Abstract

PURPOSE:To permit a user to use a target file without being conscious of the structure of a data base or the file environment of a system by assigning the file into which information on the file is registered at the time of executing a program and designating the name of a group by means of the program. CONSTITUTION:An information input part 6 inputting information on the file into which information on the file is registered from the specified file when the file is not assigned at the time of executing the program, an information input part 7 inputting information on the file belonging to the group by the group name designated by the program from the file assigned by information on the file inputted by the information input part 6, a file information input part 8 inputting information on the file belonging to the large group added to the group name, a file use system alteration part 11 altering the use system of the file by information which is given when the program is executed, and a file assignment part 14 assigning the file based on the processing result of the file information input part 8 and the file use system alteration part 11 are given.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to environment settings when a user executes a program, and more particularly to an automatic file assignment system.

0002

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a user has had to provide file information each time a program is executed and assign all files necessary for executing the program. Furthermore, as the execution form of the program changes (for example, whether the program is in the test stage or in the production stage), file information must be changed and all files must be assigned.

0003

[Problem to be Solved by the Invention] The above-mentioned conventional file assignment method has the disadvantage that, especially when using a structured database, the user cannot use the database unless the user fully understands the structure of the database. .

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned points, the object of the present invention is to automatically input the usage method of the files necessary for using the database and other necessary files by simply specifying the name of the group to which the relevant database belongs, and to save the necessary files. The objective is to provide a method for assigning.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems] The automatic file assignment method of the present invention is such that when a file in which file information is registered is not assigned at the time of program execution, a file in which information of the file is registered is changed from a default file. A first input means for inputting information, and a file in which information of a file assigned at the time of execution is registered, or a file assigned according to information of a file input by the first input means, and a group name specified by the program is used to select the group. a second input means for inputting information on files belonging to the large group; a third input means for inputting information on files belonging to the large group from the large group name information added to the group name; and file usage changing means for changing the file usage method.

[0006]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, automatic file assignment method 1 includes an information input section 6 that inputs information of a file in which file information has been registered from a default file if the file whose file information has been registered has not been assigned at the time of program execution. , Information input for inputting information on files belonging to a group by a group name specified in the program from a file in which information of a file assigned at the time of execution is registered or a file assigned according to file information input by the information input section 6. a file information input unit 8 that inputs information about files belonging to the large group from the large group name information added to the group name; and a file information input unit 8 that changes the file usage method based on the information given at the time of program execution. Method change unit 11
and a file assigning section 14 that assigns files based on the processing results of the file information input section 8 and file usage method changing section 11 described above.

The file information file information input section 6 searches whether the file information file 5 on the auxiliary storage device 4 is assigned. If it is not assigned, the information of the default file 3 on the auxiliary storage device 2 is read and the file information file 5 is assigned using this information.

The large group file information input unit 7 reads the large group file information from the group name specified by the program in the file information file 5 to the end of the record based on the information added to the group name.

From the file information file 5, the file information input section 8 inputs the group name specified by the program.
Read the file information for the group name until the end of the record.

The file usage method changing unit 11 reads the file usage method changing information in the program execution information file 10 on the auxiliary storage device 9, and uses the file information read by the large group file information input unit 7 and file information input unit 8. We will change the usage method regarding.

The file assignment section 14 assigns the user file group 13 on the auxiliary storage device group 12 based on the information obtained from the large group file information input section 7, file information input section 8, and file usage method change section 11. Assign so that it can actually be used.

[0013]

[Effects of the Invention] According to the automatic file assignment method according to the present invention, when a program is executed, a file in which file information is registered is assigned, or a file in which file information is registered is implicitly assigned from a default file. By specifying the group name in , the user can use the target file without being aware of the database structure or system file environment.

[0014] In particular, consideration is given to program testing.
End users and new programmers can now easily execute programs that could previously only be executed by systems departments with deep knowledge of the system.
