Description

이동통신 단말기의 메시지 관리 방법{MESSAGE MANAGEMENT METHOD FOR MOBILE TELECOMMUNICATION TERMINAL EQUIPMENT}MESSAGE MANAGEMENT METHOD FOR MOBILE TELECOMMUNICATION TERMINAL EQUIPMENT}

본 발명은 이동통신 단말기에서 수신한 메시지 중 특정 메시지가 본의 아니게 삭제되는 것을 방지하는 기술에 관한 것으로, 특히 수신함 비우기를 실행하거나 새로운 수신 메시지를 저장할 메모리 영역이 부족하여 기존의 메시지들을 삭제할 때 보존할 필요가 있는 메시지가 삭제되는 것을 방지할 수 있도록 한 이동통신 단말기의 메시지 관리 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a technique for preventing an unintentional deletion of a specific message among messages received by a mobile communication terminal. Particularly, the present invention preserves when deleting an existing message due to the emptying of an inbox or the lack of a memory area for storing a new received message. The present invention relates to a message management method of a mobile communication terminal so as to prevent a message that needs to be deleted.

종래의 이동통신 단말기에 있어서는 수신된 메시지를 소정의 메모리 영역 즉, 수신함에 보관하고 있다가 사용자가 수신함 비우기 기능을 선택하면 그 수신함에 보관중이던 메시지들을 모두 삭제 처리하였다. 또한, 상기 수신함에 메시지들이 가득 찬 상태에서 새로운 메시지를 수신하는 경우, 보관중이던 메시지 중 일부를 삭제 처리한 후 새로운 메시지를 저장하도록 하였다.In a conventional mobile communication terminal, a received message is stored in a predetermined memory area, that is, an inbox, and when a user selects the empty inbox, all messages stored in the inbox are deleted. In addition, when a new message is received while the inbox is full of messages, a new message is stored after deleting some of the stored messages.

이와 같이 종래 기술에 의한 이동통신 단말기의 메시지 관리 기술에 있어서는 수신함 비우기 기능을 실행하면 수신함에 보관중이던 메시지들을 모두 삭제 처리하고, 새로운 수신 메시지를 저장할 메모리 영역이 부족한 경우에는 기존의 메시지들 중 일부를 삭제처리하게 되어 있어 보존할 필요가 있는 메시지가 본의 아니게 삭제되는 문제점이 있었다.As described above, in the message management technique of the mobile communication terminal according to the prior art, when the emptying of the inbox is executed, all the messages stored in the inbox are deleted. When the memory area for storing the new received message is insufficient, some of the existing messages are deleted. There was a problem that messages that need to be preserved are deleted unintentionally because they are to be deleted.

이와 같이 특정 메시지가 삭제되는 것을 방지하기 위해서는 수신함 비우기기능을 사용하지 않고 메시지들을 하나씩 순차적으로 선택하여 그 중에서 불필요한 메시지들만 삭제 처리해야 하므로 그에 따른 시간과 노력이 소모되는 또 다른 문제점이 발생되었다In order to prevent a specific message from being deleted, another problem that consumes time and effort is generated because the messages must be selected sequentially one by one without using the emptying of the inbox function and only the unnecessary messages are deleted.

따라서, 본 발명의 목적은 수신된 메시지들 중 계속 보관할 필요가 있는 메시지에 대해서는 잠금기능을 부여하여 무단으로 삭제 처리되는 것을 방지하는 이동통신 단말기의 메시지 관리 방법을 제공함에 있다.Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a message management method of a mobile communication terminal which prevents unauthorized deletion by granting a lock function to a message that needs to be kept continuously among received messages.

SA1-SA7 : 제1-7단계SA1-SA7: Steps 1-7

본 발명에 의한 이동통신 단말기의 메시지 관리 방법은, 상대방으로부터 메시지를 수신받을 때 사용자가 잠금기능을 선택하면 사용자로부터 비밀번호를 입력받는 제1과정과; 상기 입력된 비밀번호를 기 저장되어 있는 비밀번호와 비교하여 서로 일치하는 것으로 판명되면 해당 메시지에 대한 잠금용 플래그를 셋팅하고, 해당 메시지를 수신함에 저장하는 제2과정과; 수신함 비우기를 실행하거나 수신함이 가득차 있어 일부 메시지를 삭제할 때 상기 잠금용 플래그가 셋팅된 메시지는 삭제 대상에서 제외시키는 제3과정으로 이루어지는 것으로, 이와 같은 본 발명의 작용을 첨부한 도 1 및 도 2를 참조하여 상세히 설명하면 다음과 같다.A message management method of a mobile communication terminal according to the present invention includes a first step of receiving a password from a user when the user selects a lock function when receiving a message from a counterpart; Comparing the input password with a pre-stored password and setting a locking flag for the corresponding message and storing the corresponding message in the inbox if it is found to match each other; When the emptying of the inbox or the deletion of some messages because the inbox is full, the message with the lock flag set is a third step of excluding from the deletion object. FIGS. 1 and 2 attached to the operation of the present invention. Detailed description with reference to the following.

