The current implementation does not allow cloning DataViews. Bug 789593 should be implemented before this bug, though.

Does what it says on the tin.

To be clear, it should also allow the underlying buffer to be transferred. var worker = new Worker('test.js'); var buffer = new ArrayBuffer(10); var dataView = new DataView(buffer); worker.postMessage(dataView, [buffer]);

Nothing but the finest in hackish comparisons against similar cases in existing code, backed only by handwavy understanding of the approaches being implemented, without deep grokking sufficient to be fully confident of correctness!

(In reply to Sebastian Markbåge from comment #4) > To be clear, it should also allow the underlying buffer to be transferred. Assuming the existing typed array structured cloning code does that -- and I'm 99.99999% sure it does -- the cargo-culted code in this patch should do so as well, never fear.
