DedicatedWorkerGlobalScope.name
The name read-only property of the
DedicatedWorkerGlobalScope interface returns the name that the
Worker was (optionally) given when it was created. This is the name that
the Worker() constructor can pass to get a reference to
the DedicatedWorkerGlobalScope.
Syntax
var nameObj = self.name;
Value
A DOMString.
Example
If a worker is created using a constructor with a name option:
var myWorker = new Worker("worker.js", { name : "myWorker" });
the DedicatedWorkerGlobalScope will now have a name of "myWorker",
returnable by running
self.name
from inside the worker.