상대방으로부터 메시지를 수신받을 때 해당 메시지에 대한 잠금기능을 수행할 것인지의 여부를 타진하기 위해 엘씨디 화면 상에 해당 문구(예: "잠금기능을 설정하시겠습니까?")를 디스플레이하고, 이때, 사용자가 소정의 버튼(예: 확인 버튼)을 이용하여 잠금기능을 선택하면 사용 권한이 있는 사람인지 확인하기 위해 비밀번호를 입력받는다.(SA1-SA3)When receiving a message from the other party, a corresponding phrase (eg, “Do you want to set up a lock function”) is displayed on the LCD screen to determine whether or not to lock the message. If you select the lock function by using button of (ex: confirmation button), you are inputted password to confirm that you are authorized to use. (SA1-SA3)

상기 입력된 비밀번호를 기 저장되어 있는 비밀번호와 비교하여 서로 일치하지 않으면 잠금기능을 사용할 수 없다는 에러문구를 디스플레이하고, 만약 일치하는 경우에는 해당 메시지에 대한 잠금용 플래그를 트루(true:논리값 "1")로 셋팅하여 저장한다.(SA4-SA6)Compare the input password with the previously stored password and display the error message that the lock function cannot be used unless they match each other. If the password is matched, the lock flag for the message is true (true: logical value "1"). Save with "). (SA4-SA6)

수신함에 메시지를 저장한 후 그 메시지 리스트를 화면 상에 디스플레이할 때 상기 과정에 의해 잠금기능이 부여된 메시지에 대해서는 그 사실을 주지시키기 위해 소정(예:자물쇠)의 아이콘을 함께 디스플레이한다.(SA7)When a message is stored in the inbox and the message list is displayed on the screen, a predetermined (e.g., lock) icon is displayed together to remind the fact that the message has been locked by the above procedure. )

한편, 사용자에 의해 수신함 비우기 모드가 선택되면, 그 수신함에 저장되어 있는 메시지들의 잠금용 플래그를 체크하여 폴스(false:논리값 "0")로 되어 있는 메시지들만 삭제 처리한다.(SB1-SB4)On the other hand, when the inbox emptying mode is selected by the user, the lock flag of the messages stored in the inbox is checked to delete only messages having a false value (logical value "0"). (SB1-SB4)

한편, 상기 수신함에 메시지들이 가득차 있어 새로 수신되는 메시지를 저장할 여유 공간이 없는 경우 가장 오래된 메시지를 삭제 처리하되, 그 메시지의 잠금용 플래그가 "1"로 셋팅되어 있으면 그 다음으로 오래된 메시지를 대신 삭제 처리한 후 수신되는 메시지를 저장한다.On the other hand, if the inbox is full of messages and there is no free space for storing newly received messages, the oldest message is deleted. If the lock flag of the message is set to "1", the next oldest message is deleted instead. Save the message received after processing.

상기와 같은 처리과정에 의해 특정 메시지에 부여된 잠금기능을 해제하고자 하는 경우에는 잠금모드에서 해당 메시지를 선택한 후 취소 버튼을 누르면 그 메시지의 잠금용 플래그가 "0"으로 설정되어 잠금기능이 해제된다.If the lock function assigned to a specific message is to be released by the above process, selecting the message in the lock mode and pressing the Cancel button causes the lock flag of the message to be set to "0" to release the lock function. .

이상에서 상세히 설명한 바와 같이 본 발명은 수신된 메시지들 중 계속 보관할 필요가 있는 메시지에 대해서는 잠금기능을 부여할 수 있도록 함으로써, 수신함비우기가 실행되거나 수신함에 새로운 메시지를 저장할 여유공간이 없을 때 그 메시지가 삭제되는 것을 방지할 수 있는 효과가 있다.As described in detail above, the present invention provides a lock function for a message that needs to be kept continuously among the received messages, so that the message is displayed when the inbox is empty or there is no free space to store a new message in the inbox. There is an effect that can be prevented from being deleted.
