Title Body

I would like to implement communication between webworkers. I read the W3C documentation and I found MessageChannel is one of the ways to do it, but while reading MessageChannel I couldn't understand how to implement communication between workers using messagechannel. I got this from MSDN http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-in/library/ie/hh673525(v=vs.85).aspx Here is also no proper documentation to do it. I need to know, how can I communicate webworkers using MessageChannel? Here is the Demo throwing DATA_CLONE_ERR var worker = new Worker("sub1_worker.js"); worker.onmessage = function(e) { $("#log").append("<br>" + e.data); } var channel = new MessageChannel(); worker.postMessage("ping", [channel.port2]); channel.port1.onmessage = function(event) { // Message is in event.data alert("Message is: " + event.data); } channel.port1.postMessage('hello'); $("#send1").click(function() { var msg = $("#msg").val(); if (msg && msg != "start") worker.postMessage("ping2"); $("#msg").val(""); }) $("#send2").click(function() { var msg = $("#msg").val(); if (msg && msg != "start") worker.postMessage("ping3",[channel.port2]); $("#msg").val(""); }) and worker onmessage = getMessage; function getMessage(e){ if(e.ports[0]) e.ports[0].postMessage("msg from sub worker 1 "+ e.data); else postMessage("msg from sub worker 1 "+ e.data); }
