The electronic device 100 can implement audio functions through the audio module 170, the speaker 170A, the receiver 170B, the microphone 170C, the earphone interface 170D, and the application processor. For example, music playback, recording, etc.

The sensor module 180 may include a pressure sensor 180A, a gyroscope sensor 180B, an air pressure sensor 180C, a magnetic sensor 180D, an acceleration sensor 180E, a distance sensor 180F, a proximity light sensor 180G, a fingerprint sensor 180H, a temperature sensor 180J, a touch sensor 180K, and an ambient light sensor 180L, bone conduction sensor 180M, etc.

Among them, the pressure sensor 180A is used to sense a pressure signal, and can convert the pressure signal into an electrical signal. In some embodiments, the pressure sensor 180A may be provided on the display screen 194. There are many types of pressure sensors 180A, such as resistive pressure sensors, inductive pressure sensors, capacitive pressure sensors and so on. The capacitive pressure sensor may include at least two parallel plates with conductive material. When a force is applied to the pressure sensor 180A, the capacitance between the electrodes changes. The electronic device 100 determines the intensity of the pressure according to the change in capacitance. When a touch operation acts on the display screen 194, the electronic device 100 detects the intensity of the touch operation according to the pressure sensor 180A. The electronic device 100 may also calculate the touched position according to the detection signal of the pressure sensor 180A. In some embodiments, touch operations that act on the same touch position but have different touch operation strengths may correspond to different operation instructions. For example, when a touch operation whose intensity of the touch operation is less than the first pressure threshold is applied to the short message application icon, an instruction to view the short message is executed. When a touch operation with a touch operation intensity greater than or equal to the first pressure threshold acts on the short message application icon, an instruction to create a new short message is executed.

The gyro sensor 180B may be used to determine the movement posture of the electronic device 100. In some embodiments, the angular velocity of the electronic device 100 around three axes (ie, X, Y, and Z axes) can be determined by the gyro sensor 180B. The gyro sensor 180B can be used for image stabilization. Exemplarily, when the shutter is pressed, the gyro sensor 180B detects the shake angle of the electronic device 100, calculates the distance that the lens module needs to compensate according to the angle, and allows the lens to counteract the shake of the electronic device 100 through reverse movement to achieve anti-shake. The gyro sensor 180B can also be used for navigation and somatosensory game scenes.

The acceleration sensor 180E can detect the magnitude of the acceleration of the electronic device 100 in various directions (generally three axes).

The fingerprint sensor 180H is used to collect fingerprints. The electronic device 100 can use the collected fingerprint characteristics to realize fingerprint unlocking, access application locks, fingerprint photographs, fingerprint answering calls, and so on.

The temperature sensor 180J is used to detect temperature. In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 uses the temperature detected by the temperature sensor 180J to execute a temperature processing strategy. For example, when the temperature reported by the temperature sensor 180J exceeds a threshold value, the electronic device 100 reduces the performance of the processor located near the temperature sensor 180J, so as to reduce power consumption and implement thermal protection. In other embodiments, when the temperature is lower than another threshold, the electronic device 100 heats the battery 142 to avoid abnormal shutdown of the electronic device 100 due to low temperature. In some other embodiments, when the temperature is lower than another threshold, the electronic device 100 boosts the output voltage of the battery 142 to avoid abnormal shutdown caused by low temperature.

FIG. 2 is a software structure block diagram of the electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the present application. The layered architecture divides the software into several layers, and each layer has a clear role and division of labor. Communication between layers through software interface. In some embodiments, the Android system is divided into four layers, from top to bottom, the application layer, the application framework layer, the Android runtime and the system library. As shown in Figure 2, each layer in the software architecture can call the hardware layer, and the hardware layer can include multiple pieces of hardware in Figure 1.

The application layer can include a series of application packages. As shown in Figure 2, the application package may include applications such as music playback, video playback, reading applications, application market, gallery, calendar, call, map, and navigation.

