Referring to FIG. 2, in the message operating method according to an embodiment, the control module 160 of the electronic device 100 may perform a function operation or standby of the electronic device 100 in operation 201. For example, the control module 160 may maintain a sleep mode state (eg, a state in which the display module 140 is turned off), or may perform a lock screen state, a standby screen state, or the like. Alternatively, the control module 160 may support performing a specific function, such as a sound source playback function, a file playback function, a file editing function, and a web access function, according to schedule information or an input event. The control module 160 may maintain the communication interface 110 in a standby state to enable message reception.

The control module 160 may check whether an event related to message reception occurs in operation 203. For example, the control module 160 may check whether a multimedia message or a short text message (SMS) is received.

If there is no event related to message reception in operation 203, the control module 160 may branch to operation 205 and control the execution of a function according to the type of the generated event. Alternatively, the control module 160 may control to maintain a previous function operation state when no separate event occurs, or control entering a sleep mode (eg, a mode in which the display module 140 is transitioned to a turn-off state) or maintaining a previous state.

When a message is received in operation 203, the control module 160 checks whether the code type data set in operation 207 (e.g., data written in a code method that allocates multiple bytes to one character expression, UTF-16, etc.) is included. I can. In addition, the control module 160 may check whether the message received in operation 207 is a multipage. In this regard, the control module 160 may check whether a multi-page exists by checking the header area of the received message. In this process, the control module 160 may first check whether the message is multi-page, and may check whether the set code type data is included. Alternatively, the control module 160 may check whether the message includes code type data set in the message, and then check whether the message is multipage.

If the code type data set in operation 207 (e.g., UTF-16 data) exists and the received message is multi-page, the control module 160 checks whether the data at a certain position of the page is included in the set range value in operation 209.

In operation 209, when the data of the predetermined position is included in the set range value, the control module 160 may perform message conversion processing by combining the predetermined position data of the second half of the previous page and the predetermined position data of the first half of the next page in operation 211. During this process, the control module 160 stores certain position data (e.g., undefined data) of the second half of the previous page in the memory 181, and indicates that there is a separated character string on the page (e.g., a specific flag or register related to message processing). Value can be converted). The control module 160 may check whether the previous page includes undefined data (eg, a separated string, etc.) in a process of processing a message of a next page. When the control module 160 includes undefined data, it may perform one character processing by combining the predetermined position data of the upper half of the current page and the undefined data stored in the memory 181. The control module 160 may perform message restoration by processing undefined data in a process of restoring a multi-page message and placing a generated character between data of a previous page and data of a next page.

If there is no data of the code type set in operation 207 or is not multi-page, the control module 160 may perform message conversion processing according to the setting in operation 213. For example, if the message is not a multi-page message, the control module 160 may process a message according to a single page message processing method. In addition, in operation 209, when data of a predetermined position is not included in a set range value or corresponds to defined data, in operation 213, the control module 160 may perform message conversion processing according to a setting.

In operation 215, the control module 160 may check whether an event related to termination of the electronic device 100 occurs.

8 is a diagram illustrating a message management method based on multi-page verification according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 8, in a message operating method according to an embodiment, the control module 160 of the electronic device 100 may perform a function operation or standby of the electronic device 100 in operation 801. In this process, the control module 160 may control the communication interface 110 to supply power and maintain the camping-on process. The control module 160 may check whether an event related to message reception occurs in operation 803.

If there is no event related to message reception in operation 803, the control module 160 may branch to operation 805 and control the execution of a function according to the type of the event. Alternatively, the control module 160 may control to maintain a previous function operation state when no separate event occurs, or may control entering a sleep mode (eg, a mode in which the display module 140 transitions to a turn-off state).

When a message is received in operation 803, the control module 160 may check whether the message received in operation 807 is a multipage. The control module 160 may check whether the reference number indicates a plurality of pages by checking the header area of the received message. Alternatively, the control module 160 may check whether a multi-page message is received by checking whether there is a UDH disposed only in the multi-page message.

If the received message is a multi-page message, the control module 160 may check whether undefined data exists in the received message content in operation 809. For example, the control module 160 may check whether data of a predetermined predetermined position in the message body area is undefined data. Here, the predefined predetermined location may be different according to the message type (eg, the size of the message body area, the size of data (code information) allocated to each character or icon, emoticon, etc.) included in the message content. If undefined data exists in the message content, the control module 160 may process and store the undefined data in operation 811. For example, the control module 160 may perform one character processing by combining undefined data, and insert the remaining message contents to perform message restoration. The control module 160 may store the received multi-page message in the storage module 150. Here, the control module 160 may process message reception notification.

If the message received in operation 807 is not multi-page, the control module 160 may control to branch to operation 813 and perform a message-related function. For example, the control module 160 may read data according to a predetermined bit or byte size according to a message conversion type (eg, an encoding type) written in a message header area of a single page, and output a string mapped to the read data.

If undefined data does not exist in the message received in operation 809, the control module 160 may control to branch to operation 813 and perform a message-related function. The control module 160 may check encoding information by checking the message header area of the first page among the multi-pages, and control string conversion based on this.

In operation 815, the control module 160 may check whether an event related to message output occurs. If an event related to message output occurs in operation 815, the control module 160 may perform message output in operation 817. In operation 815, if there is no message output and a brief event, the control module 160 may skip operation 817.

The control module 160 may check whether an event related to the termination of the electronic device 100 occurs in operation 819. When an event related to termination occurs in operation 819, the control module 160 may control termination of a function related to message conversion processing and termination of the electronic device 100. If there is no event related to termination in operation 819, the control module 160 may branch to before operation 803 and perform the following process again.

