Problem

The incompatibility of software development kits (SDKs) with different access applications necessitates manual coding efforts, leading to increased workload and reduced compatibility efficiency as internal functions become more complex and access applications increase in number.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that utilize a management and control center to issue a specific bridge matching the configuration of an access application, incorporating a specific compatibility policy and SDK functional components, allowing seamless integration without manual coding.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If manual coding is used to make SDK compatible with different access applications, then compatibility can be achieved, but the workload increases and compatibility efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveSDK compatibility with different access applicationsVSAvoidcompatibility efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a bridge as an intermediary component between the access application and the SDK. This bridge includes a compatibility policy that automatically processes service parameters, eliminating the need for manual coding. The bridge acts as a mediator that translates between different interfaces, resolving the technical contradiction by maintaining adaptability while dramatically improving productivity through automated parameter processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If manual coding is used for SDK compatibility, then customization for specific applications is possible, but the workload increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecustomization capabilityVSAvoidworkload complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The compatibility policy in the bridge implements self-service by automatically processing service parameters without requiring manual intervention. The system serves itself by having the bridge autonomously handle parameter transformations, parameter type conversions, and data format adjustments, thereby maintaining customization capability while reducing workload complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Adaptability or versatility

If SDK internal functions become richer and more complex, then functionality improves, but manual compatibility workload increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveSDK functionalityVSAvoidcompatibility development time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-configuring the bridge with compatibility policies that define how service parameters should be processed. These policies are established in advance and automatically applied when the SDK interacts with different access applications. This preliminary setup eliminates the need for time-consuming manual compatibility work as SDK functionality expands.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

4Adaptability or versatility

If the number of access applications increases, then market coverage improves, but manual compatibility workload increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccess application coverageVSAvoidcompatibility development efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The bridge is designed as a universal component that can serve multiple access applications through a single compatibility policy. Rather than creating separate integration code for each application, the bridge provides multi-functional parameter processing capabilities that adapt to different applications automatically. This universality enables market coverage expansion while maintaining high compatibility development efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

A method for compatibility of an SDK with an access application includes transmitting to a management and control center bridge configuration information of an access application, the bridge configuration information representing configuration of an application function module of the access application; receiving a specific bridge issued by the management and control center and matched with the bridge configuration information, the specific bridge including a specific compatibility policy and SDK function modules, and the specific compatibility policy being used for carrying out specific processing on service parameters required by the application function module, so as to make the service parameters compatible with service parameters required by an SDK functional component in an SDK having a function corresponding to the application function module; mounting the specific bridge in the SDK; and when the access application runs the application function module, calling the corresponding SDK functional component by using the specific compatibility policy.
