In concrete application scenarios, before this step, also comprise following processing:
According to the type that possibly have the program capable of updating firmware of installation kit file in the read-write space, external equipment is confirmed the firmware program list of types.
The firmware program list of types that reaches mentioned herein can be preset in the read-write space; Also can be directly to be stored in the firmware stores space; Enumerated the program various types of capable of updating firmware that in read-write space, possibly occur in this tabulation, external equipment can carry out the poll of the installation kit file of program capable of updating firmware in view of the above and search.
Step S302, external equipment judge whether there is configuration file in the read-write space.
If judging in the read-write space, external equipment has configuration file, then execution in step S303;
If judging, external equipment do not have configuration file, then execution in step S305 in the read-write space.
Step S303, external equipment are judged the version information of the installation kit file of the program capable of updating firmware of whether having carried the type that exists in the configuration file.
If judged result is for being, execution in step S304 then;
If judged result is not, then execution in step S305.
Step S304, external equipment obtain the version information of the version information of existence as the program capable of updating firmware of type in the read-write space in configuration file.
Step S305, external equipment confirm not exist in the read-write space version information of the program capable of updating firmware of one or more types.
It is to be noted; Above-mentioned process can be thought the independent judgment process of the program capable of updating firmware of each classification; Promptly at first search the installation kit program of the program capable of updating firmware that whether has a type in the read-write space, if existence, then query configuration file; And if do not have the installation kit file of the type; Or do not have configuration file, or do not have the version information of the type in the configuration file, then directly confirm not exist in the read-write space version information of the program capable of updating firmware of the type.
Independent judgment process to the program capable of updating firmware of each classification does not make a difference each other.
When there was not version information in program all types of capable of updating firmware cited in the firmware program list of types, external equipment then directly confirmed to have no version information in the read-write space.
There is which version information in mode two, the direct query configuration file; Exist the program capable of updating firmware of version information whether to have the installation kit file in inquiry,, then obtain this version information if exist; The synoptic diagram of concrete treatment scheme is as shown in Figure 4, may further comprise the steps:
Step S401, external equipment judge whether there is configuration file in the read-write space.
If judging in the read-write space, external equipment has configuration file, then execution in step S402;
If judging, external equipment do not have configuration file, then execution in step S404 in the read-write space
Step S402, external equipment judge the installation kit file that whether has corresponding program capable of updating firmware in the read-write space according to the type of the program capable of updating firmware that carries version information in the configuration file.

In concrete application scenarios; Actual comparing respectively of the comparison procedure of this step for release type capable of updating firmware of all categories; In general; Can remain with the installation kit file of the preset version capable of updating firmware of each type in the firmware stores space, in such cases, the version information of the program capable of updating firmware in the version information of the type in the firmware stores space and read-write space compared; Select more highest version as the version of the program capable of updating firmware of the type in the external equipment; And if according to aforesaid step S305 or step S404, external equipment confirms not exist in the read-write space one type program capable of updating firmware, then external equipment is confirmed as the program capable of updating firmware of the type in the firmware stores space program capable of updating firmware of the latest edition of the type in the external equipment.
Under special circumstances; If do not store the installation kit file of certain type program capable of updating firmware in the firmware stores space; Or the installation kit file of the program capable of updating firmware of the preset version of the type of being stored can't normally read; Then external equipment is confirmed as the program capable of updating firmware of the type in the read-write space program capable of updating firmware of the latest edition of the type in the external equipment; If there is not the program capable of updating firmware of the type in the read-write space equally, so, external equipment then confirms self not store the program capable of updating firmware of the type.
On the other hand, it is pointed out that in the processing of this step that if confirmed the program capable of updating firmware of latest edition, then external equipment also need obtain the storage address information of installation kit file of the program capable of updating firmware of latest edition.
Step S203, external equipment judge whether the version of the program capable of updating firmware of latest edition in the external equipment is higher than the version that firmware program has been installed in the terminal device.
If judged result is for being, execution in step S204 then;
If judged result is not, then execution in step S205.
