Description

Method for processing multiple selected data in a wireless communication terminal

The present invention relates to a data multi-selection processing method in a wireless communication terminal, and more particularly, to a list such as a short message service (SMS) or a stored message among menus provided to a user in a wireless communication terminal such as a mobile phone. The present invention relates to a data multi-selection processing method for receiving and processing a multi-selection of a user for a menu that can be displayed.

Since the advent of SMS, SMS of wireless communication terminals has been continuously used, and its frequency of use increases with age. In recent years, there are many parts that users do not need, such as advertisement mails and SMS. Therefore, the user has a lot of inconvenience in terms of the use of such SMS.

For example, consider deleting a SMS message.

Conventionally, a user of a wireless communication terminal confirms a received message and deletes it one by one, or uses a method of emptying the entire box by emptying an inbox.

This method was inconvenient for the user of the wireless communication terminal. Since there are many messages that you want to keep and messages that you want to delete, you have to delete them one by one, especially if you want to delete the rest. If received, this one-by-one deletion would be inconvenient and annoying for the user. Of course, if not deleted, the user was forced to delete all received messages.

This problem occurs not only in the received message but also in the phone book on the wireless communication terminal. In particular, in today's situation where ordinary users frequently change wireless communication terminals, including telephone numbers, and when they meet and forget various people, the management of the telephone directory is necessary for the user's phone call unless deletion and addition are continuously made. Finding number information is not easy.

As such, the process of selecting the necessary data from the entire list is gradually developing into a serious problem. That is, due to the performance improvement of the wireless communication terminal, various types of data such as outgoing messages, picture images, files, etc., as well as simple incoming messages or phone books, are stored in the terminal, and thus deleted, stored, moved, and edited by the user. For example, the data that you want to select will also increase. However, as described above, the wireless communication terminals up to now have a problem in that users can not select only one data when selecting corresponding data from the list.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and the multi-selection processing according to the user's request in the wireless communication terminal is performed through the arrangement management for the index order information that can obtain the actual storage information of the designated data. It is an object of the present invention to provide a data multiple selection processing method in a wireless communication terminal for processing.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for processing data selection in a wireless communication terminal, the method comprising receiving multiple selections of data desired by the user from a list of data provided to the user through the wireless communication terminal. Extracting index order information associated with actual storage information from the display information of the data and storing the index order information in an array form in a database; A second step in which the wireless communication terminal receives a processing request for the multi-selected data from the user; And extracting, by the wireless communication terminal, the index order information stored in the database in an array form, obtaining storage position information of the actual data based on the index order information, and processing the user's request for the data. And a third step.

The above objects, features and advantages will become more apparent from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is an exemplary configuration diagram of a wireless communication terminal to which the present invention is applied.

As shown in the drawing, the wireless communication terminal to which the present invention is applied includes a control unit 10, a voice memory 11, a memory 12, a key input unit 13, a display unit (LCD) 14, and a high frequency (RF) processing unit. (15), the ringing tone generator 16 and the voice processor 17 are included.

Of course, the wireless communication terminal as described above is just one example.

As described above, a user using the wireless communication terminal has a problem in that the terminal does not support it in the conventional situation in which a plurality of data are simultaneously selected and processed from a list of a specific menu, and thus the present invention is inconvenient. In order to solve the same problem, the user can select the desired data multiplely based on the connection relation between the actual stored data information and the information for representing the stored data as a list.

2A and 2B are diagrams illustrating an embodiment of a data multiple selection processing method in a wireless communication terminal according to the present invention.

In describing an embodiment of a data multiple selection processing method in a wireless communication terminal according to the present invention, an SMS, which is one of typical services of a wireless communication terminal, will be described.

If there is a message in the SMS inbox of the wireless communication terminal as shown in Figure 2a, in the prior art, one should be deleted one by one, as shown in Figure 2b when selecting two or more messages in accordance with the present invention, pressing the delete key at the same time, You can delete it.

Referring to the embodiment of the present invention as shown in Figure 2b in detail as follows.

The importance of the present invention is to select multiple messages at the same time, and to process the selected multiple messages at the same time, for example, by deleting them.

The first thing to do is to generate an access key. In describing an embodiment of the present invention, a "confirmation" key located in the key input unit 13 of the wireless communication terminal is assigned as a selection key.

Next, we will look at how to find the selected message in the memory 12 actually stored.

If you look at how SMS works, it uses EFS (Embeded File System), and it can have 30 messages, and each message has an assigned address.

