Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer technology, and in particular to a parameter configuration method, apparatus and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] User experience designers or product designers, when debugging the visual effects of product interfaces such as devices, usually save the modified parameters in the engine configuration file so that the rendering engine can directly read the engine configuration file. This allows engine development to be carried out without directly changing the configuration of the human-computer interaction interface.

[0003] However, each time the engine configuration file is read, the rendering engine needs to start the device to check the presentation of the product interface, resulting in still low debugging efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to further improve the configuration efficiency of the user interface. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, embodiments of the present invention provide a parameter configuration method, apparatus, and storage medium to solve or alleviate the above problems.

[0006] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a parameter configuration method is provided, comprising: obtaining configuration parameters of an interface into the memory space of an application software corresponding to the interface; the business logic layer of the application software sending the configuration parameters in the memory space to the rendering engine of the application software; and the rendering engine configuring the parameters of the interface using the configuration parameters.

[0007] According to a second aspect of the present invention, a parameter configuration apparatus is provided, comprising: an acquisition module for acquiring configuration parameters of an interface into the memory space of an application software corresponding to the interface; a sending module for the business logic layer of the application software to send the configuration parameters in the memory space to the rendering engine of the application software; and a configuration module for the rendering engine to configure the parameters of the interface using the configuration parameters.

[0008] According to a third aspect of the present invention, a storage medium is provided having a computer program stored thereon, which, when executed by a processor, implements a parameter configuration method according to the first aspect.

[0009] In the solution of this embodiment of the invention, since the configuration parameters of the interface are obtained in the memory space of the application software corresponding to the interface, the configuration parameters can be sent directly from the memory space to the rendering engine. Therefore, the rendering engine can quickly obtain the configuration parameters of the interface, which improves the real-time configuration efficiency of the interface. Attached Figure Description

[0019] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0020] The specific implementation of the embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the debugging of a typical in-vehicle infotainment system. (Example:) Figure 1As shown, the debugging device 20 can generate an engine configuration file for the user interface (UI) of the application software 14 and transfer the configuration file to the storage space 11 of the vehicle system 10. The storage space 11 is a secondary storage space such as flash memory or read-only memory. When the vehicle system 10 starts up or restarts, the rendering engine 12 reads the configuration file from the storage space 11 and writes it into the memory 13. Then, the rendering engine 12 calls the graphics processor to configure the user interface of the application software 14.

[0022] Figure 2 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a parameter configuration method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The solution of this embodiment can be applied to any suitable electronic device with data processing capabilities, including but not limited to mobile terminals (such as mobile phones, tablets, etc.), in-vehicle systems, and PCs. Figure 2 The parameter configuration methods include:

[0023] 210: Retrieve the configuration parameters of the interface into the memory space of the application software corresponding to the interface.

[0024] It should be understood that the interface can be the interface of application software (e.g., a client) for electronic devices such as in-vehicle infotainment systems. It can be installed in the operating system of the electronic device using parameter configuration methods, for example, in the operating system of an in-vehicle infotainment system. The aforementioned operating systems include, but are not limited to, embedded operating systems, real-time operating systems, IoT operating systems, desktop operating systems, server operating systems, etc.

[0025] It should also be understood that configuration parameters can be retrieved from secondary storage (external storage) and transferred to main memory (primary storage). Secondary storage refers to all accessible data storage outside of the computer's main memory or main memory. It is where programs and data are stored long-term, including but not limited to (fixed / removable) hard drives, optical discs, etc. The configuration file can also be obtained from peripheral interfaces or network interfaces, such as wireless network interfaces, near-field communication network interfaces, and mobile network interfaces.

[0026] 220: The application software's business logic layer sends the configuration parameters in the memory space to the application software's rendering engine.

[0027] It should be understood that the rendering engine can be invoked through application software. For example, the configuration parameters can be forwarded to the rendering engine by the application software calling the rendering engine's API.

[0028] 230: The rendering engine uses configuration parameters to configure the parameters of the interface.

