本发明涉及通信技术领域，特别是指一种更新菜单信息的方法及装置。
【背景技术】
当前的操作系统均采用可视化操作界面，其包含的软件均采用可视化菜单作为图形操作界面以支持用户交互功能。对于具备时效性的软件，例如新闻终端、视频终端等而言，其文件菜单的数据是开机或软件启动时从网络服务器临时获取并存储到本地的；而之后文件菜单数据的更新均需要用户主动操作或者在下次切换至文件菜单时执行。这种不定期的更新方式带来了一系列问题，假若网络不畅或者因其他系统问题等，无法及时从网路服务器获取最新的文件菜单，那么终端可能会无法显示文件菜单，或显示的文件菜单与网络服务器端的文件菜单相比存在较大迟滞，造成数据的不一致，使用户无法正常操作；此外，终端的文件菜单在执行更新时，处于用户可视的状态下，其更新过程会占用一定的操作时间，造成用户操作的不流畅，影响用户体验。
【发明内容】
有鉴于此，本发明的目的在于提出一种更新菜单信息的方法及装置，用以实现在用户不可见的状态更新菜单的信息，提高操作的流畅度。

可选的，所述检测所述前台文件信息是否为最新的文件信息的步骤，包括：
获取前台文件信息的更新时间；
若所述前台文件信息的更新时间与后台文件信息的更新时间的差值大于第二时间间隔，则判定所述前台文件信息不是最新的文件信息。
可选的，方法还包括：
若检测到用户输入的第一控制指令，检测所述前台文件信息是否为最新的文件信息；若不是，则将所述后台文件信息发送至前台信息库，替换原有的前台文件信息。
可选的，所述文件菜单至少有两个，每个文件菜单设置与其关联的独立的前台信息库和后台信息库；当其中一个文件菜单在前台显示时，其余文件菜单被隐藏；所述从网络服务器获取到最新的文件信息后，替换所述后台文件信息的步骤后，还包括：

【具体实施方式】
为使本发明的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚明白，以下结合具体实施例，并参照附图，对本发明进一步详细说明。
第一实施例
本实施例提供一种更新菜单内容的方法。图1为本发明提供的一种更新菜单信息的方法的第一实施例的整体流程示意图，如图所示，本实施例中的方法，包括以下步骤：
S10，软件启动后，从后台信息库获取预存的后台文件信息，将所述后台文件信息发送至前台信息库，生成前台文件信息。
其中，后台信息库设置在软件退出后，或软件所在的设备关闭后仍然能够实现数据存储功能的永久性存储介质内。前台信息库对于存储介质则无要求，可以设置于永久性存储介质上，也可以设置于临时性存储介质上；当其设置于永久性存储介质上时，在软件退出前，应当清空其内所保存的前台文件信息。
软件启动后第一次从后台信息库获取的后台文件信息是在软件上次退出时保留的后台文件数据。
文件信息包括但不限于单个或多个文件的名称、简介、示例图片、链接。
S11，在该软件的文件菜单显示所述前台文件信息。
文件菜单是指在软件所在的设备的显示界面上显示的，用于向用户可视化展示文件信息的菜单。较佳的，文件菜单以列表形式显示文件信息。
S12，从网络服务器获取到最新的文件信息后，替换所述后台文件信息。
需要说明的是，上述前台文件信息和后台文件信息所包含的条目数是预设的，在进行更新时，会按照一定规则将网络服务器内最新的文件条目替换后台文件信息中陈旧的条目，这是实施方式是现有大多视频、新闻等主页在使用的，同样适用于本实施例。
S13，若检测到所述文件菜单被隐藏，通过检测前台文件信息的更新时间判断所述前台文件信息是否为最新的文件信息。
文件菜单被隐藏包含多种情况，例如文件菜单中的某一文件被执行，则该文件的显示界面被置于前台，此时文件菜单隐藏至后台；又或者文件菜单有两 个以上，在进行文件菜单的切换时，被切换至后台的文件菜单视为被隐藏。也即只要文件菜单由用户可视状态切换至用户不可视的状态，在本实施例中均视为文件菜单被隐藏。
S14，若不是，则将所述后台文件信息发送至所述前台信息库，替换原有的前台文件信息，并在所述文件菜单显示。
