Embodiment
Exemplary embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to accompanying drawings in more detail.Although shown exemplary embodiment of the present invention in the accompanying drawing, yet should be appreciated that and to realize the present invention and the embodiment that should do not set forth limits here with various forms.On the contrary, it is in order to understand the present invention more thoroughly that these embodiment are provided, and can with scope of the present invention complete convey to those skilled in the art.
In following examples of the present invention, utilize dialing interface (for example, physics or be presented at virtual dial-up dish on the screen) search for application, this dialing interface is not only supported the numeral input, also support the input of Chinese character and character, can obtain thus the information than horn of plenty, this just lays the foundation for the various application of thorough search.
According to one embodiment of present invention, be provided with a plurality of buttons on the dialing interface, mainly be comprised of digital keys (" 9 " key) and function button (comprising " * " key and " # " key), digital keys wherein can be corresponding to one or more letters.In a dialing interface, each button and alphabetic(al) mapping relations are as shown in table 1:
Table 1 is pressed key name and alphabetic(al) corresponding relation
| Press key name | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 0 | * | # |
| Alphabet name | Empty | ABC | DEF | GHI | JKL | MNO | PQRS | TUV | WXYZ | + | Empty | Empty |
According to upper table 1, most numerical keys are corresponding 3 ~ 4 letters all, and each combination of numbers is all corresponding to multiple monogram, as press numeral " 557 ", can corresponding " llq ", and multiple monograms such as " jjq ".Input message than horn of plenty can be obtained according to this syntagmatic, the various application related with it can be further searched for thus.Be understandable that, only limit to explain following examples by key name and alphabetic(al) corresponding relation in the table 1, it does not also mean that the mapping table that dialing interface must employing table 1 provides, and what each embodiment of the present invention all can determine other as the case may be presses key name and alphabet mapping table.
See also Fig. 1, it shows the process flow diagram of the method for the dialing interface search application that utilizes according to an embodiment of the invention intelligent terminal.The basic process of this embodiment is: receive the initial information (such as step S110) via the dialing interface input, judge whether there is default search index sign (such as step S120) in the initial information again; If, from initial information, extract search keyword information, and the various application that are complementary of search and search keyword information, and return the various application related information (such as step S130 ~ step S140) that search; If not, continue to receive the initial information via the dialing interface input, when in initial information, having the search index sign, use according to the method search of step S130 ~ step S140 again.
Below further combined with Fig. 1, the method for utilizing the dialing interface search of intelligent terminal to use to present embodiment is described in detail.The method starts from step S110, wherein receives the initial information via the dialing interface input.But the initial information by the dialing interface input is generally identifying information, and its particular content form of expression is the combination of numeral, letter or function character functional character.Can there be indefinite implication in the content of this initial information, wherein may comprise two category informations, and a category information is search index sign (such as specific characters such as " # "), and another kind of information is search keyword information.If find to exist the search index sign when resolving this initial information, then according to the relevant application of following step search.According to one embodiment of present invention, dialing interface mostly is used for being made outwards to call by the user, so the user mostly just utilizes dialing interface to input some digital numbers.For this situation, the embodiment of the invention has been expanded the function of dial (of a telephone) widely.
After receiving the initial information of inputting, in step S120, judge whether there is default search index sign in the initial information that receives.Judge whether there is search index sign in the initial information in this step, purpose is that dialing interface is transformed into the search application model, in order to provide access for search related applications.The search index sign here can be set to the specific character on the dialing interface easily, comparatively it is desirable to be set as the " # " character, and this is because the " # " key on the dialing interface is not taken by other preset function, identifies also comparatively easily cause.Further, present embodiment can identify as search index by first " # " character, the search keyword information that the numeral that occurs thereafter, monogram information are extracted as needs.
Because the " # " character seldom uses in existing dialing application, even and used the " # " character, also mostly just be as the ending character of inputting in certain phone application (for example in some telephone banks use).In one embodiment of the invention, the search index sign is set to first " # " character, can't cause any interference to existing various dialing application, but has increased the new function of dialing application.