[0029] It should be understood that the rendering engine can invoke the graphics processor through shaders to configure parameters for the user. Interface configuration parameters include at least one of the following: interface color parameters, control size parameters, and control position and layout parameters.

[0030] In one example, configuration parameters can be data that the shader can process. The rendering engine can forward these configuration parameters to the shader without parsing them, thus improving data processing efficiency.

[0031] In another example, the configuration parameters can be parameters that the rendering engine can parse, and after being parsed by the rendering engine, the shader can process the parsed data, thus eliminating the need for special configuration of the shader and achieving seamless integration with the underlying layers.

[0032] In the solution of this embodiment of the invention, since the configuration parameters of the interface are obtained in the memory space of the application software corresponding to the interface, the configuration parameters can be sent directly from the memory space to the rendering engine. Therefore, the rendering engine can quickly obtain the configuration parameters of the interface, which improves the real-time configuration efficiency of the interface.

[0033] Furthermore, existing solutions require device restarts to configure the interface, making it difficult to detect subtle interface changes such as color or size during the interface debugging process. The embodiments of this application are able to...

[0034] In another implementation of the present invention, obtaining the configuration parameters of the interface into the memory space of the application software corresponding to the interface includes: the interface layer of the application software reading the configuration parameters of the interface through a peripheral interface; and the interface layer obtaining the configuration parameters into the memory space of the application software corresponding to the interface.

[0035] Because it can obtain the configuration parameters of the application software's user interface into the application software's corresponding memory space through the peripheral interface, it achieves flexibility and speed in obtaining configuration parameters.

[0036] In another implementation of the present invention, the interface layer of the application software reads the configuration parameters of the interface through the peripheral interface, including: the interface layer of the application software accesses a file containing the configuration parameters of the interface in the external debugging device through the communication connection between the peripheral interface and the external debugging device; the interface layer reads the file to obtain the configuration parameters.

[0037] Because the configuration parameters of the application software's user interface can be obtained from the peripheral debugging device used to generate configuration parameters via the peripheral interface and transferred to the memory space corresponding to the application software, parameter debugging efficiency is achieved.

[0038] In another implementation of the present invention, the method further includes: establishing a communication connection between the peripheral interface and an external debugging device.

[0039] Because a communication connection can be established even without a communication connection, the flexibility of obtaining configuration parameters is further improved.

[0040] In one example, the method also includes disconnecting the communication connection between the peripheral interface and the external debugging device.

[0041] In another implementation of the present invention, the configuration parameters are implemented based on Extensible Markup Language (XML) or on the data format JASON.

[0042] Because Extensible Markup Language (XML) or the data format JASON are structured languages, the efficiency of the rendering engine in parsing configuration parameters is improved.

[0043] In another implementation of the present invention, sending configuration parameters from memory space to the rendering engine includes: forwarding configuration parameters from memory space to the rendering engine via the business logic layer of the application software.

[0044] Because the configuration parameters can be forwarded from memory to the rendering engine through the application software's business logic layer, and there is an inherent interface between the business logic layer and the rendering engine, the user interface configuration can be implemented using this interface without additional configuration.

[0045] In another implementation of the present invention, the rendering engine configures the parameters of the interface using configuration parameters, including: parsing the configuration parameters through the rendering engine to obtain the parsing result; sending the parsing result to the shader; and the shader scheduling the graphics processor using the parsing result to draw the interface.

[0046] Since the rendering engine can parse the configuration parameters and obtain the parsing results, the shader can use the parsing results to schedule the graphics processor to draw the user interface without changing the shader configuration, thus achieving seamless rendering of the underlying layer.

[0047] Figure 3A This is a schematic diagram illustrating parameter configuration for another embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3A As shown, the debugging device sends configuration information in formats such as XML or JASON to the parameter configuration method interface. The parameter configuration method interface forwards the configuration information to the rendering engine through the Business Logic (BL) layer. The rendering engine calls the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) through shaders to draw the user interface.

[0048] In another implementation of the present invention, the interface layer obtains the configuration parameters into the memory space of the application software corresponding to the interface, including: while deleting the previous configuration parameters in the memory space of the application software corresponding to the interface, the interface layer obtains the configuration parameters into the memory space of the application software corresponding to the interface to update the configuration parameters.

