RTCDataChannel.negotiated
The read-only RTCDataChannel
property
negotiated
indicates whether the
RTCDataChannel
's connection was negotiated by the Web app
(true
) or by the WebRTC layer (false
). The
default is false
.
See Creating a data channel in Using WebRTC data channels for further information about this property.
Syntax
var negotiated = aDataChannel.negotiated;
Value
true
if the RTCDataChannel
's connection was negotiated by
the Web app itself; false
if the negotiation was handled by the WebRTC
layer. The default is false
.
Example
The code snippet below checks the value of negotiated
; if it's
true
, a function called shutdownRemoteChannel()
is called
with the channel's id
; presumably this would be
implemented to transmit a shutdown signal to the remote peer prior to terminating the
connection.
if (dataChannel.negotiated) {
shutdownRemoteChannel(dataChannel.id);
}