Be understandable that the search index sign here is also predeterminable to be other form.For example, the last " # " character that occurs in the input message is identified as search index, and with the input message before this " # " character as search keyword information; For another example, identify as search index with " * " character, and will reject input message behind " * " character as search keyword information; And for example, as search index sign, and the information that " 000 " is inputted afterwards is as search keyword information with initial input " 000 ".How according to the button predefine search index sign of dialing interface, do not do requirement at this, easy to identify, being difficult for makeing mistakes is as the criterion.
When determining that in step S120 the user has inputted the search index sign, at step S130 place, from initial information, extract search keyword information.Because the user has inputted the search index sign, dialing interface has been transformed into the search application model, thereby needs to extract relevant search keyword information, in order to carry out the search of subsequent step.
A kind of concrete embodiment is: search index sign predefine is the book character on the dialing interface, and search keyword information predefine is the remaining information after book character in the initial information.Further, search keyword information predefine is any combination that comprises corresponding each information of respective keys that receive, on dialing interface, and wherein the respective keys in the dialing interface is corresponding to one or more letter.
For example, a certain initial information is " #557 ", then " # " is identified as the search index sign, and the various numerals that " 557 " are corresponding or monogram is as search keyword information.Be understandable that there be multiple may the combination in the search keyword information that obtains thus, just to " llq " should be arranged, at this moment " jjq " etc. need these keyword combinations are searched for respectively such as " 557 ".
Initial information in the embodiment of the invention should broadly be understood: a kind of situation is to have comprised search index sign and search keyword information in the initial input, as above " #557 " of example; Another kind of situation is, includes only the search index sign in the initial input, and search keyword information need to be inputted after obtaining the search index sign.For example, only comprise a specific character " # " in the initial information, not without other input, namely the remaining information of this initial information after book character is empty set in addition.At this moment can carry out corresponding prompting, so that the user continues to input other significant character, obtain thus corresponding search keyword information.That is to say that initial information herein is construed as the follow-up input message of the search index sign+input prompt of original input.
For rear a kind of situation, can after input is complete, extract again search keyword information, also can in input process, dynamically extract search keyword information.The example of a Dynamic Extraction search keyword information is: input at first " # ", it is identified as the search index sign; Input one " 5 " after the prompting input, at this moment extract " 5 ", " J ", " K " or " L " is as search keyword information; Then input again one " 5 ", at this moment can extract " 55 ", " 5J ", " 5K ", " 5L ", " J5 ", " JJ ", " JK ", " JL " ..., etc. as search keyword information.
After obtaining search keyword information by the way, just these searching key words can be combined as certain search type, then in step S140, carry out follow-up application searches.In step S140, the various application that search and search keyword information are complementary, and return the various application related information that search.After obtaining search keyword information by previous step S130, these keywords are searched for as search type, can mate with some or a plurality of Apply Nameses or bag name etc. such as it, think that then these are used and the search keyword information coupling, can use these as Search Results this moment, need return simultaneously the relevant information of various application in this Search Results.Be understandable that these relevant informations can show, store or transmit, and repeat no more on the net.
Generally speaking, the application in the present embodiment can be local mounted application, and also can be on the net can be for the application of downloading; Certainly also can both comprise local mounted application, comprising again on the net can be for the application of downloading.These application can be stored as the form of list of application, and this list of application can obtain by known prior art, also can obtain by the description content of following embodiment.
In the present embodiment, can be by the API(application programming interfaces) obtain all list of applications.Take the intelligent terminal that adopts Android operating system as example, it can use the API in the Android system to obtain mounted all list of applications on the terminal, and is kept in the high-speed cache.When terminal unloading or new installation application, system can send broadcast, and can utilize corresponding API to remove to refresh the list of application that is kept in the high-speed cache this moment, with accuracy, the integrality that guarantees this list of application.