The application framework layer provides application programming interfaces (application programming interface, API) and programming frameworks for applications at the application layer. The application framework layer includes some predefined functions. As shown in Figure 2, the application framework layer can include a window manager, a content provider, a view system, a phone manager, a resource manager, and a notification manager. The window manager is used to manage window programs. The window manager can obtain the size of the display, determine whether there is a status bar, lock the screen, take a screenshot, etc. The content provider is used to store and retrieve data, and make these data accessible to applications. The data may include videos, images, audios, phone calls made and received, browsing history and bookmarks, phone book, etc. The view system includes visual controls, such as controls that display text, controls that display pictures, and so on. The view system can be used to build applications. The display interface can be composed of one or more views. For example, a display interface that includes a short message notification icon may include a view that displays text and a view that displays pictures. The phone manager is used to provide the communication function of the electronic device 100. For example, the management of the call status (including connecting, hanging up, etc.). The resource manager provides various resources for the application, such as localized strings, icons, pictures, layout files, video files, and so on. The notification manager allows the application to display notification information in the status bar, which can be used to convey notification-type messages, and it can automatically disappear after a short stay without user interaction. For example, the notification manager is used to notify download completion, message reminders, and so on. The notification manager can also be a notification that appears in the status bar at the top of the system in the form of a chart or a scroll bar text, such as a notification of an application running in the background, or a notification that appears on the screen in the form of a dialog window. For example, text messages are prompted in the status bar, prompt sounds, electronic devices vibrate, and indicator lights flash.

Android Runtime includes core libraries and virtual machines. Android runtime is responsible for the scheduling and management of the Android system. The core library consists of two parts: one part is the function functions that the java language needs to call, and the other part is the core library of Android. The application layer and the application framework layer run in a virtual machine. The virtual machine executes the java files of the application layer and the application framework layer as binary files. The virtual machine is used to perform functions such as object life cycle management, stack management, thread management, security and exception management, and garbage collection.

The system library can include multiple functional modules. For example: surface manager (surface manager), media library (media libraries), 3D graphics processing library (for example: OpenGL ES), 2D graphics engine (for example: SGL), etc. The surface manager is used to manage the display subsystem and provides a combination of 2D and 3D layers for multiple applications. The media library supports playback and recording of a variety of commonly used audio and video formats, as well as still image files. The media library can support a variety of audio and video encoding formats, such as: MPEG4, H.264, MP3, AAC, AMR, JPG, PNG, etc. The 3D graphics processing library is used to realize 3D graphics drawing, image rendering, synthesis, and layer processing. The 2D graphics engine is a drawing engine for 2D drawing.

The hardware layer may include multiple hardware, such as the display screen 194, the camera 193, the audio module 170, and the sensor module in FIG. 1, where the sensor module may include, for example, the gyroscope sensor 180B, the fingerprint sensor 180H, etc. in FIG. The application layer, the application framework layer, the Android runtime and the system library can all call the hardware in the hardware layer by calling the hardware interface. For example, the application layer calls the display screen 194 by calling the display interface.

A hardware interface layer may also be included between the system layer and the hardware layer, and the hardware interface layer includes multiple interfaces for driving the hardware. For example, the interface that drives the display screen, the interface that drives the camera, the interface that drives the audio module, the interface that drives the gyroscope sensor, the interface that drives the fingerprint sensor, and so on.

When the processor or chip inside the electronic device reads the code of the application in the application layer, it can call the hardware interface to drive the hardware in the hardware layer and perform corresponding operations.

In an example, the antenna used for mobile communication can be driven by calling the mobile communication interface, and the uplink and downlink communication data can be transmitted through the antenna used for mobile communication. For example, when the processor or chip is running the call application, it can read the code in the call application, so that the mobile communication interface can be called, and the voice call function can be realized by driving the antenna for mobile communication.

