The terminate() method of the Worker interface immediately terminates the Worker. This does not offer the worker an opportunity to finish its operations; it is simply stopped at once.

Syntax

myWorker.terminate();

Parameters

None.

Returns

Void.

Example

The following code snippet shows creation of a Worker object using the Worker() constructor, which is then immediately terminated.

var myWorker = new Worker("worker.js");

myWorker.terminate();
