Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate a file on a work station-side and to reduce the cost of a work station by providing a control mechanism obtaining screen definition information from a basic processor-side and inputting/outputting a screen in accordance with screen definition information. CONSTITUTION:A screen definition tool 2, a screen definition file 4 storing generated screen definition information 6 and a screen control mechanism 3 controlling screen definition information stored in the file 4 are provided on the basic processor 10-side. Furthermore, the work station control mechanism 5 which retrieves information 6 based on a request from the control mechanism 3, follows information when it is registered, obtains information 6 from the control mechanism 3 when it is not registered and inputs/outputs the screen in accordance with information 6 after registration is provided. Thus, information on an application-side and that on the work station-side are prevented from going to different at the time of executing information 6, the work station without a file device can be realized and the cost of the work station can be reduced.

いる。The workstation screen control mechanism of the present invention is an information processing device having a basic processing unit and a workstation, and includes a screen definition tool for defining a screen, and a screen for storing screen definition information created by the screen definition tool. The basic processing unit has a definition file and a screen control mechanism that communicates with the workstation based on screen input/output requests from applications and controls the screen definition information stored in the screen definition file. Search for screen definition information based on a request from the mechanism, and if it has already been registered in the screen definition file, follow that information, or if it has not yet been registered, obtain the screen definition information from the screen control mechanism,
After registration, the workstation has a workstation control mechanism that performs screen input/output according to screen definition information.

〔実施例〕〔Example〕

本発明の実施例について図面に基づいて説明する。 Embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.