In an example, the display screen can be driven by calling the screen display interface, and images can be displayed on the display screen. For example, when the processor or chip is running a video playback application, it can read the code in the video playback application, so that it can call the screen display interface and play the video on the display screen.

In one example, the speaker can be driven by calling the speaker interface, and sound can be played through the speaker; or, the earphone (connected externally) can be driven by calling the earphone interface, and the sound can be played through the earphone. For example, when the processor or chip is running an audio playback application, it can read the code in the audio playback application, so that it can call the speaker interface and play audio files through the speaker, or it can call the headphone interface and pass the (externally connected) The headset plays audio files.

In an example, the fingerprint identification module can be driven by calling the fingerprint identification interface, and the fingerprint can be identified by the fingerprint identification module. For example, when the processor or chip is running a security application, it can read the code in the security application, so that the fingerprint identification interface can be called, and when the fingerprint fed back by the fingerprint identification module matches the preset fingerprint information, the current electronic device's The operation is safe.

In an example, a global positioning system (GPS) antenna can be driven by calling a position positioning interface, and the current position of the electronic device can be determined through the GPS antenna. For example, when the processor or chip is running a map navigation application, it can read the code in the map navigation application, so that the positioning interface can be called, and the driving route can be planned through the positioning information fed back by the GPS antenna.

In an example, the Bluetooth antenna can be driven by calling the wireless communication interface, and data can be received from other electronic devices through the Bluetooth antenna, or data can be sent to other electronic devices. For example, when the processor or chip is running a file transfer application, it can read the code in the file transfer application, so that it can call the wireless communication interface, and send a file to or receive a file from a neighboring electronic device through a Bluetooth antenna. document.

In one example, the camera can be driven by calling the shooting interface, and an image or video can be captured by the camera. For example, when the processor or the chip is running the shooting application, it can read the code in the shooting application, so that the front-facing shooting interface can be called, and a portrait can be taken through the front-facing camera.

Figure 3 shows the schematic diagram of the development software for two different types of equipment. The types of devices in FIG. 3 may include, for example, mobile phones, tablet computers, wearable electronic devices with wireless communication functions (such as smart watches), video player desktop computers, TVs, notebook computers, and so on. For example, the first device in FIG. 3 may be a mobile phone, and the second device may be a TV.

The hardware interface one of device one can call hardware one. The hardware interface two of the device two can call the hardware two. However, due to various reasons (for example, the hardware of different devices is usually from different hardware manufacturers, or the design schemes for hardware interfaces of different electronic devices are different), the hardware interface one is different from the hardware interface two, so the same program cannot be used. Implement the call of hardware interface one, and implement the call of hardware interface two. For example, both the mobile phone’s display screen and the TV’s screen can be used to play videos and display pictures. However, the mobile phone’s display screen and the TV’s screen can be produced by different screen manufacturers, so the interface of the mobile phone’s display screen is different from that of the TV screen. That is, the same program cannot be used to call the interface of the mobile phone display screen and the interface of the TV screen as well.

The system software is usually a program installed and loaded on the electronic device by the device manufacturer before the electronic device leaves the factory. Since the hardware interface one of the device one is different from the hardware interface two of the device two, the system software of the device one is different from the system software of the device two.

In order to facilitate application developers, device manufacturers usually open software development kits (SDK) to application developers to facilitate application developers to develop application software for device types. Among them, the SDK contains the code to quickly call the hardware interface. Since the hardware interface 1 of the device one is different from the hardware interface two of the device two, the SDK of the device one is different from the SDK of the device two.

Suppose an application developer wants to develop a set of applications, such as video playback software, map navigation software, call software, system applications, etc. In order to implement the functions of this set of applications on both device one and device two (as shown in Figure 3), it is necessary to develop two different applications of the same type for device one and device two respectively. For example, video playback software 1 for mobile phones, and video playback software 2 for TVs. Wherein, the two different applications of the same type may refer to that the two applications may include application one for device one and application two for device two, and the functions of application one and application two are the same or the main functions are the same; but When implementing the same function or the same main function, the code, interface and/or function used by application one and application two are different, so application one usually cannot be applied to device two, and application two usually cannot be applied to device First, application one and application two are two different applications.

