DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus, and more particularly to a technique for correcting input command information.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Human Machine Interface (HM)
I) In a computer system in which a character is input by command input or the like, if the number of digits of the input information is large, the probability of occurrence of an input error increases, and if an error occurs, all the input information must be input again. Is complicated.

In a computer system which uses the same area as an input / output screen,
When the information is input, the input information disappears from the screen, and the processing result appears on the same screen.If there is an error in the input information and the information is not correctly processed, the input device is again used. Input information must be entered from the first digit.

[0004] In this case, when the number of digits of the input information is large, the input operation and the correction operation impose a heavy burden on the terminal operator.

[0005]

As described above, in the conventional computer apparatus, if the input / output screen uses the same area, if there is an error in the input information such as a command and the processing is not performed correctly, the input command is output from the screen. Therefore, there is a problem that the input work load increases because all of the information has to be input again.

[0006] For example, in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 4-12038, when an error is found in the fixed data in the ROM, the RO
In addition to the need to exchange M, etc., when supplying a correct program / data from an external storage medium, for example, even if there is a 1-byte error in a 10,000-byte program, the entire 10,000-byte program must be supplied. In order to solve the problem of having to replace the entire system and its parts, only one program / data correction is required using the built-in backup RAM, and the subsequent normal operation of the system can be performed quickly. As a device configuration that can be executed by the
OM or other fixed storage means, an error check means for checking an error of a program / data stored in the fixed storage means and its address in accordance with an instruction from the input means,
When an error part is detected by the error check means, an address management means for managing the address, a correction content storage means for storing a correction program / data, and a correction program / data relating to the error part are inputted from the input means. Correction data writing means for writing the correction program / data to an address area of the correction content storage means corresponding to the management address of the address management means;
While referring to the management address of the address management means, for the normal part of the program / data of the fixed storage means,
There has been proposed a fixed program / data correction apparatus including a reading unit for reading a correction program / data for an error portion from a fixed storage unit from a correction content storage unit. This conventional fixed program / data correction device is for correcting data / programs in a ROM, and cannot be applied to the function for correcting errors in information input from the input means described above.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and has as its object to re-input all information by partially correcting the information when an error is detected by processing the information. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method and an apparatus which can be modified without performing any operation, reduce the input work load and improve the operability.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the configuration of one embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, an information processing apparatus according to the present embodiment includes an input device 1 such as a keyboard, a data processing device 2 operated by program control, a storage device 3 for storing information, a display device and a printing device. Output device 4 such as device
And

The storage device 3 includes an error information storage unit 31 and
A master information storage unit 32.

The error information storage section 31 stores input information in which an error has been detected in the form of "record key + input information". The master information storage unit 32 stores a result of processing input information for which no error was detected.

The data processing device 2 includes an error information reading means 21, an error part correcting means 22, and a normal processing means 23.
And

The error information reading means 21 searches the error information stored in the error information storage unit 31 using the record key in the input character string provided from the input device 1 as a search key, and reads the error information into the system.

The error part correcting means 22 compares and corrects the correction sentence in the input character string given from the input device 1 with the error information read by the error information reading means 21 to create corrected information. .

The normal processing means 23 reprocesses the corrected information.

If an error is detected, the normal processing means 23 stores "record key + corrected information" in the error information storage unit 31 using the same record key.
The error information is updated in the format of
Outputs "record key + corrected information".

If no error is detected, the error information of the record key stored in the error information storage unit 31 is deleted and, at the same time, the information of the processing result is stored in the master information storage unit 32. Further, a message indicating that the processing has been performed normally is output to the output device 4.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart for explaining the operation of one embodiment of the present invention. Next, the operation of the present embodiment will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. The input character string given from the input device 1 is
1 is supplied.

The error information reading means 21 reads error information from the error information storage unit 31 using a record key included in the input character string as a search key (steps A1 and A2 in FIG. 4).

Here, if the error information cannot be read, the input character string is incorrect (input of an incorrect record key), and an input error message is output to the output device 4 (step A5 in FIG. 4). .

When the error information can be read, the information is supplied to the error portion correcting means 22.

The error part correcting means 22 compares the supplied error information with the error correction information in the input character string input from the input device 1 and checks whether the error part can be corrected (FIG. 4). Step A3).

If the error cannot be corrected, the input character string is incorrect (incorrect error correction information is input), and an input error message is output to the output device 4 (step A5 in FIG. 4).

If the error can be corrected,
The information in which the error portion is corrected is created, and the normal processing unit 23
Supply information to

The normal processing means 23 processes the information in which the error portion has been corrected (step A6 in FIG. 4). If an error is detected here, "record key + corrected information" is output to the output device 4. The “record key + input information” output and stored in the error information storage unit 31
Is replaced with “record key + corrected information” (step A7 in FIG. 4).