在步骤S13内执行检测后，若前台文件信息不是最新，则可以使用后台信息库内的文件信息更新前台信息库内的文件信息。无需临时由服务器获取文件信息，并且整个过程文件菜单处于用户不可视状态，文件菜单的更新引起的界面刷新等状态不会被用户所见，即不会影响用户体验。
在本实施例的一个变例中，还包括以下步骤：
S15，软件退出前，从网络服务器获取最新的文件信息，替换所述后台文件信息。
通过执行步骤S15，使得软件在下次启动时可以直接由后台信息库获取较新的文件信息，直接显示，无需临时从网络服务器获取文件信息。
本实施例及后续实施例适用于智能手机、智能电脑、个人电脑等具备显示单元和后台的智能设备；这些智能设备的显示单元应当能够显示文件菜单，智能设备还应当能够将智能菜单隐藏在后台。
图2为本发明提供的一种更新菜单信息的方法的第一实施例的详细流程示意图，如图所示，本实施例的详细步骤包括：
S20，软件启动后，从后台信息库获取预存的后台文件信息，将所述后台文件信息发送至前台信息库，生成前台文件信息。
S21，在该软件的文件菜单显示所述前台文件信息。
S22，从网络服务器获取到最新的文件信息后，替换所述后台文件信息。
S23，监控文件菜单的显示状态，是否为用户直接可视的状态，例如监控文件菜单在设备所处的显示图层是否是用户直接可视的图层。
S24，判断文件菜单是否被隐藏，也即文件菜单是否转变为用户不可见的状态。若是，则转至步骤S25，若否，则转至步骤S22。
S25，检测前台文件信息的时效。也即获取前台文件信息的更新时间，以便后续步骤执行判断。
S26，判定前台文件信息是否为最新的文件信息。若是，则转至步骤S22，若否，则转至步骤S27。
S27，将所述后台文件信息发送至所述前台信息库，替换原有的前台文件信 息，并在所述文件菜单显示。
上面结合整体流程图和详细流程图介绍了第一实施例的方法，下面结合使用状态示意图，通过一个例子对上述方法进行进一步解释。
图3a-图3e分别为本例的五种使用状态，详细如下：
a)第一使用状态，此时软件刚刚启动，其前台信息库2在上次退出时被清空，因此文件菜单1并没有任何内容显示。此时将后台信息库3预存的后台文件信息(此例中，后台文件信息包含文件信息A和文件信息B)发送至前台信息库。
b)第二使用状态，后台信息库3内的文件信息已将发送至前台信息库2，并在文件菜单1内显示。此时后台信息库3开始尝试从网络服务器4获取最新的文件信息。假设此时网络服务器4内的文件信息为文件信息C和文件信息D。
c)第三使用状态，后台信息库3接收网络服务器4发送的文件信息，并以其替换自身存储的后台文件信息，此时后台信息库3内的后台文件信息被替换为文件信息C和文件信息D。但是此时文件菜单1并没有被隐藏，故暂不会将后台文件信息发送至前台信息库。
d)第四使用状态，此时用户选取了文件菜单1中的文件信息A，并执行文件信息A对应的文件，文件菜单1被文件A的显示界面替换，文件菜单1隐藏。此时前台信息库2判定前台文件信息并不是最新的文件信息，因此从后台信息库3获取后台文件信息，替换前台文件信息。
e)第五使用状态，用户关闭文件A，文件菜单1重新显示，此时文件菜单1中显示的内容，即前台信息库2内的内容已经更新为文件信息C和文件信息D，从而完成了文件菜单1的后台更新。
本实施例中给出了一种更新文件菜单的方法，通过在后台信息库存储最新的文件信息，并在文件菜单被隐藏时，将后台存储的最新的文件信息更新至前台信息库，从而将文件菜单内容的更新过程隐藏，用户在使用时感知不到菜单的刷新过程，在操作和视觉体验上均不存在等待过程，提高了操作流畅程度。
第二实施例
本实施例在第一实施例的基础上，进一步对如何用从网络服务器获取到的最新的文件信息替换后台文件信息做了详细说明。
图4为本发明提供的一种更新菜单信息的方法的第二实施例的详细流程示意图，如图所示，在本实施例中，所述文件信息包括文件被更新至当前信息库 的更新时间，上述步骤S12，从网络服务器获取到最新的文件信息后，替换所述后台文件信息，进一步包括：