The message in the inbox that the user confirms is not actually obtained through the information about the address and index assigned by EFS, but rather through a separate table related to SMS. In addition, received messages of the wireless communication terminal are rearranged according to the opened order, and unread messages are pushed back in priority. In the user's message inbox, the user does not directly have an index stored in the EFS for the same reason as described above, but separately manages a separate table such as "SMS_TASK".

Therefore, the work to be done in the inbox of the wireless communication terminal should utilize the address and index in the EFS. The inbox of the SMS has a structure as shown in [Table 1] below.

typedef struct {byte list_cat; byte order_idx; boolean lock; byte order;} ui_sms_nv_list_type;

In fact, the order in which EFS is stored is "order_idx", so if you only know "order_idx", you know what I chose. In the present invention, a selection method is provided in which the selected " order_idx " is stored separately in the array.

In this way, an array of "order_idx" messages of several messages selected by the user at the same time is stored in the array, and when the user presses the delete key, the user is asked to confirm the deletion. You can select and delete the saved data.

Next, let's see how to delete it.

Deleting a multi-selected message in a wireless terminal is essentially the same as deleting a single selected message. What you need to think about here is how to delete multiple messages if they are selected at the same time. In this case, you can delete the contents of the address indicated by "order_idx" stored in EFS while looping for the selected index.

By using the method according to the present invention as described above, it is possible to select and delete several messages, or re-arrange after deleting to show the stored messages.

3 is a flowchart illustrating a method of processing data multiple selection in a wireless communication terminal according to the present invention.

As described above with reference to FIG. 3, the multi-selection and deletion request for the SMS message in the wireless communication terminal is received and processed.

First, a user receives a selection of a specific message from a list from a wireless communication terminal user (301).

The processor in charge of the SMS checks the information on the selected message from the user and extracts "order_idx", which is index order information indicating the order in which the data is actually stored (302). The extracted "order_idx" is stored in a separate array (303). That is, the extracted "order_idx" is stored in an array form.

Next, it is checked if the user wishes to further select another message (304). Whether the user wishes to select another message or to process the selected message can be checked by the user's keystrokes. That is, if the user desires to select another message, the user may press the direction key or the additional selection desired key specified in the wireless communication terminal used by the user to select the message. Of course, if the user does not wish to make further selection within a certain time, it can be determined to be deleted.

As a result of checking whether the user wants to select another message, if the user wants to select another message, the process is repeated from step 301 of receiving a message selection from the user.

As a result of checking whether the user wants to select another message further, if the user does not want to select another message, the process proceeds to step 305 where the user is requested to delete the selected message. Of course, it is possible to separately check whether the deletion request and the user's multi-selection are finished as in the present embodiment. Alternatively, it may be confirmed that the user's message selection is finished by the user's deletion request. In the case of the embodiment of the present invention, not only the deletion but also the user can select various commands such as moving and rearranging according to the user's selection.

The SMS processing unit of the wireless communication terminal receiving the deletion request from the user extracts one "order_idx" stored in the array (306). Based on the extracted "order_idx", the EFS identifies the address of the corresponding data (307) and deletes the contents of the address (308).

Finally, it is checked whether the " order_idx " stored in the array according to the user's multiple selection remains in the array (309). As a result of the check, if it remains, the process repeats the process of extracting one " order_idx "

As a result of checking whether "order_idx" remains in the array, if not, the user's multi-selection of the message and the request for deletion of the selected message are all processed. Accordingly, the wireless communication terminal notifies the user and terminates.

The present invention as shown through the above embodiment is not limited to erasing in the SMS inbox, but also applicable to the storage of a multi-selected message and the like, and may be applied to other menus for erasing, storing, and the like. That is, as described above, the wireless communication terminal may be used for various types of data that can be displayed to the user in the form of a list.

In the present invention, the wireless communication terminal collectively represents a portable terminal capable of transmitting / receiving voice, text, and video data through wireless communication.

The method of the present invention as described above may be implemented as a program and stored in a computer-readable recording medium (CD-ROM, RAM, ROM, floppy disk, hard disk, magneto-optical disk, etc.).

The present invention described above is not limited to the above-described embodiments and the accompanying drawings, and various substitutions, modifications, and changes are possible in the art without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention. It will be clear to those of ordinary knowledge.

As described above, the present invention has the effect of providing convenience to the user since the user can process the user's multi-selection on the content that the user has previously requested for processing one by one in the wireless communication terminal.

In addition, the present invention can reduce the processing time of the user's request by being able to process the user's multiple selection can be processed only one time at a time by the user.

In addition, the present invention is able to process multiple services within the wireless communication terminal by receiving a user's multiple selections in accordance with the increasingly diverse types of services provided by the wireless communication terminal. It is effective to make use of.
