Application control method and apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium

An electronic device that runs a native application and a sub-application nested in the native application, comprising a processor and a memory, the memory storing program code, the program code, when executed by the processor, causing the electronic device to perform an application control method including:

• receiving, by the native application, an object creation instruction transmitted by the sub-application;
• in response to the object creation instruction, creating, by the native application, a native object, wherein the native object is configured for performing operation on target multimedia content in the sub-application;
• receiving, by the native application, an object calling instruction transmitted by the sub-application;
• and
• in response to the object calling instruction, executing, by the native application, the native object and returning an execution result of the native project to the sub-application, wherein the sub-application is configured for performing corresponding operation on target multimedia content according to the execution result;
• wherein the creating, by the native application, a native object comprises:
• selecting a target API to be called to create the native object from a pre-configured application programming interface API set, wherein APIs in the API set are associated with audio and video editing capability of the sub-application;
• and
• calling the target API to create the native object.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, comprising program code, the program code, when executed by a processor of an electronic device that runs a native application and a sub-application nested in the native application, causing the electronic device to perform an application control method including:

• receiving, by the native application, an object creation instruction transmitted by the sub-application;
• in response to the object creation instruction, creating, by the native application, a native object, wherein the native object is configured for performing operation on target multimedia content in the sub-application;
• receiving, by the native application, an object calling instruction transmitted by the sub-application;
• and
• in response to the object calling instruction, executing, by the native application, the native object and returning an execution result of the native project to the sub-application, wherein the sub-application is configured for performing corresponding operation on target multimedia content according to the execution result;
• wherein the creating, by the native application, a native object comprises:
• selecting a target API to be called to create the native object from a pre-configured application programming interface API set, wherein APIs in the API set are associated with audio and video editing capability of the sub-application;
