You're asking about how postMessage() handles a SharedArrayBuffer, since the spec changed last summer from requiring the buffer to be in the transfer list to forbidding it. For the time being, Firefox allows the SAB to be in the transfer list but prints a warning in the console; by and by we will throw an error for that (and until then we'll fail any test cases that test for an exception). This is implemented in Firefox 51, if my testing right now is correct.
Since no browser has officially shipped this functionality I think some browser sniffing may be reasonable for early adopters who want to operate in a multi-browser setting. I would expect that when this functionality is enabled by default in a browser the browser would adhere to the spec. --lars On Wed, Jan 25, 2017 at 10:49 AM, Axel Rauschmayer <[email protected]> wrote: > AFAICT, all current implementations want you to transfer SABs.