Application developers usually hope that most users can use the applications developed by the application developers. Therefore, application developers must take into account the mainstream devices on the market and design application packages for multiple types of devices. This application provides a method aimed at improving the convenience of application development.

Fig. 4 is a schematic flowchart of a method for invoking a hardware interface provided by an embodiment of the application.

401. Read first indication information in a code of a first application, where the first indication information is used to indicate related information of a first hardware interface set, where the first hardware interface set includes hardware interfaces of multiple electronic devices. The types of any two hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are the same, or part or all of the functions of any two hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are the same.

In this application, the first application may be, for example, a call application, a video playback application, an audio playback application, a security application, a map navigation application, a file transfer application, a shooting application, and so on. The first application may also include music playback, video playback, reading application, application market, gallery, calendar, call, map, navigation, etc. This application does not limit the specific type of the first application.

The first set of hardware interfaces includes hardware interfaces of multiple electronic devices. The types of the multiple electronic devices may include, for example, mobile phones, tablets, smart watches, video players, laptops, desktop computers, TVs, and notebooks. At least two of the computers.

It should be understood that when the first application calls the hardware interface, the hardware may be driven by code. Therefore, the first set of hardware interfaces may be stored in the processor or memory in the form of code. The hardware interface can implement hardware calls through code, so the code can be used to define the hardware interface. For example, in the Android system, a hardware interface definition language (HDL) can be used to define a hardware interface. For another example, HIDL language can be used to call java format code to implement the call of the hardware interface.

The electronic device may include a software module or a hard-wired module for identifying the type of the device. For example, the electronic device can use the version number, model, etc. of the electronic device to call the hardware of the electronic device.

Under normal circumstances, different types of electronic devices have different hardware interfaces. For example, the hardware interface of a mobile phone is different from that of a watch, and the hardware interface of a watch is different from that of a TV. The hardware interface is different from the hardware interface of the TV.

The hardware interfaces of different electronic devices of the same type may be the same or different. For example, two mobile phones with the same version number may have the same hardware interfaces, and two mobile phones with the same version number may have different hardware interfaces.

The electronic device can identify the type of the chip, so as to call the hardware including the chip, or determine the hardware interface of the hardware including the chip. For another example, the electronic device can identify the version number or model of the hardware to determine whether to call the hardware or determine the hardware interface of the hardware.

In an example, any two hardware interfaces in the first set of hardware interfaces are of the same type. For example, all the hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are mobile communication interfaces. For another example, all hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are screen display interfaces. For another example, all the hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are speaker interfaces. In another example, all the hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are earphone interfaces. For another example, all hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are fingerprint identification interfaces. For another example, all hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are positioning interfaces. For another example, all hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are wireless communication interfaces. In another example, all hardware interfaces in the first set of hardware interfaces are shooting interfaces.

In the case that any two hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are of the same type, the type of the first hardware interface set is the same as the type of any hardware interface in the first hardware interface set. For example, all hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are mobile communication interfaces, and the type of the first hardware interface set may be mobile communication interfaces.