If the program capable of updating firmware of one or more types is not installed in the terminal device, then external equipment confirms that directly above-mentioned judged result is for being.
Step S204, external equipment are installed to the program capable of updating firmware of latest edition in the external equipment in the terminal device.
The concrete processing procedure of this step is: external equipment is according to the storage address information of the installation kit file of the program capable of updating firmware of latest edition; Obtain the installation kit file; And, the program capable of updating firmware of latest edition in the external equipment is installed in the terminal device through operation installation kit file.
Step S205, external equipment are abandoned program capable of updating firmware is installed in terminal device, and directly carry out the firmware program of installation in the terminal device.
Need further be pointed out that; In concrete application scenarios, each above-mentioned operating process can be accomplished by the program Autorun.exe of automatically performing, and Autorun.exe generally is deployed in the firmware stores space; Do not rewritten with assurance by domestic consumer; In practical application, can also be further in read-write space, dispose the backup file of this Autorun.exe, if when the Autorun.exe in the firmware stores space can't move or the firmware stores space goes wrong; Then move the backup file of the Autorun.exe in the read-write space, carry out above-mentioned flow process.Such variation does not influence protection scope of the present invention.
Compared with prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
Through using the technical scheme that the embodiment of the invention proposed; In carrying out the updating firmware program process of external equipment; Directly with firmware program to be upgraded, the mode through copy directly leaves in the read-write zone, through with the firmware stores space in and in the terminal device mounted firmware program version relatively; Be embodied as the purpose of the installing terminal equipment and the firmware program of operation latest edition; The final indirect updating operation that realizes firmware program in the external equipment, thereby, of the dependence of updating firmware program process avoided to producer special AKU software of making and special upgrading tool software; Simplify the flow process of updating operation, improved the convenient degree that the user uses external equipment.
Below, the application scenarios in conjunction with concrete is elaborated to the technical scheme that the embodiment of the invention proposed.
The main thought of the technical scheme that this inventive embodiments proposed is based on the inner Flash storage space of present most of external equipment (for example: data card, digital equipment etc.) can be divided into firmware stores space (firmware program space) and read-write space (user's space) two parts basically, and the partition structure synoptic diagram of storage space is as shown in Figure 5.
Wherein, the firmware stores space mainly is to be used for depositing automatic running program, client-side program, driver, and other programs capable of updating firmware; This subprogram is dispatched from the factory and is preset; Common mode can not write, and has only and utilizes special tool software, just can write.Upgrading is exactly the firmware program (by producer's making, domestic consumer can't make) that will obtain from producer, utilizes special upgrading tool, writes the process in firmware stores space.Read-write space then is to belong to the readable storage space of writing of user in the external equipment, is generally invented a USB flash disk and supplies the user to use.
Structure setting according to above-mentioned storage space; The key point of the technical scheme that the embodiment of the invention proposed is; Utilize read-write space to be regarded the ability that USB flash disk is read and write by the user; With client-side program, the driver of redaction, and other programs capable of updating firmware copy in the virtual USB flash disk (read-write space), utilize the automatic running program (Autorun.exe) in the firmware stores space; The client-side program of the latest edition of run user copy or driver or other firmware programs, thus reach the effect identical with former updating operation.
And; This scheme is not destroyed existing client end program, driver and other programs capable of updating firmware in the external equipment; The user only need delete the file in the virtual USB disk (read-write space), promptly can realize continuing to use the process (being equivalent to degradation) of early version (version in the firmware stores space) operation external equipment.
Further, because the kind of the program capable of updating firmware in the read-write space is a kind of incessantly, therefore, this programme has proposed corresponding directory design scheme in read-write space.
For the ease of redaction client-side program or driver or other firmware programs in can the read-write space of trouble-free operation of the automatic running program in the firmware stores space,, set up bibliographic structure as shown in Figure 2 for read-write space.
This bibliographic structure specifically comprises configuration file, client-side program, driver; And the sub-directory of other programs capable of updating firmware; In the application scenarios of reality; The title of the file that is comprised in the kind of sub-directory, quantity, naming rule and each sub-directory all can be adjusted as required, and no matter what final adjustment result is, as long as according to preset rule; This sub-directory can be called by the automatic running program in the firmware stores space and get final product, and such variation does not influence protection scope of the present invention.
