Abstract
Abstract A method of packaging service logic programs for dissemination in a telecommunications network includes receiving a request to package a service logic program having a plurality of service independent blocks associated with a plurality of parameters. The service logic program is copied and parsed to automatically identify the parameters associated with the service logic program. The service independent blocks of the service logic program are stored in a packaging file in a specified sequence. The associated parameters are copied and then stored in the packaging file.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim
95 words
A method of packaging a service logic program for dissemination in a telecommunications network, comprising the steps of: receiving a request to package a service logic program having a plurality of service independent blocks associated with a plurality of parameters; copying the service logic program; automatically identifying the parameters associated with the service logic program by parsing the service logic program; automatically storing the service independent blocks of the service logic program in a packaging file in a specified sequence; automatically copying the associated parameters; and automatically storing the associated parameters in the packaging file.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
95 words
A method of packaging a service logic program for dissemination in a telecommunications network, comprising the steps of: receiving a request to package a service logic program having a plurality of service independent blocks associated with a plurality of parameters; copying the service logic program; automatically identifying the parameters associated with the service logic program by parsing the service logic program; automatically storing the service independent blocks of the service logic program in a packaging file in a specified sequence; automatically copying the associated parameters; and automatically storing the associated parameters in the packaging file.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
61 words
The method of claim 1, wherein service independent blocks are associated with a plurality of subroutines, further comprising the steps of: automatically identifying the subroutines associated with the service logic program by parsing the service logic program; automatically copying the associated subroutines; and automatically storing the associated subroutines in the packaging file with the service independent blocks in the specified sequence.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
26 words
The method of claim 1, wherein the associated parameters are from a group of parameters comprising stored procedures, data templates, global variables, peg counters and prompts.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
39 words
The method of claim 3, if the associated parameters include a stored procedure, further comprising the steps of: automatically copying the stored procedure from a predefined stored procedure file; and automatically storing the stored procedure in the packaging file.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
39 words
The method of claim 3, if the associated parameters include a data template, further comprising the steps of: automatically copying the data template from a predefined data template file; and automatically storing the data template in the packaging file.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
36 words
The method of claim 3, if the associated parameters include a global variable, further comprising the steps of: automatically copying the global variable from a database; and automatically storing the global variable in the packaging file.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
36 words
The method of claim 3, if the associated parameters include a peg counter, further comprising the steps of: automatically copying the peg counter from a database; and automatically storing the peg counter in the packaging file.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
33 words
The method of claim 3, if the associated parameters include a prompt, further comprising the steps of: automatically copying the prompt from a database; and automatically storing the prompt in the packaging file.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
160 words
The method of claim 1, wherein the associated parameters are from a group of parameters comprising stored procedures, data templates, global variables, peg counters and prompts, further comprising the steps of: if the associated parameters include a stored procedure: automatically copying the stored procedure from a predefined stored procedure file; automatically storing the stored procedure in the packaging file; if the associated parameters include a data template: automatically copying the data template from a predefined data template file; automatically storing the data template in the packaging file; if the associated parameters include a global variable: automatically copying the global variable from a database; automatically storing the global variable in the packaging file; if the associated parameters include a peg counter: automatically copying the peg counter from the database; automatically storing the peg counter in the packaging file; if the associated parameters include a prompt: automatically copying the prompt from the database; and automatically storing the prompt in the packaging file.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
27 words
The method of claim 1, further comprising the steps of: storing a location of the service logic programs; and copying the service logic programs from the location.
