The present invention relates to a message analysis method capable of tracking the contents of a message transmitted and received between related application programs or within an application program while simultaneously performing an input / output function of an operator using an operating terminal computer (PC) of an electronic switchboard.

In general, the application program of the electronic switching system has its own function, and is loaded on one processor or several processors to interact with other applications to handle the function of the seamless switching system. However, if you want to track the process of processing inside the application or the operation between applications, you can connect RS-232C to the input / output terminal (PC or VDT (Visual Display Terminal)) of the switching system and the processor loaded with the application program to track the operation. Once the environment is set up, the operator enters the corresponding command from the operator's terminal (the I / O terminal of the switching system) to run the application to track its operation. The operation process is displayed on the connected terminal.

This method is inconvenient to be familiar with the structure and shape of the system, the terminal to be connected to the processor loaded with the application program and the connection work accordingly, and to check a plurality of terminals to confirm one function. And the terminal that displays the operation of the application program can not be installed in the telephone company operating the exchange, it is difficult to grasp the actual internal process.

In addition, support tools related to development are limited in the electronic exchange system, and most of the support tools for developing the exchange system are provided off-line. However, there is a limit to error checking off-line, and functions such as application interaction cannot be processed off-line. Much effort is required to test these features.

Accordingly, the present invention provides a method for analyzing a message of an application program that enables a user to track a message for error verification between applications while operating the system with one operator terminal using multiple windows of a computer, which is an operator terminal installed in a switching system. The purpose is to provide.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a message analysis method of an input command using multiple windows of a computer (PC), the first step of checking whether the received data requires message analysis when the input command is received by the application program And, after performing the first step, if the message analysis is requested, check whether the debugging window of the computer is open. If not, open the debugging window and process the input command, and if it is open, perform the input command processing without opening another window. And a third step of performing a command processing after closing the debugging window if it is opened by checking whether the debugging window is opened after performing the first step and if the message analysis is not required. Characterized in that.

The present invention relates to a method for analyzing messages between applications using multiple windows of a PC which is an operator of a TDX-10 electronic switch. Is received, it checks whether the window for message analysis is opened or closed on the screen of the PC and outputs the relevant message on the screen of the PC only when it is opened. The opening and closing of this screen window is at the request of the operator.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a structural diagram of an electronic switching system, which includes a subscriber and trunk line interface, a time switch, various signaling devices, and a packet processor to perform most call processing functions and to perform its own operation and maintenance. Overall maintenance and operation of the system, test and measurement, statistics, control and management of auxiliary storage devices such as magnetic tape units (MUTs) or disk units (DKUs), and coordination with operators and other systems. It performs centralized functions such as number translation, route control, and connection of spatial switch among CCS (Central Control Subsystem) and call processing functions. It consists of an Interconnection Network Subsystem (INS) that connects the optical links between them. In addition to direct input / output functions, the operator registration function performs window functions, menu and form filling functions, and system operation recording functions that provide the operator's convenient environment. PC, VDT printer, etc. are used as device for matching between operator and system. The operator communicates with the system through this input / output device. To trace and analyze messages between applications or exit them, enter debugging commands to turn the debugging environment on or off.

2 is a data structure diagram for setting up or clearing a debugging environment.

This data structure is used to pass input commands to each application in operator matching.

The size of this structure is 212 bytes. PortJob is 2 bytes and represents the input / output device number to which the command is input and the execution sequence number of the processor to be executed. ECpid consists of 4 bytes and is used for debugging off-line. crn has an input command number that is two bytes. magic and debug occupy two bytes each, magic is used in operator matching, and debug is used for debugging in the application. In this patent, the debug field can be used to open or close the debugging window of a PC. This debugging window uses a separate window for each application.

3 is a flowchart of a method for processing message analysis in an application program of the present invention.

When a message (input command) is received by an application program (1), it is checked whether it requires the analysis of the received data message (2). If you require message analysis (3) check if the debugging window on your PC is open (4) if it is not open (5) and open the debugging window (6), if it is open (7), continue processing input commands without opening another window. do.

If the received data does not require message analysis (8), check whether the debugging window is opened (9), if it is opened (10), close the debugging window (11), and if not open (12), process the input command. If a debugging window is open while processing input commands, messages can be traced between and within each application, and data can be traced within the application (13).

In the present invention, only one debugging window is used in one application, but a plurality of windows may be used in the application.

Accordingly, the present invention carried out by the above processing procedure, the effect of providing a convenient environment to track and analyze the operation of the application program only with the computer as the operating terminal not only in the process of developing the system, but also during operation in the field phone office There is.
