[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of processing program structure information and an apparatus therefor, and more particularly, to a method for processing program structure information which is effective when hierarchically leveling program structure information having a hierarchical relationship using an online screen. The present invention relates to a processing method and a method therefor.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Hitherto, the hierarchical structure of program configuration information is based on the information of the calling module described in each module design document which constitutes the load module, or the coupling relation is manually drawn or specified. Kaisho 63-273
As described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 131, the calling module described in the actual source program is analyzed and hierarchized, and the existing module and the non-existing constituent element, that is, the component for the module group. The idea of including (logical name) etc. was lacking.

[0003]

In the above prior art, even if an existing source program is analyzed and a program structure diagram is created, the group organization intended by the user cannot be established, or the drawing is manually made. However, the addition, update, and deletion of the constituent elements are inputs on a layer-by-layer basis, and there is a problem that it takes time. The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems in the conventional technique and extract a module constituting a program from a library in which the module group is stored. However, it is another object of the present invention to provide a method and apparatus for processing program configuration information, which makes it possible to group these module groups by the component name intended by the user on the online screen.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The above object of the present invention is a method of processing program configuration information for assigning a hierarchical level to program configuration information having a hierarchical relationship, in which a module group constituting the program is stored. A method for processing program configuration information, characterized in that it has a step of searching the existing library and a step of adding a hierarchical level to each searched module name, and an operator inputs an instruction and the apparatus side. Input / output unit for displaying information to the operator from the library, a library in which modules that make up a program are stored, a means for searching the modules in the library, and a hierarchical level added to each searched module Means for editing, and a means for editing the added hierarchy level, so that the operator can view the hierarchy on the online screen of the input / output unit. Is achieved by the processor of a program configuration information, characterized in that it is configured as to perform editing of the bell.

[0005]

In the method of processing program configuration information according to the present invention, a library storing modules that compose a program to be edited is searched, and a hierarchical level is automatically added to each searched module name. Since it is added, in the case of manual input based on a form, the input for each layer is eliminated. Also,
Since the editing is performed on the online screen, the hierarchization time is shortened and the operation is facilitated.

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block configuration diagram of a program configuration information editing system according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, 100 is an input / output device including a keyboard and a display device, 101 is a storage library in which a plurality of source programs to be edited are stored in module units, 102 is a processing device, and 103 is an edited program. Shows a storage device for registering. The above-described processing device 102 checks the existence of the storage library name input from the input / output device 100, and displays a message on the input / output device 100 when an error occurs.
04, the storage library search unit 105 that searches the directory information of the storage library 101 and extracts the module name, and the lowest hierarchy level number for the extracted module name is incremented from 01 to Hierarchical level number addition unit 106 for adding count values
And a storage device 1 having a hierarchy name 108 and a hierarchy level 109
The storage device access unit 107 performs registration, search, update, and deletion with respect to 03, and the hierarchy level editing unit 300 having a function of editing the level number of the hierarchy name.

FIG. 2 is an example of setting the hierarchy name 108 and hierarchy level number 109 stored in the storage device 103. The layer name 108 is a module name or a component name for layering for each level number. The hierarchy level number 109 is a level number of each module name or component name. For example, if there is a hierarchy from level 1 to level 5, level 1 is the highest level and level 5
Is the lowest. Each level has a level number from (01) to (99), and level numbers (00) and () mean that there is no hierarchy. An outline of the flow of processing in FIG. 1 will be described. When the operator inputs the program name and the source library name in which the program is stored from the input / output device 100, the input / output control unit 104 checks the input contents, and the source having the input source library name is checked. Library is stored in the library search unit 1
Search with 05. Only the module name of the module group in the searched source library is extracted, and the hierarchy level number adding unit 106 sequentially adds the level numbers from the lowest level of the hierarchy level number shown in FIG. Then, it is registered in the storage device 103.

FIG. 3 is a display example of the input / output device 100 when the hierarchical level editing unit 300 performs the hierarchical level editing. The layer name 400 is a module name because level numbers from level 1 to level 5 are added,
Since the level number 401 is not added with the level number up to the level 5, it is the component name for the subsequent modules. The operation of the hierarchical level editing process under the system configuration shown in FIG. 1 will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3 and FIGS. 4 and 5 are flowcharts of the hierarchy level editing operation. The storage device 103 stores the hierarchy information registered in the above-described processing. 4 and 5, the storage device access processing (step 500) searches the storage device 103 for hierarchical information to be edited. Data save processing (Step 50
1) is the display example of FIG. 3, and when the portion where the edit classification is not input is corrected, the information is saved in order to return to the state before the correction.

Screen editing area storage processing (step 502)
Stores the hierarchical information retrieved in the storage device access processing in step 500 described above in the area for screen editing. In addition, the display process (step 503) uses the data input / output device 1
00 screen. If the end judgment (step 504) does not end, read the hierarchical information on the screen (step
505), and the above-mentioned screen editing area storage processing (step
Processing is performed one layer at a time until the end of the editing area stored in 502) (step 506). For example, in FIG. 3, level 1
When performing the grouping of (01) (402 in the figure), if the content indicating the addition (I) is input to the edit category, the step 5
In the edit classification determination process of 07, it is determined whether the layer information is added, updated, or deleted, and in the case of addition, the input layer information is the target data determination process (step 508).
Is determined as a component. For components,
The level number change flag set in the processing device 102 is turned on (step 509), and the component name is added (step 510). Each componentized module name is determined as a module by the target data determination process, and a component of the same hierarchical level appears,
The judgment is repeated (step 513).

During the repetition of the above processing, the level number of the added component is changed (step 51).
Four). On the other hand, if the added layer name is a module, the target data is added to the input position (step 511), and since the level number change flag is OFF, the process returns to the reading of the next layer information (step 512). . Next, when a component of the same hierarchy level appears, the level number change flag is turned off and the next hierarchy information is read from the editing area. At the end, the edited contents are stored in the storage device 103
Judges whether to save (save) and end, or to end without storing
(Step 517). When the data is stored (saved), it is updated and the process ends (step 518). According to the above-described embodiment, the user can register the constituent members as hierarchical information only by designating the storage library name of the program.
You can save the trouble of entering each layer. Moreover, since the user-intended component names can be immediately grouped, the meaning of hierarchical relationships can be expanded. Furthermore, since each registered component can be immediately grouped by the user-oriented component name on the online screen, the meaning of the hierarchical relationship can be expanded, and the hierarchical time can be shortened.

[0011]

As described above in detail, according to the present invention, the modules that make up the program are extracted from the library in which the modules are stored, and these modules are displayed on the online screen. This has the remarkable effect of realizing a method and apparatus for processing program configuration information that enables grouping by the component name intended by the user.
