    static function main(argv : string[]) : void
    {
        // called when loading.
    }

    static function onmessage (event : MessageEvent) : void
    {
        switch (event.data as string)
        {
        case "start":
            self.setInterval(() -> {
                _Main.counter++;
                self.postMessage(_Main.counter);
            }, 1000);
            break;

        case "reset":
            _Main.counter = 0;
            break;
        }
    }
}

Client Code Sample

import "js/web.jsx";
import "timer.jsx";
import "console.jsx";

class _Main
{
    static function main (argv : string[]) : void
    {
        var worker = new Worker('src/sample.js');

        worker.onmessage = (event)-> {
            dom.document.write((event as MessageEvent).data as string + '<br/>');
        };

        worker.postMessage("start");

        Timer.setInterval(()->{
            console.log("reset");
            worker.postMessage("reset");
        }, 10000);
    }
}

Installation

You need jsx-linker to create runnable code:

$ npm install webworker.jsx
$ npm install jsx-linker

To compile source code, use jsx-linker like this:

$ jsx src.jsx | jsx-linker -s -t webworker > worker.js

The simplest way to create WebWorker, use jsx-init 0.3.0 or later.
