According to various embodiments, the control module 160 may determine whether data to be written by a user input is larger than the size of the predetermined area, such as multi-unicode, in a state in which the size of the predetermined area in the second half of the specific page remains.

The control module 160 may write data to be written (eg, multi-Unicode data) from the upper half of the next page when the size of the predetermined area in the second half of the specific page is smaller than the size of the data to be written. The control module 160 may discard a message body area in which data is not written (Discard) or write specific information (eg, space data). When the area in which data is not written is discarded, the control module 160 may change the definition of the message body area of the message header area. For example, when the total size of the message body area is 140 bytes and data of 138 bytes is written in the message body area, 138 may be written in the message header area as size information of the message body area.

According to various embodiments, in the case of a multi-page message according to the UTF-16 coding method, the control module 160 may fill a space in 2 bytes if the last 2 bytes of a specific page are within the Unicode Surrogate range. According to various embodiments, if the last 2 bytes of a specific page are within the Unicode Surrogate range, the control module 160 may fill 2 bytes with Carriage Return or Line Feed. According to various embodiments, if the last 2 bytes of a specific page are within the Unicode Surrogate range, the control module 160 indicates that UTF-32 Character exists in UDH and reads the value when converting (eg, decoding) a message in the other electronic device 101 It can support decoding normally after detecting UTF-32 character.

When the user inputs one of the UTF-32 strings, the control module 160 outputs a warning message using at least one of the display module 140 and the audio module 130, and another service method (eg, at least one of SMS, MMS, SNS, and chat channels). 1) can be used. According to various embodiments, in the process of displaying one piece of information such as UTF-32, specific character code information (eg, UTF-32, etc.) in a boundary area of multi-pages in a multi-page creation process, for example, a predetermined area in the second half of the current page and a predetermined area in the first half of the next page When data according to a byte-required data) needs to be written, the control module 160 may control to output a warning message using at least one of the display module 140 and the audio module 130 . For example, the display module 140 may output a message requesting input of other data (data requiring a single byte) or a message guiding that a page may be increased according to a multi-byte input.

According to various embodiments, when the user uses multi-byte Unicode type data (eg, Emoji), the control module 160 may request confirmation of whether to convert to a specific code type (eg, 7BIT SMILEY) for compatibility. When an answer to the corresponding confirmation request is received, the control module 160 may perform message processing by matching undefined data with its own code table (eg, SMILEY TABLE) installed in the electronic device 100 .

10 illustrates message processing related to message transmission according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 10 , when a message to be transmitted is a multi-page (or a plurality of pages) including pages 1001 and 1002, the control module 160 may check whether undefined data is included in the page.

Here, page 1001 may include a message header area 1011 and a message body area 1010 . The 1002th page may include a message header area 1021 and a message body area 1020 . The message body area 1010 may include a 1001 defined area 1012 and an undefined area 1013 in which specific information (eg, space, line-feed, carriage return, etc.) is written or removed. When data exists in the undefined area 1013 as shown in the message body area to be transmitted, the control module 160 may extract data from the undefined area 1013 .

The control module 160 may arrange the extracted data of the undefined area 1013 at a predetermined position of the page 1002 . For example, the control module 160 may arrange the extracted data of the undefined area 1013 before the undefined area 1023 located in the first half of the page 1002 . In this regard, the control module 160 shifts (shifts) the data of the undefined area 1023 and the data of the defined area 1024 among the contents of the page 1002 by a certain data area (the size of the undefined area 1013) within the message body area 1020. ) can be done. Accordingly, the control module 160 may sequentially arrange the data of the undefined area 1013 and the data of the undefined area 1023 . This operation may be performed in the process of generating a message to be transmitted based on user data input by the user in the message application. For example, when the control module 160 receives the amount of user data that needs to generate a multi-page from the message application, it can check whether multi-byte code type data is placed in a certain area of the data, for example, in the boundary area of the page divided by the message standard. have. When multi-byte code type data is disposed in the boundary area, the control module 160 may perform the above-described operation to control writing as completely defined data instead of writing as undefined data. Here, the control module 160 may control to arrange some data arranged in the boundary area of the pages in the first half of the next page.

In the above process, when the entire message content exceeds a predetermined size of the message body area 1020 due to the addition of data in the undefined area 1013, the control module 160 creates a new page 1003 and writes the data of the predetermined size to the page 1003. can be controlled The control module 160 may control to transmit a corresponding message to the other electronic device 101 when the operation of continuously arranging data in the undefined area is completed.

According to various embodiments, the control module 160 may perform real-time processing when user data is input in relation to writing a message. For example, the control module 160 writes data in the message body region in the order in which user data is input, and when it becomes a predetermined region in the second half of the message body region, some data of the multi-byte code type data (data that is not defined as only a part is described) ) can be checked whether only the corresponding area is entered. When only some data is to be written in the corresponding area, the control module 160 may create a new page and write data corresponding to one character, icon, emoji, or the like on the created page. Here, the control module 160 may perform a function of guiding whether to change the code type before generating a page, outputting a warning message guiding that multi-page generation is required, and the like.