[0049] It should be understood that updating configuration parameters improves the efficiency of real-time debugging of the user interface.

[0050] Figure 3B This is a schematic diagram of a parameter configuration interface according to another embodiment of the present invention. In this example, the parameter configuration interface may include a toolbar and corresponding operation areas. The toolbar may include tabs such as a configuration parameter editing tab, a send tab for sending configuration parameters to the vehicle system, a save tab for saving the current configuration parameters as a file, an import tab for importing existing configuration parameters, a file generation tab for generating XML files, and a generation tab for generating code, etc. It should be understood that the functions of the various tabs and the arrangement of the tabs are merely exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of the present invention.

[0051] like Figure 3B As shown, for example, triggering the configuration parameter editing tab will take you to the configuration parameter editing interface. In the interface shown in the figure, parameters for attributes such as global, land, grassland, water system, building facade, building roof, and dynamic sky are configured. For example, the corresponding parameters can be adjusted or initialized through user input.

[0052] Furthermore, in response to a trigger on the send tab of the vehicle's infotainment system to send the edited configuration parameters, corresponding data can be sent to the system's application software. In one example, the edited configuration parameters can be directly sent to the application software's interface layer, which then forwards the data to the rendering engine to configure the application software's parameters. In another example, the edited configuration parameters can be encrypted, and the encrypted parameters can be sent to the application software's interface layer to configure the application software's parameters.

[0053] Furthermore, responding to the trigger of the Save tab for saving the current configuration parameters to a file allows the edited configuration parameters to be saved locally. Responding to the trigger of the Import tab for importing existing configuration parameters allows the saved configuration parameters to be displayed in the interface; additionally, responding to the trigger of the Import tab for importing existing configuration parameters also allows the import of pre-stored configuration parameters locally or obtained via the network. It should be understood that the imported pre-stored or network-obtained configuration parameters can be in encrypted or unencrypted format.

[0054] Furthermore, in response to the triggering of the file generation tab for generating XML files, the locally input configuration parameters are generated into an XML format file. It should be understood that the application software's interface layer can have its own interface for reading XML format files, enabling efficient configuration parameter processing and allowing for quick viewing of the interface effects based on the input configuration parameters.

[0055] Furthermore, in response to triggering the generate tab for generating code, the locally input configuration parameters are used to generate code. In one example, the generated code can serve as a configuration file for the rendering engine. In another example, the generated code allows modification (e.g., increasing or decreasing) of individual attributes in the configuration parameters (e.g., land, grass, cloud density, solar radius, etc.). This enables efficient input of individual parameter values ​​for attributes and allows configuration of individual attributes by changing the code.

Therefore, the rendering engine can quickly obtain the configuration parameters of the interface, which improves the real-time configuration efficiency of the interface.

[0072] In another implementation of the present invention, the electronic device is a vehicle-mounted system.

[0073] In another implementation of the present invention, the acquisition module is specifically used for: the interface layer of the application software reading the configuration parameters of the interface through the peripheral interface; and the interface layer acquiring the configuration parameters into the memory space of the application software corresponding to the interface.

[0077] In another implementation of the present invention, the device further includes: a communication establishment module for establishing a communication connection between the peripheral interface and an external debugging device.

[0078] Because a communication connection can be established even without a communication connection, the flexibility of obtaining configuration parameters is further improved.

[0079] In another implementation of the present invention, the configuration parameters are implemented based on Extensible Markup Language (XML) or on the data format JASON.

[0080] Because Extensible Markup Language (XML) or the data format JASON are structured languages, the efficiency of the rendering engine in parsing configuration parameters is improved.

[0081] In another implementation of the present invention, the sending module is specifically used to forward configuration parameters from the memory space to the rendering engine via the business logic layer of the application software.

[0082] Because the configuration parameters can be forwarded from memory to the rendering engine through the application software's business logic layer, and there is an inherent interface between the business logic layer and the rendering engine, the user interface configuration can be implemented using this interface without additional configuration.