S40，获取后台文件信息的更新时间。
S41，判断所述后台文件信息的更新时间与当前系统时间的差值是否大于第一时间间隔；若是，则转至步骤S42，若否，则转至步骤S40。
需要说明的是，为了保证系统稳定，在执行完毕步骤S41并判断为否后，应当间隔一定时间再转至步骤S40。
S42，向网络服务器发送文件获取请求，接收返回的网络服务器内的文件信息。
S43，用网络服务器返回的文件信息替换所述后台文件信息。
需要说明的是，本发明实施例中所有使用“第一”和“第二”的表述均是为了区分两个相同名称非相同的实体或者非相同的参量，可见“第一”“第二”仅为了表述的方便，不应理解为对本发明实施例的限定，后续实施例对此不再一一说明。
在本实施例中，以后台文件信息的更新时间与系统时间的差值(由于系统时间必然大于或等于后台文件信息的更新时间，因此以系统时间减去后台文件信息的更新时间的数值，或二者任意作为被减数或减数的到的数值的绝对值作为上述差值，是一种较为合理的、便于比较的方案)是否大于第一时间间隔作为判定方式，来判断是否向服务器请求更新文件信息，来检测并获取最新的文件信息。其中第一时间间隔可以根据系统负载、用户调研、实验等多种方式确定，其范围5s-10min都是较为合理的；第一时间间隔不宜较长，否则会影响更新速度，使文件信息失去时效性，第一时间间隔也不易较短，否则会导致终端和网络服务器之间的频繁通信，影响终端和网络服务器的性能，占用大量不必要的资源。在较佳的实施方式中，第一时间间隔设定为5min。
在文件信息中包括文件被更新至当前信息库的更新时间，而这样更新时间是依据其最后被更新至的信息库的系统时间决定的，例如文件信息被获取至网络服务器时，应按照网络服务器的时间记录其更新时间；在其被发送至后台信息库时，则应当按照后台信息库的时间，即系统时间记录其更新时间。
在第一实施例的基础上，本实施例进一步解释说明了如何用从网络服务器获取到的最新的文件信息替换后台文件信息。但是对于一些意外情况，例如软件所在的本地终端与网络服务器之间的时间偏差较大，本实施例则无法完善处理，可能会出现一些意料之外的问题，因此引出下面的实施例。
第三实施例
为了解决第二实施例中可能出现的问题，本实施例进一步优化了从网络服务器获取到最新的文件信息替换后台文件信息的方法。
图5为本发明提供的一种更新菜单信息的方法的第三实施例的详细流程示意图，如图所示，步骤S42，向网络服务器发送文件获取请求，接收返回的网络服务器内的文件信息，进一步包括：
S50，向网络服务器发送尝试获取请求，接收返回的网络服务器内的文件信息的更新时间。
S51，判断网络服务器内的文件信息的更新时间与后台文件信息的更新时间的差值是否大于第一时间间隔。若是，则转至步骤S52，若否，则转至上一实施例中的步骤S40。同样要注意，转至步骤S40前应当适当加以延时。
S52，向网络服务器发送确认获取请求，接收返回的网络服务器内的文件信息。
本实施例在上一实施例的基础上，通过进一步验证服务器内的文件信息的更新时间与后台文件信息的更新时间的差值是否仍然大于第一时间间隔，避免了因本地时间和网络服务器时间的不同步可能引起的问题。
第四实施例
第二实施例和第三实施例给出了判定后台文件信息是否过期，并在其过期时进行更新的方法。在本实施例中，进一步给出判定前台文件信息是否过期，并在过期后进行更新的方法。
图6为本发明提供的一种更新菜单信息的方法的第四实施例的详细流程示意图；，如图所示，在本实施例中，步骤S13，检测所述前台文件信息是否为最新的文件信息，进一步包括：
S60，获取前台文件信息的更新时间。
S61，判断前台文件信息的更新时间与后台文件信息的更新时间的差值是否大于第二时间间隔。若是，则转至步骤S62，若否，则转至步骤S60。同样要注意，转至步骤S60前应当适当加以延时。
S62，判定所述前台文件信息不是最新的文件信息。