If no error is detected, a message indicating that the processing has been normally performed is output to the output device 4,
The “record key + input information” stored in the error information storage unit 31 is deleted, and the result of normal processing is stored in the master information storage unit 32 (step A in FIG. 4).
8).

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described using a specific example.

For example, first, as a command information, "U @ PLN-TEST00" is transmitted to the computer system.
1-IS-B747 / HS / C-RJTT0200-
N0450F390 HME XAC LHT KCC
△ AAA △ MPE △ DGC-RJFF0200-TES
The case where “T>” is input will be described (Δ means blank).

In this information, if an error occurs because the three characters "AAA" do not match the input requirements of the system, the "record key + input information" is stored in the error information storage unit 31 of FIG. Error information is stored in the form of "full text".

For example, "0001 + U @ PLN-TES"
T001-IS-B747 / HS / C-RJTT02
00-N0450F390 HME XAC LHT
KCC AAA AAA MPE DGC-RJFF0200-
The error information is stored in the error information storage unit 31 in the format of “TEST>”.

Here, "0001" is a record key.

When an error is detected, the information stored in the error information storage unit 31 is output to a printer connected to the system terminal because it is necessary to notify the terminal operator.

Thus, after confirming the error location, the terminal operator sets the error location "AAA" to, for example, "OWE".
To fix. At this time, it is burdensome for the operator to input the information in full text. Actually, in the above example, there are 89 digits in the entire information text.

For this reason, if an input is made in the form of "record key + correction information of error part", the load on the operator is reduced.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the correction information is input as follows.

0001 KCC OWE MPE

When this input is made, the error information reading means 2
1 is based on the record key “0001” and stores the error information “U @ PLN-TEST” from the error information storage unit 31.
001-IS-B747 / HS / C-RJTT020
0-N0450F390 HME XAC LHT K
CC AAA AAA MPG DGC-RJFF0200-T
EST> ”can be read (step A in FIG. 4).
1, A2).

The error information and the correction information "KCC @ O
WE @ MPE "allows the error part correcting means 22 to
"AAA" between "KCC" and "MPE" is replaced by "OWE"
To create a new full text of corrected information (steps A3 and A4 in FIG. 4).

[U @ PLN-TEST001-IS-B]
747 / HS / C-RJTT0200-N0450F
390 HME XAC LHT KCC OWE M
PE @ DGC-RJFF0200-TEST>"

The full text of this information is processed by the normal processing means 23.
If the processing is performed again, the processing is correctly performed (step A6 in FIG. 4). In this re-processing, if an error is detected, the “record key + corrected information” is output to the output device 4 again, and the information on the record key stored in the error information storage unit 31 is further corrected. Is rewritten with the completed information (step A7 in FIG. 4).

If the processing is normally completed without detecting an error, a message indicating that the processing has been completed normally is output to the output device 4.
And deletes the record key information stored in the error information storage unit 31 and writes the processing result to the master information storage unit 32 (step A in FIG. 4).
8).

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the configuration of the second embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 5, the second embodiment of the present invention differs from the first embodiment in that the second embodiment does not include the error portion correcting means 22 and inputs information read by the error information reading means 21. It is configured to output to the device 1 (input field on the screen).

FIG. 6 is a flowchart for explaining the processing of the second embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 6, steps A5, A
The operations of A6, A7 and A8 are the same as those of the embodiment shown in FIG.

In FIG. 6, when the error information is retrieved using the record key and the error information can be read (steps A1 and A2), the read error information is transmitted to the input device 1
It is output to the message input area of (terminal screen) (step A3).

The terminal operator directly corrects the error portion of the error information output to the message input area (step A4), inputs the corrected information from the input device 1, and performs the normal processing by the normal processing means 23.

In this embodiment, for example, if the error information is "A
In the 1006 digit message “ΔA △ to A △ B △ A △ A △”, B in the 1001 digit is an error, 500th A
This is effective when it is necessary to correct this from B to A at one place.

With the partial correction function of the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, it is not possible to create a correction sentence for an error in which one illegal character is present among many consecutive identical characters. For example, even if "A @ A @ A" is created as a correction sentence, the partial correction function cannot determine which character string in the error information "A @ A @ A" points to. On the other hand, in the second embodiment of the present invention, since the error location is directly corrected from the error information output to the message input area, the above-mentioned type of error can be corrected.

[0055]

As described above, according to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained.

The first effect of the present invention is that, when an error is detected by processing information, the information is stored in the error information storage unit without discarding, and the stored information is partially corrected. This means that information can be reused.

The second effect of the present invention is that when the error part is corrected, the terminal operator only needs to input the record key of the error information + the correction text of the error location instead of re-inputting the full text of the information. From a good point, the input operation can be reduced when the number of digits of the information to be processed is large.