As shown in Figure 6, for the design of the bibliographic structure in the read-write space in a kind of concrete application scenarios of embodiment of the invention proposition,, in this scene, only comprise client-side program and driver in the firmware program for describing conveniently.This bibliographic structure comprises Config.ini (configuration file), Driver (driver sub-directory) and APP (client-side program sub-directory).
Wherein, the Config.ini file mainly is used for preserving the version number of client-side program in the read-write space and driver, and the concrete example of its file content is following:
[APP]
Version＝3.2.2.60
[Driver]
Version＝1.1.1.9
Mainly deposit the recent driver of external equipment in the Driver sub-directory, wherein Install.exe is a driver installation kit file.
Mainly deposit the up-to-date client application of external equipment in the APP sub-directory, wherein Setup.exe is a client-side program installation kit file.
Certainly, can also continue to increase sub-directory quantity, thereby, also set up corresponding subdirectory structure for the program capable of updating firmware of other types, such variation belongs to protection scope of the present invention equally.
Corresponding, as shown in Figure 7 with the structure in above-mentioned read-write space shown in Figure 6, the structural representation in the firmware stores space that provides for the embodiment of the invention comprises client-side program, driver, automatic running program (Autorun.exe) respectively.
Wherein, client-side program and driver are the client-side program of preset version and the installation kit file of driver, and concrete version is by the dispatch from the factory configuration and the follow-up specialization upgrading decision of this external equipment.
Equally, if the quantity of the program capable of updating firmware of this external equipment further increases, then also need corresponding the continuation to increase the program stored type in the firmware stores space, but the quantity of automatic running program can't increase.
Can know to the described technical scheme of step S205 through aforesaid step S201; Read-write space is being carried out in the version information process of reading; Can there be two kinds of different version informations to obtain scheme; Based on the structure in the bibliographic structure in above-mentioned read-write space shown in Figure 6 and firmware stores space shown in Figure 7, obtain scheme according to two kinds of version informations respectively the technical scheme that the embodiment of the invention proposed is further specified.
At first, the mode one among the corresponding step S201, as shown in Figure 8, the schematic flow sheet for the disposal route of the firmware program under a kind of concrete application scenarios that the embodiment of the invention proposed may further comprise the steps:
Step S801, external equipment are connected to terminal device.
For example; Printer is connected to computer equipment through data line; Or data card inserts the card reading slot or the USB interface of notebook; Mobile phone is connected to hand-held intelligent terminal through bluetooth, and in concrete application scenarios, the type of the equipment of connection and the variation of connected mode can't influence the protection domain of the technical scheme that the embodiment of the invention proposes.
After connect accomplishing, the Autorun.exe file in the firmware stores space of external equipment is operation automatically, simultaneously or according to preset order execution in step S802 and step S804, wherein, execution sequence can be adjusted according to actual needs.
The reason of handling like this is that external equipment confirms that the current program capable of updating firmware that self possibly exist has only two kinds of driver and client-side program; And if external equipment then can further increase corresponding treatment step when confirming also possibly to exist the program capable of updating firmware of other types.
In the application scenarios of reality, the foundation of above-mentioned definite number of types can be aforesaid firmware program list of types, perhaps other forms of type information.
Step S802, Autorun.exe judge whether there is the Driver sub-directory in the read-write space.
If exist, then execution in step S803;
If do not exist, execution in step S810 then.
Step S803, Autorun.exe judge whether there is the Install.exe file under the Driver sub-directory.
If exist, then execution in step S806;
If do not exist, execution in step S810 then.
Step S804, Autorun.exe judge whether there is the APP sub-directory in the read-write space.
If exist, then execution in step S805;
If do not exist, execution in step S810 then.
Step S805, Autorun.exe judge whether there is the Setup.exe file under the APP sub-directory.
If exist, then execution in step S806;
If do not exist, execution in step S810 then.