本实施例通过比较前台文件信息和后台文件信息更新时间的差值是否大于第二时间间隔，判断前台文件信息是否为最新的文件信息。这里第二时间间隔 可以根据系统负载、用户调研、实验等多种方式确定，其范围5s-10min都是较为合理的，这一点与上述实施例中的第一时间间隔相似；但是为了减少无效操作，提高执行效率，应当令第二时间间隔的数值不小于第一时间间隔，更佳的是设置为第一时间间隔的整数倍。这样在一次第二时间间隔内，会执行一次或多次后台文件信息的更新过程，从而尽可能保证在对前台文件信息进行更新时，后台文件信息中存在最新的文件信息。
第五实施例
图7为本发明提供的一种更新菜单信息的方法的第五实施例的详细流程示意图，如图所示，在本实施例中，步骤S12，所述从网络服务器获取到最新的文件信息后，替换所述后台文件信息的步骤后，还包括：
S70，监测用户输入的控制指令。
S71，判断所述控制指令是否为第一控制指令。若是，转至步骤S72，若否，转至步骤S70。
S72，判断所述前台文件信息是否为最新的文件信息。若是，转至步骤S70，若否，转至步骤S73。
S73，将所述后台文件信息发送至前台信息库，替换原有的前台文件信息。
所述第一控制指令可以是预设的任何控制指令。本实施例给出了一种在接收到用户特定控制命令后主动更新前台文件信息的方法。
第六实施例
在一些软件中，文件菜单有至少两个，用户在操作时需要在这些菜单中执行切换操作，且同一时间仅有一个菜单处于用户可视的状态，其他菜单则暂时隐藏在后台。针对这一情况，本实施例给出了一种在多菜单环境下更新菜单信息的方法。
图8为本发明提供的一种更新菜单信息的方法的第六实施例的详细流程示意图，如图所示，在本实施例中，所述文件菜单至少有两个，每个文件菜单设置与其关联的独立的前台信息库和后台信息库；当其中一个文件菜单在前台显示时，其余文件菜单暂存于后台。步骤S12，网络服务器获取到最新的文件信息后，替换所述后台文件信息后，还包括：
S80，检测文件菜单的切换操作。
S81，判断是否有文件菜单被切换至后台。若是，转至步骤S82，若否，转 至步骤S80。
S82，判断被切换至后台的文件菜单的前台文件信息是否为最新的文件信息。若是，转至步骤S80，若否，转至步骤S83。
S83，将被切换至后台的文件菜单的后台文件信息发送至前台信息库，替换原有的前台文件信息。
在之前的实施例中文件菜单“被隐藏”包含本实施例中“被切换至后台”的情况；本实施例可以视为步骤S13、S14的一个具体化的应用场景。
本实施在检测到用户切换文件菜单时，进一步判断被切换至后台(即用户暂时不可见)的文件菜单的前台文件信息是否为最新的文件信息，若不是则使用该文件菜单的后台文件信息替换、更新其前台文件信息。由于此文件菜单已经被切换至后台，因此更新过程不可见，不会产生操作延迟，进一步提高了操作流畅度。
图9为本发明提供的一种更新菜单信息的方法的第六实施例的变例的详细流程示意图，如图所示，在本实施例的一可选变例中，步骤S14，将所述后台文件信息发送至前台信息库，替换原有的前台文件信息，并在文件菜单显示后，还包括：
S90，检测全部文件菜单的前台文件信息更新情况。
S91，判断是否有任一文件菜单的前台文件信息被其后台文件信息替换。若是，转至步骤S92，若否，转至步骤S90。
S92，判断其他文件菜单的前台文件信息是否为最新的文件信息。若否，转至步骤S93，若是，转至步骤S90。
S93，使用其他文件菜单的后台文件信息更新其前台文件信息。
本变例同样适用于多文件菜单的情况，当检测到任一文件菜单被更新后，即同步检测其他文件菜单的前台文件信息是否为最新，若不是则同样对其他文件菜单的文件信息执行更新。为了提高操作流畅程度，步骤S92还可以进一步替换为以下步骤：
S94，判断除当前正在显示的文件菜单外其他文件菜单的前台文件信息是否为最新的文件信息。若否，转至步骤S93，若是，转至步骤S90。
步骤S94避免了对当前用户可见的文件菜单的更新。
除上述方法外，本发明还提供了一种使用上述方法更新菜单信息的装置10。
