Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a message display method for displaying an output message of an information processing device in a predetermined language.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, this type of message display method has consisted of a message storage file expressed in one language and a message display means that refers to the file and outputs the message. If it is necessary to display a message in another language, create another message storage file written in the language used for one display, and have the message display means search for the created message storage file when displaying the message. It had become.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

In this way, with the conventional message display method, if you need to display a message in another language, it is necessary to create a separate message storage file, and even if you prepare a separate message storage file, it is difficult to display the message in another language. It was necessary to change the contents of the message storage file and change the message storage file to add a new message to all the message storage files corresponding to each language, so it was necessary to change the message storage file management. The disadvantage was that it was difficult.

The present invention improves on these conventional drawbacks, and its purpose is to eliminate the need to create a separate message storage file even when messages need to be displayed in another language, and to improve the management of message storage files. The object of the present invention is to provide a message display method that facilitates message display.

[Means to solve the problem]

The message display method of the present invention comprises: an information processing means that performs information processing; a message display means that receives the content of a message output by the information processing means; and a message text creation means that receives a request from the message display means to create a message text. , a message display means for displaying the created message text, a language grammar knowledge storage means for storing grammar knowledge of the language of the message text to be displayed, and a message content definition for defining the content of the message text. message content definition storage means, the message text creation means utilizes the message content definition stored in the message content definition storage means based on the language grammar knowledge stored in the language grammar knowledge storage means. It is designed to be created as a message text in the language of the person's choice.

[Effect]

When the message display means receives the content of the message from the information processing means, it requests the message text creation means to create a message text in the language selected by the user. Accordingly, the message text creation means creates the message content definition stored in the message content definition storage means as a message text in the language selected by the user based on the language grammar knowledge stored in the language grammar knowledge storage means. and passes it to the message display means. When the message display means receives the message, it passes it to the message display means, and the message display means displays the message text in the language selected by the user.

〔Example〕

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of one embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, the information processing means 106 performs information processing and, when it is necessary to display a message, requests the output of a message text corresponding to the content of the message. 105 causes the message text creation means 101 to write the content of the message output by the information processing means 106 as a document in the language selected by the user, and passes it to the message display means 104 as output message document data for display. It has become.

Further, the language grammar knowledge storage means 102 stores grammar knowledge 108 of the language of the output message to be displayed, and the message content definition storage means 103 stores the grammar knowledge 108 for the language of the output message to be displayed. Output message content definition 107 is stored. The message text creation means 101 generates the content definition 103 of the output message stored in the message content definition storage means 103 based on the language grammar knowledge 108 stored in the language grammar knowledge storage means 102. The message text is created in a predetermined language that corresponds to the text.

Note that the content definition 107 in the message content definition storage unit 103 can be used in the message text creation unit 1 without depending on the language.
is stored in a format that can be referenced.

Next, the procedure for message display processing in such a configuration will be explained. The information processing means 106 performs the information processing required by the user, and if it is necessary to display the message to the user, it outputs a message display request MRQ and sends the code number of the message to the message display means 105. hand over. Thereby, the message display means 105 requests the message text creation means 101 to create the text of the message requested by the message display request MRQK, using the message text creation request MIQ. The message document creation means 101 sends a message document creation request MIQ
It receives the code numbers of the messages to be output as many as K, and sends a content definition request CDR to the message content definition storage means 103 in order to obtain the message content definition corresponding to the message code number.

The content definition storage means 103 stores the message content definition 107.
is searched, and the searched message content definition CD is returned to the message text creation means 101. The message text creation means 101 also sends the language grammar knowledge request GKR to the language grammar knowledge storage means 102 □.

The language grammar knowledge storage means 102 stores knowledge of the grammar rules of the language used for displaying the language grammar knowledge 10.
8 and returns the retrieved language and grammar knowledge GK to the message writing means 101.

As a result, the message text creation means 101 creates the message content definition CD as a text using the language and grammar knowledge GK, and passes the created message text SNT to the message display means 105. The message display means 105 receives the created message text SNT, converts it into a data format to be displayed by the message display means 104, and passes the converted message text data DT to the message display means 104.

This allows the message display means 104 to display the message text data DT in the language selected by the user as an output message.

In this way, in this embodiment, the user selects the language in which the output message to be displayed is written, and when the message is output according to the selection, the message is created using the language selected by the user. If the meaning of the message can be displayed in text and the message content needs to be changed or added, the message content definition storage means 103
Change or add the meaning of messages stored in , change the output messages displayed in each language,
Additions can be made.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, in the present invention, the message text creation means creates the message content definition as a message text in the language selected by the user based on the grammatical knowledge of the language. Messages can be easily displayed in one message storage file, and the message storage file can be easily managed.
