Summary Stop using MessagePort for communication with workers
Alexey Proskuryakov
Reported 2008-11-14 10:29:44 PST
The existing MessagePort specification does not work with multiple threads or processes well, and doesn't appear to be easily fixable. Besides, Mozilla is about to ship an entirely different and much simpler API for workers. Patch forthcoming.
