Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate the requirement for searching a modifying portions by preparing an intermediate job execution control statement mixed with an enquiry and description for a specific job control statement and creating a final and interactive final job execution control statement. CONSTITUTION:An intermediate job control statement 10 held by a suitable holding device such as a magnetic recording medium or card etc., comprises a fixed one requiring no correction and a statement requiring an assignment of an information since every time of the execution of job, there is high probability to be corrected. The intermediate job control statement 10 is read sequentially by one statement in an enquiry and response processor 20 and decided to be a fixed or a statement requiring the assignment of the information by a decision section 21. Then, if it is decided to be a statement requiring the assignment of the information, an enquiry section 22 gives a statement (A) to a response processor 23, and thereafter, outputs a first enquiry and description (B-1) to a display device 31.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Object of the invention Industrial field of application The present invention is directed to the job of an electronic meter'R machine: l1lJ 1ffl
Zip f+IJ i to create l statement
'This relates to the JU statement creation system.

Control of job execution in a conventional technical computer is performed by providing a job control 011 statement under the control of a job management program immediately before job execution.

Job system? The 'Jll statement includes parts that need to be changed every time execution control is executed (7), but the proportion of parts such as (1, ) to the whole is generally small. Therefore.

Regarding the execution control of jobs that are executed repeatedly, it is common to modify only the necessary portions of a job control statement created once each time it is executed, and then use it repeatedly.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention The correction of the above job plagiarism 1 statement is usually done using a text editor, but since it is first necessary to search for the correction location, omissions in corrections are likely to occur due to a lack of search. There's a problem.

In addition, the person performing the modification work is required to have the ability to understand the contents of the job control statement and the ability to use the text editor, which is inconvenient for the user.・Means for solving the problems of the structure of the invention The system of the present invention that solves the problems of the above-mentioned prior art includes a query description for querying information that needs to be specified each time job control is performed, and a method for processing a response to this query. Maintain intermediate job control statements containing response processing descriptions that describe the

This intermediate job control statement is given to the inquiry/response processing means. This inquiry/response processing means outputs the inquiry description in the given intermediate job control statement, and creates a final job control statement based on the response to this inquiry and the response processing description.

Hereinafter, the operation of the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to Examples.

Embodiment FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram showing the configuration of a job control statement creation system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

This system includes a holding device 10 that holds intermediate job control statements, one inquiry/response processing device 20, and one output device 30, and by processing the intermediate job control statements of the holding means 10, Create the final job control statement 40.

Intermediate job control statements held in a suitable holding bag v10 such as a magnetic recording medium or card are classified into fixed job control statements that do not require modification and information that is likely to be modified each time a job is executed. Consists of job control statements that require specification. Job control statements that require the specification of information include the accounting number (ACCOUNT) of the job execution fee billing light, user name (USER), etc., as illustrated in Figure 2.
A job control statement (A) that describes information that needs to be specified each time a job is executed, and a query description (F') that requests the user to manually input this information. It consists of a response processing description (C) that describes how to process the received information.

A job control statement that requires specification of information is given an appropriate identification code to distinguish it from other job control statements. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the former job control statement starts with Sludge 1 (1). Further, each query description and response processing description starts with a question mark (?) and an asterisk (*), respectively. moreover.

The end of this job control statement is indicated by a double asterisk (**).

The intermediate job control statements 10 are sequentially read into the inquiry/response processing device 20 in an appropriate middle order, for example, one statement at a time, and the job control statement determination unit 21 determines whether it is a fixed job control statement or not. It is determined whether the job control statement requires specification. Those determined to be fixed job control statements are output as they are to the output unit 24.
passed to. On the other hand, job control statements that are determined to require information specification are passed to the 1-inquiry unit 22.

The inquiry unit 22 includes the job control statement determination unit 21
After passing the statement (A) passed from
0 to the inquiry display device 31. This query description (
B-1) is one inquiry display device 31 as shown in FIG.
displayed above. At the same time, the first inquiry unit 22 passes to the response processing unit 22 a response processing description (C-2) that describes how to process a response to the first inquiry description.

When the user inputs the requested accounting number 1, for example 790, from the response manual device 32 to the response processing unit 23 as shown in FIG. 3, this is also displayed on the 1 inquiry display device 31 for confirmation by the user. Ru.

The response processing device 33 receives the accounting number 790.

According to the response processing description (, C-1), replace ACCOU'NT in the job control statement (A) with 790. When the replacement is completed, the response processing unit 23 notifies the inquiry unit 22 of this fact. Upon receiving this notification, the inquiry unit 22 outputs the secondary inquiry description (R-2) to the inquiry display device 31, and also outputs the corresponding response processing description (C-2).
is passed to the response processing section 23.

”A job control statement for which two inquiries and response processing have been completed through two consecutive processes can be used as an example of other fixed job control statements as shown in Figure 4. Final job control statements similar to MII statements.

and is passed to the output section 24. The final job control statement in Figure 4 calculates the job execution cost by accounting number 7.
What should be requested to number 90 and the user is O,5UZLJK
It has been shown that T.

In this way, intermediate job control statement 1
When processing for all job control statements making up 0 is completed, the final job control statement 40 is output from the output unit 24.

Although replacement with input information has been exemplified as the content of the response process, it is also possible to include processing such as performing arithmetic or logical operations on input information and replacing W with the result of the operation. For example, the final job control statement can be created using the results of arithmetic '/'A calculations and logic calculations of a plurality of pieces of information regarding the sizes of input buffers and blocks.

Effects of the Invention As explained in detail above, the job control statement creation system of the present invention prepares an intermediate job execution control statement mixed with a query description for a specific job control statement, and based on this, creates an interactive job control statement. Since the final job execution control statement is created in the final job execution control statement, the user does not have to search for corrections each time a job is executed. Therefore, there is an effect that omission of correction due to omission of search as in the prior art does not occur at all.

Furthermore, even a person who does not know the contents of a job control statement or who cannot use a text editor can be involved in the modification work, which is extremely convenient for the user.
