Re: Iframe = multithreading ???

2017-09-14 Thread Paul Porombka
Hi Ben,

I see the time when you've posted the message and see the answers here, so 
I codn;t stop to write something here.
I will answer YES to your question, but it depends.

Generally, IFrame under the same domain is using the same thread. I don't 
know how it was at the time You've been asking, but now if you use IFrame 
with different origin (domain/host) it will use its own context, own event 
loop, so also ot will be separate thread.

Currently a Web Workers concept is using this behavior. The problem was 
always with communication between those two frames, so it was also solved 
by "Messages". You are able to post a message to different ORIGIN and 
addEventListener to "message" event to receive such messages, and voila! 
You have two way communication between threads :-)

So if you create a code that can be executed separately in different 
IFrame, and exeute it in different ORIGIN, then YES you will get REAL 
multithreading, not single event loop, real muti-event-loop :-)

It's actually a bit more 
complicated: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/webappapis.html#event-loops
While browsers are *allowed* to use different event loops for those "units 
of related similar-origin browsing contexts", it adds complications (see 
note in spec)
A quick test in my Chrome 61 on Linux shows that the same event loop is 
used for the iframe and parent browsing contexts loaded from totally 
different origins (I do heavy DOM manipulations in the iframe on the click 
of a button, and use a tight setTimeout loop on the parent that updates an 
element; when I click on the button in the iframe, I clearly see the parent 
"pause"; there are no communication by any mean between the pages; using 
127.0.0.1.xip.io and devd.io to have distinct origins for the same local 
server).
Same in Firefox 55.

So while it theorically *can* happen (is allowed by spec), it's not the 
case in practice.

Web Workers are the only (guaranteed, effective) way of "multithreading" in 
the browser.

Re: Iframe = multithreading ???

2017-09-14 Thread Paul Porombka
YES, totally agree. This is probably because Web Workers don't use any UI 
there. So they are probably better scheduled and "lighter", so works much 
better than forcing multithreading with IFrames :-)
But the concept is pretty nice, don't you think :-)

And to clarify. I was rather also considering a situation where I have a 
blank page in IFrame, without any UI elements, probably hidden frame, that 
will handle heavy operations, sent there from parent using postMessage. 
Because user interactions on UI can cause the behavior you observed. Then I 
would be closer to Web Workers. But definitely Web Workers are the right 
way in such situations. 

PS: Did you try your test using Web Workers for comparison?

Re: Iframe = multithreading ???

2017-09-14 Thread Paul Porombka
And one more thing, UI thread is only one for windowed / process 
application. So the clicks and generally Browser can be blocked when you 
will use time consuming operation on UI. If you will use e.g. setTimeout, 
no clicking etc, then it could work much better. Because this single UI 
thread must be "shared" by renderer of all frames / windows / documents 
visible to the user :-)

BTW, the *only* special syntax in GWT is JSNI [1] (uses the standard Java 
'native' keyword, and a standard Java comment, the comment content is 
special though), but JSNI is deprecated in favor of JsInterop [2] anyway. 
Everything else is "just Java" (and actually, even JSNI is "just Java": a 
Java compiler won't choke on it, it'll only break if you attempt to run it 
in a JVM)