Step S806, Autorun.exe judge whether there is the Config.ini file in the read-write space.
If exist, then execution in step S807;
If do not exist, execution in step S810 then.
Step S807, Autorun.exe judge whether there is corresponding version information in the Config.ini file.
If exist, then execution in step S808;
If do not exist, execution in step S810 then.
Step S808, Autorun.exe obtain corresponding version information in the Config.ini file in read-write space.
The version information of all types of program capable of updating firmware that step S809, Autorun.exe will obtain in the Config.ini file respectively with the firmware stores space in the version information of program capable of updating firmware of respective type compare, and will wherein higher version information confirm as the version information of the program capable of updating firmware of the type in the external equipment.
Step S810, Autorun.exe confirm not exist in the read-write space version information of the program capable of updating firmware of respective type.
Step S811, Autorun.exe confirm as the version information of the program capable of updating firmware of respective type in the firmware stores space version information of the program capable of updating firmware of the type in the external equipment.
When Autorun.exe has confirmed in the external equipment behind the version information of all types of programs capable of updating firmware execution in step S812 through step S809 and/or step S811.
Certainly; Scene needs according to reality; After also can being set at Autorun.exe confirmed in the external equipment one type through step S809 or step S811 the version information of program capable of updating firmware, to the program execution in step S812 capable of updating firmware of the type.
More than the difference of two kinds of processing modes be that a kind of is that all types of programs capable of updating firmware is carried out synchronous processing; Another kind of then be according to the information in the Config.ini file; Program capable of updating firmware to the respective type that wherein exists is carried out synchronous processing; The treatment progress of all types of programs capable of updating firmware is independent of each other each other, according to the needs of reality, can select any one above-mentioned processing mode to use.
Step S812, Autorun.exe judge respectively whether all types of programs capable of updating firmware has been installed in the terminal device.
If Autorun.exe judges the program capable of updating firmware that one or more types are not installed in the terminal device, then to the program capable of updating firmware of respective type, direct execution in step S815;
If Autorun.exe judges the program capable of updating firmware that one or more types have been installed in the terminal device, then be directed against the program capable of updating firmware of respective type, execution in step S813.
Step S813, Autorun.exe obtain the version information of mounted all types of program capable of updating firmware in the terminal device.
Step S814, Autorun.exe compare the version information of respective type in the version information of mounted all types of program capable of updating firmware in the terminal device and the external equipment, judge whether the version information in the external equipment is higher version.
If judged result is for being, execution in step S815 then;
If judged result is not, then execution in step S816.
The installation kit file of the program capable of updating firmware of the type carries out the upgrading of this program capable of updating firmware in step S815, the Autorun.exe operation external equipment.
Step S816, Autorun.exe start mounted program capable of updating firmware in the terminal device.
In order more clearly to describe said process, make following hypothesis at present:
The driver version of being stored in A, the firmware stores space is 1.0, and the client-side program version is 2.0;
There is not the installation kit file (Install.exe) of driver in B, the read-write space, but has the installation kit file (Setup.exe) of the client-side program of 2.5 versions, comprise the configuration file (Config.ini) of client-side program version information (2.5 version);
The driver of 1.5 versions has been installed on C, the terminal device, but client-side program has not been installed.
According to above-mentioned scene, the treatment scheme of aforesaid step S801～step S816 is described.
External equipment is connected with terminal device, the Autorun.exe operation in firmware stores space.
(1) carries out the inner version of external equipment relatively.
Autorun.exe does not find Install.exe in read-write space; So; Directly confirm not have in the read-write space driver of redaction, thereby, according to the driver version in the firmware stores space (1.0 version); The version of confirming driver in the external equipment is 1.0 versions, and this version drive program is present in the firmware stores space.
Simultaneously; Autorun.exe finds Setup.exe in read-write space, and in Config.ini, has found client-side program version information (2.5 version), through with the firmware stores space in client-side program version information (2.0 version) relatively; Confirm that the client-side program version information in the read-write space is higher; Therefore, the version of confirming client-side program in the external equipment is 2.5 versions, and this version drive program is present in the read-write space.