Part of the functions of any two hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are the same. For example, all hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used for voice calls, and due to different mobile communication standards, the first part of the hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used in global system for mobile communications, GSM) system, the second part of the hardware interface in the first set of hardware interfaces can work in the global system for mobile communications (GSM) system, or in code division multiple access , CDMA) system. For another example, all hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used for Bluetooth file transfer, and due to different wireless communication standards, the first part of the hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used to drive Bluetooth 2.0. The second part of the hardware interface set can be used to drive Bluetooth 4.0. For another example, all hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used to play audio, and the interfaces used to play audio include a speaker interface for driving speakers and a headphone interface for driving headphones. Therefore, the first hardware interface The first part of the hardware interface in the set can be used to drive speakers, and the second part of the hardware interface can be used to drive headphones. For another example, all the hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used for video input, while the high definition multimedia interface (HDMI) can be used for audio input and video input, and the video graphics array (video graphics array, The VGA) interface is only used for video input. Therefore, the first part of the hardware interface in the first hardware interface set can be the interface only for video input, and the second part of the hardware interface can be used for both audio input and video input. interface. For another example, all the hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used to capture images or videos, and the cameras are divided into front cameras and rear cameras, so the first part of the hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used for Drive the front camera, the second part of the hardware interface can be used to drive the rear camera.

In the case where the partial functions of any two hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are the same, the function of the first hardware interface set includes the function of any hardware interface in the first hardware interface set. For example, all hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used for voice calls, and the functions of the first hardware interface set include voice calls.

All functions of any two hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are the same. For example, all the hardware interfaces in the first set of hardware interfaces can be used for voice calls, and all can work in the global system for mobile communications (GSM) system, or in code division multiple access (code division multiple access). Division multiple access (CDMA) system works, and all functions implemented by any hardware interface in the first hardware interface set can also be implemented by other hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set. For another example, all hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used to drive Bluetooth 4.0. For another example, all the hardware interfaces in the first set of hardware interfaces can be used to play audio, and all of them can be used to drive headphones. For another example, all the hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used for video input, and all can be used for audio input. For another example, all the hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used to capture images or videos, and all are used to drive the front camera.

In the case where all the functions of any two hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set are the same, the function of the first hardware interface set is the same as the function of any hardware interface in the first hardware interface set. For example, all hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set can be used for voice calls, and the function of the first hardware interface set is voice calls.

Generally, any two hardware interfaces are of the same type, and the functions that can be implemented by the any two hardware interfaces are usually the same or similar.

The first set of hardware interfaces may include multiple hardware interfaces of a certain type of electronic device. For example, the electronic device includes a front camera and a rear camera, and the first set of hardware interfaces may include a hardware interface 1 for driving the front camera and a hardware interface 2 for driving the rear camera. For another example, the electronic device includes multiple multimedia transmission interfaces, which are respectively used to support different multimedia transmission standards (such as HDMI and VGA).

Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of the hardware interfaces in the first set of hardware interfaces. The first set of hardware interfaces includes hardware interface 1, hardware interface 2, hardware interface 3, and hardware interface 4. Among them, the hardware interface 1 and the hardware interface 2 are hardware interfaces of the electronic device 501. The hardware interface 3 is a hardware interface of the electronic device 502. The hardware interface 3 and the hardware interface 4 are hardware interfaces of the electronic device 503.

It can be seen that the hardware interfaces of different electronic devices can be the same. For example, mobile phone 1 with version number 1 uses hardware 1, mobile phone 2 with version number 2 uses hardware 2, hardware 1 and hardware 2 are from the same hardware manufacturer, and hardware 1 and hardware 2 are the same type of hardware. Therefore, the mobile phone 1 and the mobile phone 2 may have the same hardware interface.

According to the above description, the first set of hardware interfaces may include multiple hardware interfaces of the same type, and include hardware interfaces of multiple electronic devices. Taking FIG. 5 as an example, the hardware interface 1, the hardware interface 2, the hardware interface 3, and the hardware interface 4 may all be shooting interfaces. The electronic device 501 may be a mobile phone, the electronic device 502 may be a watch, and the electronic device 503 may be a tablet computer. The hardware interface 1 of the electronic device 501 may be a shooting interface for calling a front camera, and the hardware interface 2 of the electronic device 501 may be a shooting interface for calling a rear camera. The hardware interface 3 of the electronic device 503 may be a shooting interface for calling a front camera, and the hardware interface 4 of the electronic device 503 may be a shooting interface for calling a rear camera. The hardware interface 3 of the electronic device 502 is the same as the hardware interface 3 of the electronic device 503. Similarly, according to the above description, the first set of hardware interfaces may include a plurality of hardware interfaces with part or all of the same functions, and include hardware interfaces of a plurality of electronic devices.

