SharedWorkerGlobalScope.close() - Web APIs 编辑

The close() method of the SharedWorkerGlobalScope interface discards any tasks queued in the SharedWorkerGlobalScope's event loop, effectively closing this particular scope.

Syntax

self.close();

Example

If you want to close your worker instance from inside the worker itself, you can call the following:

close();

close() and self.close() are effectively equivalent — both represent close() being called from inside the worker's inner scope.

Note: There is also a way to stop the worker from the main thread: the Worker.terminate method.

Specifications

Browser compatibility

BCD tables only load in the browser

General note: In newer browser versions, close() is available on SharedWorkerGlobalScope and DedicatedWorkerGlobalScope. In older browser versions, it is available on WorkerGlobalScope. This change was made to stop close() being available on service workers, as it isn't supposed to be used there and always throws an exception when called (see bug 1336043).