9 is a diagram illustrating a message management method related to message transmission according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 9, in a message operating method according to an embodiment, the control module 160 of the electronic device 100 may perform a function operation or standby of the electronic device 100 in operation 901. In operation 903, the control module 160 may check whether an event related to message transmission occurs. If there is no event related to message transmission in operation 903, the control module 160 may branch to operation 905 and control a function execution according to the type of the generated event. Alternatively, the control module 160 may control to maintain a previous function operation state when no separate event occurs, or may control entering a sleep mode (eg, a mode in which the display module 140 transitions to a turn-off state).

When an event related to message transmission occurs in operation 903, the control module 160 may perform message transmission related processing. For example, the control module 160 may control a function of outputting a message creation window, inputting a character corresponding to an input user input, and outputting to the display module 140 based on a virtual input keypad or a physical keypad. When a message transmission is requested after inputting the phone number or phonebook information of the other electronic device 101, the control module 160 may determine whether the message to be transmitted is a multi-page message in operation 907.

If the message to be transmitted is a multi-page, the control module 160 may check whether undefined data for each page exists in operation 909. When undefined data for each page exists in operation 909, the control module 160 may perform page processing in operation 911. According to an embodiment, the control module 160 may extract undefined data arranged on a specific page and place it in a predetermined area in the upper half of the next page. The control module 160 may transmit the page-processed message to the other electronic device 101 in operation 913.

The control module 160 may check whether an event related to the termination of the electronic device 100 occurs in operation 915. When an event related to termination occurs in operation 915, the control module 160 may control termination of a function related to message conversion processing and termination of the electronic device 100. If there is no event related to termination in operation 915, the control module 160 may branch to before operation 903 and perform the following process again.

According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, when multi-page creation is performed because the data size exceeds a predetermined size (eg, a predetermined byte size defined in the message standard) by a user input in the message creation window, the control module 160 has undefined data. You can check whether or not. For example, the control module 160 may check whether the size of the predetermined area in the second half of the specific page is equal to or larger than the size of data to be written. According to various implementations, the control module 160 may check whether data to be written by a user input is larger than the size of the predetermined area, such as multi-Unicode, while 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 top 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 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, if 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 in the Unicode Surrogate range. According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, if the last 2 bytes of a specific page are within the Unicode Surrogate range, the control module 160 may fill 2 bytes with a Carriage Return or Line Feed. According to various embodiments, if the last 2 bytes of a specific page are in the Unicode Surrogate range, the control module 160 indicates that there is a UTF-32 character in the UDH, and reads the corresponding value when the other electronic device 101 converts a message (eg, Decoding). After detecting a UTF-32 character, it can support normal decoding.

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 other service methods (e.g., at least one of SMS, MMS, SNS, and chat channels) One) can be guided. According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, in the process of displaying a single piece of information (eg, UTF-32, etc.) in a boundary area of multi-pages, for example, a certain area of the second half of a current page and a certain area of the next When data according to (data requiring bytes) is 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 may output a message indicating that a page may increase according to a multi-byte input.

According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, when the user uses multi-byte Unicode type data (eg, Emoji), for compatibility, the control module 160 may request to confirm whether to convert to a specific code type (eg, 7BIT SMILEY). When a response to a corresponding confirmation request is received, the control module 160 may perform message processing by matching undefined data with an 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, if 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. The control module 160 may extract data of the undefined area 1013 if data exists in the undefined area 1013 as shown in the message body area to be transmitted.

The control module 160 may arrange the extracted data of the undefined area 1013 at a predetermined position on the page 1002. For example, the control module 160 may arrange the extracted data of the undefined area 1013 in front of the undefined area 1023 located in the first half of the page 1002. In this regard, the control module 160 shifts the data of the undefined area 1023 and the data of the defined area 1024 in the message body area 1020 by a predetermined data area (the size of the undefined area 1013) among the contents of page 1002. ). Accordingly, the control module 160 may continuously arrange data of the undefined area 1013 and 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 user data of an amount to generate a multi-page from a message application, it can check whether multi-byte code type data is placed in a certain area of the data, such as a boundary area of a page divided by message standards. have. When data of a multi-byte code type is disposed in the boundary area, the control module 160 may perform the above-described operation to control not to be written as undefined data but to be written as fully defined data. Here, the control module 160 may control to place some data arranged in the boundary area of the pages in the first half of the next page.

In the above-described process, when the entire message content exceeds the 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 1003 page and writes data of a predetermined size to the 1003 page. Can be controlled. The control module 160 may control to transmit a corresponding message to the other electronic device 101 upon completion of a task of contiguously arranging data in an undefined area.

According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, the control module 160 may perform real-time processing when user data is input in connection with message creation. For example, the control module 160 writes data in the message body area in the order in which user data is input, and when it reaches a certain area in the second half of the message body area, some data of the multi-byte code type (data that is undefined as only a part is described) ), you can check if it is written in the area. 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, etc. on the generated page. Here, the control module 160 may perform a guide function for changing a code type before page generation, a warning message indicating that multipage generation is required, and the like.

11 is a diagram illustrating a message reception screen interface of an electronic device according to an embodiment.

In FIG. 11, a state 1101 indicates a message state in which an error occurs as data processing in an undefined area is not performed. For example, if undefined data processing is not normally performed, the message error area 1110 of 1101 may be output to the display module 140. For example, in the message error area 1110, a plurality of message errors may be output by a plurality of undefined data.

The 1103 state represents a state in which an error does not occur by processing data in an undefined area. As illustrated, message content 1120 without a message error may be output. As undefined data is processed as a single character, an emoji, an emoticon, or an icon, the message content 1120 in which the displayed character is less than that of the message error area 1110 may be output to the display module 140.