Optionally, the first indication information includes information indicating a second hardware interface, and the electronic device does not have the second hardware interface, and the first hardware interface is collected from the first hardware interface according to the first indication information. Before determining at least one first hardware interface possessed by the electronic device, the method further includes: determining, according to the first indication information, the set of hardware interfaces to which the second hardware interface belongs as the first hardware interface set.

The electronic device may store related information of the first hardware interface set, and the related information includes the identification of the first hardware interface set and the information of multiple hardware interfaces in the first hardware interface set (such as the identification of each hardware interface, the call parameter Etc.), the multiple hardware interfaces include the second hardware interface. For example, the identification of the first hardware interface set shown in FIG. 5, and the identification of hardware interface 1, the identification of hardware interface 2, the identification of hardware interface 3, the identification of hardware interface 4, and the identification of the first hardware interface set can be saved, respectively. Correspondence between hardware interface 1, hardware interface 2, hardware interface 3, and hardware interface 4. When the electronic device 501 reads the first instruction information in the code of the first application, and the first instruction information indicates the hardware interface 3 in FIG. 5, since the electronic device 501 does not have the hardware interface 3, the electronic device 501 cannot call the hardware Interface 3, and the electronic device 501 can determine that there is a correspondence between the hardware interface 3 and the first hardware interface set according to the first indication information and the related information of the first hardware interface set, so as to determine the first hardware interface set.

Figure 6 shows a schematic diagram of a set of multiple hardware interfaces. The electronic device may store related information of multiple hardware interface sets, and the multiple hardware interface sets include the hardware interface set 601 and the hardware interface set 602 shown in FIG. 6.

In an example, the type of the hardware interface set 601 is type 1, and the type of the hardware interface set 602 is type 2.

The first indication information includes information indicating the first type of the hardware interface that the first application needs to call. According to the first indication information, it is determined from the first hardware interface set that the electronic device has at least Before a first hardware interface, the method further includes: determining, according to the first indication information, a set of hardware interfaces matching the first type as the first hardware interface set.

The first hardware interface set matches the first type, and a possible situation is that the type of the first hardware interface set is the first type. The type of the hardware interface set has been described in detail above, and will not be repeated here.

Another possible situation is that the function of the first hardware interface set is the same or similar to the function implemented by the first type.

For example, the type indicated by the first indication information is a mobile communication interface, the function of the first hardware interface set includes a voice call function, and the mobile communication interface can also implement the voice call function, so the first hardware interface set matches the first type .

For another example, the type indicated by the first indication information is a screen display interface, and the functions of the first set of hardware interfaces include the function of displaying images on the screen, and the screen display interface can also realize the function of displaying images on the screen. A set of hardware interfaces matches the first type.

For another example, the type indicated by the first indication information is a speaker interface, the function of the first hardware interface set includes a sound playback function, and the speaker interface can also implement the sound playback function, so the first hardware interface set matches the first type.

For another example, the type indicated by the first indication information is a headphone interface, the function of the first hardware interface set includes a sound playing function, and the headphone interface can also implement the sound playing function, so the first hardware interface set matches the first type.

For another example, the type indicated by the first indication information is a fingerprint identification interface, and the function of the first hardware interface set includes a fingerprint identification function, and the fingerprint identification interface can also implement the fingerprint identification function. Therefore, the first hardware interface set and the first type match.

For another example, the type indicated by the first indication information is a positioning interface, the function of the first hardware interface set includes a positioning function, and the positioning interface can also implement the positioning function, so the first hardware interface set matches the first type.
