Passing objects to a web worker

Question

I\'m trying to pass an object to a web worker through the postMessage function.
This object is a square that has a couple of functions to draw himself on a canvas and so

Answer 1

The real problem with object and webworkers is with the methods of that objects. A object should not have methods just properties.

Ex:

var myClass = function(){
    this.a = 5;
    this.myMethod = function(){}
}
var notParseableObject = new myClass();


var myClass2 = function(){
    this.a = 5;
}
var parseableObject = new myClass2();

The first wont work (with the mentioned error message) with postMessage and the second will work.
