Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it unnecessary to vary a processing program in accordance with a language type of a terminal display by executing a registration and read-out of a picture by a key which has added the language type to a name of the picture. CONSTITUTION:A picture registering means 1 adds a language type of a registering picture to a name of its picture and sets it as a work name, and by using this work name as a key, the picture is registered in a picture library 4. On the other hand, a language type comparing means 2 compares a language type of a terminal display 5 and the language type which has been determined in advance and determines a language type of the picture. Subsequently, a picture display means 3 generates a work name from the language type which has been determined by the comparing means 2 and a picture name to be displayed, reads out the picture stored in the library 4 by a procedure which has been determined in advance and displays it on the display 5. In this way, it becomes unnecessary to vary a processing program in accordance with the language type of the terminal display.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a screen display method, and particularly to a method for displaying a screen on a terminal display of a computer system.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, the processing program for displaying a screen on a terminal display required a Japanese program for Japanese terminals, and an English program for English terminals. Therefore, when Japanese terminals and English terminals coexist in the same system, two programs for the same processing are required.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

In the conventional screen display method described above, multiple screen display programs are required depending on the language type of the terminal display, so multiple programs for the same process must be created, and they must also be maintained. It has the disadvantage of creating double waste.

In view of the above points, an object of the present invention is to provide a screen display method that does not require different processing programs depending on the language type of the terminal display.

[Means for solving problems]

The screen display method of the present invention includes a screen registration means for registering a screen in a screen library using a screen name to which the language type of the screen is added as a key, and a language type that is predetermined by the language type of the terminal display and the system user. a language type comparing means for determining the language type of the screen displayed on the terminal display by comparing the language type with the screen library; and screen display means for reading out the screen from the screen and displaying it on the terminal display.

〔Example〕

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

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention. The screen display method of this embodiment includes a screen registration means 1, a language type comparison means 2, a screen display means 3, and a screen library in which the screen is stored. 4, a terminal display 5 for displaying a screen, and a host computer 6.

Referring to FIG. 2, the processing in the language type comparison means 2 consists of a language type comparison step 21, a displayability determination step 22, and language type determination steps 23, 24 and 25.

Referring to FIG. 3, the business name, which is the key when registering and reading screens from the screen library 4 by the screen registration means 1 and the screen display means 3, is based on the language type and the name of the screen (screen name). It consists of

Next, the operation of the screen display method of this embodiment configured as described above will be explained with reference to the drawings.

Screen registration means 1 adds the language type of the screen to the name of the screen to be registered as a business name, and registers the screen in the screen library 4 using this business name as a key.Screen registration means 1
When registering screens in , if the screen content is the same but the language type is different, the screen name is the same and only the language type is registered separately9 For example, as shown in Figure 4, Suppose that there is a screen 41 created with language type J" and a screen 42 created with language type "E", and the contents of both are the same. Since the contents of screen 41 and screen 42 are the same, If the same screen name ABCD is registered in the screen library 4, the screen 41 will be the screen 43 with the business name JABCD, and the screen 42 will be the screen 4 with the business name EABCD.
4, respectively.

When the user declares to start using the system from the terminal display 5 connected to the host computer 6, the language type comparison means 2 compares the language type a of the terminal display 5 with the language predetermined by the user in step 21. Compare with type b.

If the language types a and b are the same, the language type is determined to be a in step 25. If language types a and b are not the same, it is determined in step 22 whether the terminal display 5 can display a screen of language type b. If the terminal display 5 can display a screen of language type b, the language type is determined to be b in step 23. Furthermore, if the terminal display 5 cannot display a screen of language type b, the language type is determined to be a in step 24.

Next, the screen display means 3 generates a business name from the language type determined by the language type comparison means 2 and the screen name to be displayed, and reads out the screen stored in the screen library 4 according to a predetermined procedure. and displayed on the terminal display 5.

The language type determined by the language type comparison means 2 is valid until the user declares the end of use of the system, and during that time a screen matching the language type is displayed on the terminal display 5.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention has the following effects by using a key in which the language type is added to the screen name when registering a screen to the screen library and updating the screen.

■ Conventionally, the language types were different but the content was the same, for example, A.
When translating a screen created in language B to language B, programs for language A and language B were required, but with the present invention, the screen name (common to languages A and B) is ) with the language type added to register and read the screen, there is no need to divide the program into two.

■ As a result of (■), only one program is required to be maintained regardless of the language type.
