Question

I need to send websocket calls from webworkers, how can i get it. I dont think so is there any support from the user agents. if support available please give me an example to do this.

sample stuff what I am trying.

var ws = new WebSocket(url);
var worker=new Worker(worker.js);

ws.onmessage=function(e){
worker.postMessage({ws:ws,data:e.data});
}

worker.js

onmessage=function(e){
  var ws=e.data.ws;
  var data=e.data.data;
  var request=someProcess(data);

  ws.send(request);
}

In the worker ws is a string deserialized JSON object, not a WebSocket object. You can’t pass objects with methods to workers which means the worker will need to reply to the main thread and the main thread does the ws.send(worker_response).

I suspect the error you are getting is a DATA_CLONE_ERR exception or similar due to WebSocket objects not being JSON serializable through the structured clone algorithm.
