Window Parameter Configuration Method and System, Computer-readable Media
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to field of computer technology, in
particular to a
kind of window parameter configuration method, a kind of window parameter
configuration
system, and computer-readable media.
Background
[0002] The existing partial visualization software, before using,
requires on-site
installation and configuration parameter by the staff for the user; or the
software can be used
normally after self-installation and configuration parameter by the user under
the guidance of
the staff. Examples include ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software,
software for making
out an invoice, etc.
[0003] However, due to the huge number of software users, if staff are
required to manually
install and configure parameters of the software during the initial
installation, there will be a
huge labor cost. If the staff instructs the user to install and configure
parameters of the software
on his/her own, the software may not be normally used due to possible
configuration errors of
parameters, the deletion of configuration files by other softwares or manual
deletion during
use. In addition, in the later use of the software, any updates or replacement
of the software
will need another door-to-door service from the staff to the user. If users
are instructed to update
or replace the software by themselves, the problem that the software cannot be
used normally
due to improper configuration of user parameters or incorrect configuration
files still exists.
[0004] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the
Background section above
is only for enhancing the understanding of the innovation's background, and
thus it can include
the information that does not constitute the existing technology known to
ordinary technical =
personnel in this field.

Detailed Description
[0052] Exemplary embodiments will now be described more fully, with
reference to the
accompanying drawings. However, the exemplary embodiments can be embodied in a
variety
of forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments set
forth herein.
Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be
thorough and complete
and will fully transmit the concepts of the exemplary embodiments to technical
personnel in
this field. The drawings are only schematic illustrations of the present
disclosure and are not
necessarily to scale. The reference numbers in the drawings denote the same or
similar parts,
so each number will only be described once.
[0053] Furthermore, the described features, structures,.or
characteristics can be combined
in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments. In the following
descriptions, numerous
specific details are set forth to provide a better understanding of the
embodiments of the present
disclosure. However, technical personnel in this field shall note that the
technical solution of
the present disclosure may be implemented without one or more of the specific
details, or other
methods, components, apparatuses, and steps may be employed. In other
instances, well-known
structures, methods, apparatuses, implementations, or operations are not shown
or described in
detail to avoid obscuring various aspects of the present disclosure.
[0054] Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a window parameter configuration method
based on an
exemplary embodiment.
[0055] As shown in Fig. 1, the window parameter remote configuration
method may
include the following steps.
[0056] Step S101: acquiring attribute data of the to-be-configured window
of the terminal
at the terminal.
100571 In an exemplary embodiment, for the user terminal, the above to-be-
configured
window may be the window interfaces corresponding to any one of the
visualization softwares
on the user terminal, such as ERP software, software for making out an
invoice, or other
management software, tools and other visualization softwares. The user
terminal described
above may be a smart terminal device such as a computer, a smart tablet, or a
mobile phone.
[0058] The user terminal may, in response to trigger information, extract
the attribute data
CA 3056859 2019-09-26
of the to-be-configured window based on the trigger information. Specifically,
the step S101
may comprise:
[0059] Step S101-1, determine whether there is trigger information;
[0060] Step S101-2, extract the attribute data of the to-be-configured
window when it is
determined that trigger information exists.
[0061] In an exemplary, embodiment, for the user terminal, the attribute
data of the to-be-
configured window may be first extracted based on the trigger information. The
trigger
information mentioned above may be a trigger operation for the target software
generated by
the user on the interaction interface of the terminal or a preset operational
order sent by the
server for collecting the attribute parameters of the target software window.
The present
disclosure does not specifically limit the specific form of the trigger
information.
[0062] In addition, the attribute data described above may include a
window display
position, a window size, a transparency level, a display layer, a number of
colors, a brightness
level, or a contrast level, and any one or any number of parameters in a
window type, style,
name, title, state. Moreover, the attribute data can be saved in a certain
format such as XML.
[0063] Further, in other exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure,
tag information
may also be added to the attribute data described above to label the attribute
data. For example,
said label information may include information of the interface to be
configured corresponding
to the attribute information, such as a name, a number, or a version of the
program or software.
Alternatively, said label information may further include information of the
terminal device
and information of an object to which the attribute information is to be
received, such as
identification information of the server. The present disclosure does not
specifically limit the
specific content of the label information mentioned above.
[0064] By configuring label data for attribute information, it is
convenient for the server to
find and extract the attribute information, and it is easy to mark subsequent
files.
[0065] Step S102: transmitting the attribute data to a server.
[0066] In an exemplary embodiment, referring to Fig. 2, the user terminal
may save the
attribute data described above in a preset cloud server. Specifically, the
foregoing step S102
may comprise the following:
[0067] At the terminal, saving the attribute data to a preset cloud
storage to enable the
server to extract the attribute data from the preset cloud storage.
[0068] For the server, the attribute data of the to-be-configured window
may be extracted
from the preset cloud storage based on the preset first identifier information
included in the
attribute data. By storing the attribute data in cloud storage, it is
convenient to store and find
6
CA 3056859 2019-09-26
the attribute data files and facilitate the server to actively extract the
attribute data files.
[0069] Step S103: at the server, generating an analog configuration
interface based on the
attribute data and generating a configuration file based on the parameter
configured in the
analog configuration interface.
[0070] In an exemplary embodiment, for the server, the attribute data
corresponding to the
=
to-be-configured window of the terminal may be extracted from the preset cloud
storage based
On the first identifier information of the attribute data. For example, if the
to-be-configured
window of the user terminal is an interface of the ERP software, the server
can, after obtaining
the attribute data of the ERP interface, use the attribute data to simulate
the interface style of
the user terminal, and generate an analog ERP interface.
