processing from the time of suspension of the exchange control program 8, and displays on a screen all the analysis results that the maintenance terminal 2 receives from the electronic exchange 1.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an electronic exchange program analysis method used for program analysis by a debug support program built into an electronic exchange.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In the conventional electronic exchange program analysis method, an in-circuit electronic exchange program analysis emulator (ICE) is connected to the electronic exchange instead of the processor. In this case, the maintenance person adjusts the program address from the symbol list and inputs it to the ICE, and the program analysis using the program trace function of this ICE is performed.

[0003]

However, in the conventional electronic exchange program analysis method, the maintenance person must check the address of the program to be analyzed.
This is a troublesome task for maintenance personnel. In addition, when connecting the ICE to the electronic exchange, the operation of the electronic exchange must be temporarily stopped.

An object of the present invention is to provide an electronic exchange program analysis method which enables the program analysis to be easily carried out only by inputting a program name to be analyzed into a maintenance terminal, and which can perform the program analysis without stopping the operation of the electronic exchange. Especially.

[0005]

An electronic exchange program analysis method according to the present invention comprises an electronic exchange having a processor having a program debug / support function and a maintenance terminal connected to the electronic exchange. , When the program name for analysis is entered, the symbol file in the maintenance terminal is searched, the address sending means for converting to the program address and sending it to the electronic exchange, and the program analysis result sent from the electronic exchange are maintained. The electronic exchange is provided with a display means for displaying on the terminal, the electronic exchange sets the means for setting the address sent from the maintenance terminal in the processor as a program analysis point, and when the processor executes the processing of the program analysis point, the program analysis processing is Program analysis support that outputs the result to the maintenance terminal. It is intended and a program unit.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of an electronic exchange program analysis system of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows the configuration of the embodiment.

In FIG. 1, a maintenance terminal 2 is attached to an electronic exchange 1.
Are connected through the connection cable 3. The electronic exchange 1 is equipped with a processor 4 having a debug support function. A symbol file 5 is built in the electronic exchange 1.

FIG. 2 shows the structure of the symbol file 5.

The symbol file 5 has a program name 6
And program address 7.

FIG. 3 shows a control function when the program analysis of the processor 4 is performed.

The processor 4 has an exchange control program 8, a program analysis point 9, a program analysis support program 10, and an analysis result storage area 11 built therein.

Next, the operation of this configuration will be described.

FIG. 4 shows the processing procedure of the operation.

The maintenance person inputs the program name for analysis from the maintenance terminal 2, and this input is judged (step (S) 101). The maintenance terminal 2 uses the symbol file 5
Is searched for, converted into a program address, and transmitted to the electronic exchange 1 through the connection cable 3 (S102, 10).
3). Here, the converted program address is used as the program analysis point 9. The processor 4 sets the program analysis point 9 in the exchange control program 8 (S201). Then, the processor 4 monitors whether the processing to be executed is an analysis point or not, and the processor 4 executes the processing of the program analysis point 9 (S202). Processor 4
The exchange control is interrupted, and the processing shifts to the program analysis support program 10. The program analysis support program 10 performs a program analysis process (S20).
3). This result is stored in the analysis result storage area 11.
When the analysis is completed, the accumulated analysis result is sent to the maintenance terminal 2 (S204). The processor 4 restarts the exchange process when the exchange control program 8 is interrupted. The maintenance terminal 2 is
All the analysis results received from the electronic exchange 1 are displayed on the screen (S104).

[0016]

As is apparent from the above description, the electronic exchange program analysis method of the present invention utilizes the program debug / support function of the processor, and also incorporates the program analysis support program into the processor for maintenance. Since the terminal is provided with the symbol list, the program analysis can be easily performed only by inputting the program name to be analyzed to the maintenance terminal, and further, the program analysis can be performed without stopping the operation of the electronic exchange.