Below specifically disclose this embodiment and how to have used API to obtain all list of applications, wherein can obtain list of application with two Android system API, as follows respectively:
(1) API of list of application
The android.content.pm.PackageManager class
public?abstract?List<PackageInfo>getInstalledPackages(int?flags)
The application result that this classification is returned is the java class
public?class?PackageInfoEx{
public?String?packageName;
public?String?appName;
public?String?versionName;
public?String?sourceDir;
}
Particular content is:
The bag name of packageName---application;
AppName---present to user's apply names;
The version number of versionName---application;
The installation path on mobile phone of sourceDir---application.
For example, during the v1.2.0Bata of a certain browser uses, above content be respectively " com.qihoo.browser ", " a certain browser ", " 1.2.0Bata ", "/data/app/com.qihoo.browser.apk ".
(2) obtain the API of most recently used list of application
The android API of android.app.ActivityManager class:
public?List<RecentTaskInfo>getRecentTasks(int?maxNum,int?flags)
The tabulation of obtaining automatically according to time sequence, storage format and (1) similar.Wherein, there is not information service time in the list of application that API obtains in (1), so need the API in (2) to obtain nearest use list of application.When using by (1) and (2) search, may there be the situation of repetition, only needs that at this moment the Search Results among both is gathered rear filter and heavily get final product.
According to aforesaid way, present embodiment can obtain the mounted application in various this locality and/or can for the list of application of downloading, can search for efficiently thus on the net.
In addition, for convenience, integrality, the accuracy that improves search, present embodiment creates a concordance list to acquired list of application in advance, after index is built up, can directly find the application result that mates with key word information from concordance list when needing search.The efficient of this way of search is higher, below describes in further detail.
Present embodiment is according to mounted application that obtain above, local and/or can set up the application references table for the list of application of downloading on the net.This application references table comprises with each uses corresponding application references item, and wherein each application references item comprises one or more and uses the index terms that is associated.
The index terms here specifically can comprise at least one in following: the Chinese that the combination of the phonetic beginning letter of each Chinese word in the phonetic that the Chinese of the English name of application, the Chinese of application, application is corresponding, the Chinese of application, the Chinese of application are called for short, use is called for short corresponding phonetic and the phonetic beginning monogram of the Chinese used each Chinese word in being called for short, etc.For example, for using " browser ", can be with " llq " (first letter of pinyin of " browser ") or " liulanqi " etc. as index terms.Be understandable that, in order to improve the success ratio of search, can also preset more index terms, repeat no more.
After setting up concordance list according to the method described above, can the easily various application of search in this list of application.For example, when searching key word is complementary with one or more index terms that is associated during certain is used, think that then this application and searching key word are complementary, should use thus and return as Search Results.In the present embodiment, because each application can comprise a plurality of index terms, can mate more search keyword information thus, thereby can improve the success ratio of search, also reduced thus searching key word input number of times, thereby improved search efficiency, hereby described for example.
Referring to Fig. 2, its procedure chart for utilizing the search keyword information search to use among Fig. 1.Among Fig. 2, each application in the list of application 210 sets in advance the index entry of one or more associations, comprise a plurality of keyword combinations in the search keyword information 220, if certain keyword combination is complementary with certain index entry, then think the application related with this index entry and this search keyword information coupling, return the application message of correspondence to Search Results 230 and get final product this moment.
As shown in Figure 2, comprise m application in the list of application 210, comprise n keyword combination in the search keyword information 220, the result of search is: keyword combination 1 and at least one index terms coupling of using in 3, return thus corresponding application message 1; Keyword combination 2 and keyword combination 5 are mated with at least one index terms of using 3 respectively, return thus corresponding application message 2; So analogize, finally obtain the application that all the match is successful.As shown in Figure 2, final Search Results comprises application message 1, application message 2 ..., application message t.Obviously this Search Results can carry out certain ordering, in order to show, store or transmit.
