Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a message distribution system, and more particularly, in an online processing system, a non-general-purpose computer such as an exchange or dedicated hardware, or a connection partner device including a general-purpose computer for distributing work by software, The present invention relates to a message distribution method for distributing a message when a response message having no business distribution information is transmitted and received.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a connection partner device connected to a conventional online processing system including a non-general-purpose computer or a general-purpose computer, a response message to be transmitted corresponds to a work required by the online processing system on the connection partner device. In some cases, you cannot set business distribution information that identifies the business program to be started from the program. This is fixedly pre-arranged before building the online processing system, and when the online processing system and the connection destination device such as the non-general-purpose computer or the general-purpose computer are newly connected, the non-general-purpose computer, Due to an arrangement with a third-party device other than a general-purpose computer, it is impossible to set business distribution information, or it is fixed in hardware and cannot be corrected.

FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining a conventional message distribution system. In the figure, a processing-oriented business program is detected by a distribution program specializing in business distribution,
It shows a method of allocating a business to a processing-based business program based on a response from a non-general-purpose computer.

The business program 1 used here is a program in the online processing system, and requests the message transmitting / receiving program 2 to transmit the request message 5. The message sending / receiving program 2 sends a message to the non-general-purpose computer, receives a response message 6 from the non-general-purpose computer, and delivers it to the distribution-dedicated program. Distribution-only program 3
Attaches the distribution information to the response message 6 and sends it to the processing subject business program 4. Processing subject business program 4
Distributes the work and processes each response message.

Next, the flow of processing will be described with reference to FIG. In the figure, the numbers from to correspond to the order of each process described below. The business program 1 sends a request to send the request message 5 to the message sending / receiving program 2. The message sending / receiving program 2 that has received the message from the business program 1 sends the request message 5 to the non-general-purpose computer (not shown) via the communication path of the communication path number “1”. Next, the response message 6 from the communication path 1 is received by the message transmitting / receiving program 2. The message sending / receiving program 2 fixedly delivers the response message 6 to the distribution dedicated program 3. The dedicated distribution program 3 adds the distribution information (a) to the response message 6 received from the message transmission / reception program 2 and sends it to the processing subject business program 4. The processing-based business program 4 performs business distribution processing, and processes the response message 6 based on the distributed processing. In the figure, the distribution information (a) is the response message 6
Therefore, in the processing-oriented business program 4, the message sending / receiving program 1
The process of “response message + (a)” received from 2 is performed.

[0006]

However, the conventional method detects a processing subject business program which is a subject of processing by a distribution program specialized in business distribution,
There is no choice but to allocate to that program. Therefore, there is a problem that a dedicated distribution program is required when connecting a non-general-purpose computer or the like for which business distribution information cannot be set to an online processing system.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points,
For some reason, when connecting to a non-general-purpose computer etc. for which business distribution information cannot be set in the response message, the business message can be distributed to the processing-based business program without going through a dedicated business distribution program. The purpose is to provide a distribution method.

[0008]

According to the present invention, a request message for requesting a business process is sent from an online processing system to a connection partner device connected to the online processing system, and a response message corresponding to the request message is sent. When returning from the connected device to the online processing system,
When the business program of the online processing system sends a request message to the connection partner device, the distribution information that identifies the processing-based business program that processes the response message is added to the request message as a parameter, and the request message is sent to the message sending / receiving program. The sending and message sending / receiving program temporarily saves the distribution information, and when the response message is received from the connection partner device, the response message is directly delivered to the processing subject business program based on the distribution information.

[0009]

According to the present invention, in the business program, when the distribution of the business of the processing subject business program is added to the request message in advance as a parameter and sent to the message transmitting / receiving program, the message transmitting / receiving program saves the distribution information and transmits the request message. When the response message is received from the connection partner device, the message transmission / reception program sends it to the connection partner device, adds the saved distribution information to the response message, and sends it to the processing subject business program. Therefore, the response message is directly notified from the message transmitting / receiving program to the processing subject business program that processes the response message to the request message sent by the business program. As a result, the dedicated distribution program located between the electronic message sending / receiving program and the processing subject business program becomes unnecessary.

[0010]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining one embodiment of the present invention. In the present embodiment, the electronic message sending / receiving program 1 is executed without the distribution dedicated program 3 used in the conventional method.
In step 2, it is directly assigned to the processing-based business program. It should be noted that the present embodiment will be described by taking a non-general-purpose computer as an example of a connection destination device connected to the online processing system.

The flow from the transmission request made by the business program 11 to the business distribution of the processing subject business program 4 will be described with reference to FIG. The numbers 1 to 3 shown in the figure correspond to the order of each process described below. The business program 11 adds the distribution information (a) of the processing subject business program 4 of the predetermined response message to the request message 15 to the non-general-purpose computer (not shown), and sends the request message 15 to the message sending / receiving program 12. Request to send. Upon receiving the transmission request from the business program 11, the electronic message transmission / reception program 12 links the destination communication path number with the distribution information (a) and saves it in the distribution table.
FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram of a distribution table for obtaining distribution information from a communication path in a message sending / receiving program according to an embodiment of the present invention. The distribution table shown in FIG. 2 stores the number of the communication path to the non-general-purpose computer and the corresponding distribution information.
When the saving to the distribution table is completed, the request message 15 'is transmitted to the non-general purpose computer or the like. In the example of FIG. 1, it is assumed that the transmission is performed using the communication path number “1”. Next, the electronic message sending / receiving program 12 receives a response electronic message to the request electronic message 15 'from the non-general-purpose computer or the like using the same communication path as the transmission. Upon receiving the response message 16, the message transmitting / receiving program 12 detects the distribution information saved in the distribution table using the communication channel number as a key, adds the distribution information (a) to the response message 16, and then returns the response message 16 'To the processing subject business program 4.

As described above, since the electronic message sending / receiving program 12 can directly distribute the business to the processing subject business program 4, it is not necessary to create a conventional distribution dedicated program.

Although the above embodiment has been described for a non-general purpose computer, the present invention is also applied to a general purpose computer which is connected to an online processing system and for which the task distribution information cannot be set in the response message for some reason. it can.

[0014]

As described above, according to the present invention, when connecting an online processing system to a connection partner device such as a non-general-purpose computer or a general-purpose computer for which no task distribution information can be set in the response message, Since the work is distributed to the processing main business program without going through the special distribution program for distribution, it is not necessary to create a special distribution program. Further, the processing performance of the online processing system is improved because the distribution dedicated program is not used.