[0071] Specifically, a visualization software may include multiple
processes running in the
background at the same time upon application, and each application process has
a
corresponding window interface. In addition, each process may occupy different
sizes of
memory and may have different identification information or description
information.
Therefore, the to-be-configured window mentioned above may include a window
interface
corresponding to at least one application process, and the attribute data
described above may
include window attribute data corresponding to at least one process.
[0072] Specifically, the foregoing step S103 may comprise the following:
[0073] Step S103-1: extracting window attribute data corresponding to the
target process
based on the process identifier;
[0074] Step S103-2: generating an analog configuration interface based on
the window
attribute data of the target process.
[0075] In an exemplary embodiment, the window attribute data
corresponding to the target
process in the multiple processes corresponding to the to-be-configured window
may be
extracted based on the process identifier; in addition, the local
configuration tool can be used
to read the attribute data file of the target process, create the analog
window control based on
the attribute data, and use the tool, so as to display the analog
configuration interface
corresponding to the interface to be configured on the server.
[0076] After the analog configuration interface is generated, the window
parameters can
be modified and updated on the analog configuration interface, and a new
configuration file
will be generated based on the updated parameters.
[0077] Step S104: generating the parameter into a configuration file and
transmitting it to
the terminal.
[0078] In an exemplary embodiment, after the configuration file is
generated based on the
7
CA 3056859 2019-09-26
analog configuration interface, the server may further add label information
to said
configuration file, where the label information may include terminal
information
corresponding to the configuration file and specific window information, so
that the
configuration file can be accurately returned to the corresponding user
terminal. The label
information of the configuration file can also be configured based on the
label information of
the attribute data.
[0079] Specifically, the foregoing step S104 may comprise the following:
[0080] Step S104-1: storing the configuration file in a preset cloud
storage and pushing the
configuration file to the terminal based on the second identifier information;
or
[0081] Step S104-2: transmitting the first instruction information to the
terminal based on
the second identifier information, so that said terminal can acquire the
configuration file by the
preset cloud storage.
[0082] In an exemplary embodiment, the server may save the configuration
file on the
preset cloud storage after generating the configuration file. The second
identifier information
of the user terminal corresponding to the to-be-configured window can be added
to the
configuration file, so that the user terminal can obtain the configuration
file in the cloud storage
based on the second identifier information. For example, said second
identifier information
may also include the same identification data as the first identifier
information, such as the ID
of the user terminal, IP, or other information capable of identifying the
terminal.
[0083] Specifically, after the configuration file is stored in the cloud
storage, the
configuration may be pushed to the corresponding user terminal based on the
identifier
information, so that the user terminal can update the attribute parameter of
the to-be-configured
window based on the received configuration file.
[0084] In addition, after the configuration file is stored in the cloud
storage, the first
instruction information may be sent to the corresponding user terminal based
on the identifier
information, so that the user terminal can actively extract the configuration
file from the cloud
storage based on the first instruction information and update the attribute
parameter of the to-
be-configured window based on the configuration file.
[0085] Furthermore, in other exemplary embodiments of the present
disclosure, the
configuration file may be pushed to a plurality of user terminals that require
the same
configuration file based on the label information. Alternatively, the
configuration file may be
directly pushed to the corresponding terminal based on the label information.
[0086] Step S105: at the terminal, configuring the to-be-configured
window based on the
configuration file.
8
CA 3056859 2019-09-26
[0087] In an exemplary embodiment, after the user terminal obtains the
returned
configuration file from the cloud storage through the second identifier
information, the
configuration file may be used to update and replace the window attribute
parameter with the
to-be-configured window. In turn, the window attribute data of the target
software can be
remotely updated.
[0088] Based on the foregoing, in an exemplary embodiment, referring to
Fig. 3, the
foregoing method may further include:
[0089] Step S201: at the server, if the configuration update data of the
to-be-configured
window exists, transmitting the second instruction information to the terminal
corresponding
to the to-be-configured window;
[0090] Step S202: at the terminal, acquiring the configuration update
data from the preset
cloud storage based on the second instruction information.
[0091] For the server, if the operation and maintenance personnel
actively generate new
window configuration update data for the window of a visualization software,
the configuration
update data can be generated and stored in the cloud storage. At the same
time, the second
instruction information may be actively transmitted to the multiple user
terminals
corresponding to the to-be-configured window, so that each user terminal can
extract the
configuration update file from the cloud storage, and update the attribute
parameter of the to-
be-configured window based on the configuration update file.
[0092] The window parameter configuration method provided by the
embodiment of the
present disclosure can be applied to remote configurations of the
visualization software. At the
user terminal, it can be installed on the user terminal in the form of a plug-
in, thereby facilitating
the extraction and saving of attribute data of the target software to-be-
configured window and
pulling the configuration file from the cloud storage and configuring the to-
be-configured window
according to the configuration file. On the server, the current attribute data
of the to-be-configured
window can be obtained from the cloud storage to generate an analog interface,
then the window
parameters can be configured in the analog interface, and the configuration
file can be generated
and uploaded to the cloud storage to complete the remote configuration of the
target software
window of the user terminal. The method provided by the embodiments of the
present disclosure
can effectively simulate the styles and interface layouts of various
visualization softwares and
has high versatility. At the same time, when the to-be-configured window needs
to be configured
or modified, it only needs to pull out relevant window attribute data of the
target terminal and
reconfigure it after simulation, and no personnel need to do it in person. It
has high flexibility
and can save human resources.
