所述模块自身信息描述方法至少包括: 输出自身 ID或标识串, 输出自 身每个功能项的功能 ID和文字描述, 和 /或输出自身每个功能项的功能 ID 和图标等, 若其它模块调用本模块自身信息描述方法, 例如: 如果宿主程 序调用插件自身信息描述方法、 或如果插件调用宿主程序自身信息描述方 法, 则插件或宿主程序可输出自身的相应信息。
步骤 102: 宿主程序启动后, 根据共用协议创建宿主接口实体; 这里, 宿主程序中包含有创建宿主接口实体的输出函数, 该输出函数 中带有共用协议类型的输入参数, 返回创建的宿主接口实体。
步骤 103: 宿主程序加载插件过程中, 插件以所设置的共用协议为依据 生成插件接口实体, 宿主程序保存所生成的插件接口实体, 插件保存宿主 程序创建的宿主接口实体;
这里, 宿主程序在加载插件的过程中, 将插件信息, 如插件 ID、 插件 功能 ID , 插件对应的数据参数等存入插件库中。
宿主程序以宿主接口实体为参数调用插件的实体创建函数, 并将实体 创建函数返回的插件接口实体存储在插件库中, 相应的, 插件也保存宿主 程序已创建的宿主接口实体。 所述插件的实体创建函数与宿主程序中创建 宿主接口实体创建函数类似。
其中, 所述加载插件的过程为现有技术, 这里不再详述; 所述插件库 位于宿主程序中, 用于存储已加载插件信息, 包括: 插件接口实体、 插件 ID、 插件功能 ID等。

具体为: 待调用插件收到宿主程序所发的调用请求后, 根据调用请求 中携带的插件功能 ID调用自身存储的与插件功能 ID对应的功能函数。
步骤 D2: 待调用插件运行功能函数, 执行相应被调用的功能。
可见, 本发明插件间的相互调用是以宿主程序为媒介进行的, 即: 插 件将所需目标插件的相关信息通知宿主程序, 之后宿主程序调用相应目标 插件的功能。
按上述插件间相互调用的方案, 也可实现插件对宿主程序的调用, 过 程可为: 插件向宿主程序发送调用请求调用宿主程序中的功能, 宿主程序 通过已存储的被调用模块的标识找到被调用模块, 再调用被调用模块的功 能函数; 被调用模块运行功能函数, 执行相应的被调用功能, 其中, 所述 被调用模块的标识在宿主程序的编写过程中已存储。 所述插件调用宿主程 序与插件间的相互调用的不同点在于宿主中的被调用模块为宿主程序的一 部分, 而不是加载的外部插件。
图 2为本发明宿主程序和插件及插件间进行交互的装置结构示意图, 如图 2所示, 该装置包括: 设置模块、 接口实体创建存储模块和运行模块; 其中,
所述设置模块, 用于设置宿主程序和插件间进行交互的共用协议; 所述接口实体创建存储模块, 用于以设置模块设置的共用协议为依据 创建并保存宿主接口实体和插件接口实体;
所述运行模块, 用于通过接口实体创建存储模块所存储的宿主接口实 体完成与宿主程序的交互操作; 或用于通过接口实体创建存储模块所存储 的插件接口实体完成与插件的交互操作。
所述接口实体创建存储模块进一步包括: 宿主接口实体创建存储模块 和插件接口实体创建存储模块; 其中,
所述宿主接口实体创建存储模块, 用于在宿主程序启动后, 根据共用 协议创建宿主接口实体并传给插件接口实体创建存储模块, 并保存插件接 口实体创建存储模块生成的插件接口实体;
所述插件接口实体创建存储模块, 用于以共用协议为依据创建插件接 口实体并传给宿主接口实体创建存储模块, 并保存宿主接口实体创建存储 模块创建的宿主接口实体。
所述运行模块进一步包括: 宿主程序运行模块和插件运行模块; 其中, 所述宿主程序运行模块, 用于通过所保存的插件接口实体完成与插件 的交互操作;
所述插件运行模块, 用于通过所保存的宿主接口实体完成与宿主程序 的交互操作。
所述宿主程序运行模块通过所保存的插件接口实体调用插件时, 所述 宿主程序运行模块进一步用于调用插件自身信息描述方法, 接收插件运行 模块输出的功能图标、 或功能文字描述, 并将功能图标加在宿主程序的工 具条上、 或将功能文字描述生成菜单项加入菜单中;
相应的, 所述插件运行模块, 进一步用于输出的功能图标、 或功能文 字描述, 并传输给宿主程序运行模块。
以上所述, 仅为本发明的较佳实施例而已, 并非用于限定本发明的保 护范围, 凡在本发明的精神和原则之内所作的任何修改、 等同替换和改进 等, 均应包含在本发明的保护范围之内。
