Is there a way to efficiently handle potentially long computations, such as parsing huge JSON responses, in a non-blocking manner?
I experimented with using the multithread.js library for background work using web workers. However, this library requires passing JSON serializable objects to the execution function, which limits its compatibility with closures and global variables. For example:
MT.process(longRunningJob, doneCallback)(jsonSerializableArgForBGJob)In terms of serialization, I came across the cerialize library, which allows for custom object serialization through property decoration. While this could potentially work, it does add complexity and may introduce errors. Additionally, I am concerned about how the library handles inheritance and polymorphism - ideally, I would like a mechanism similar to Java's Serializable interface with overridden serialize/deserialize methods. Is there a way to achieve this in TypeScript/Angular2?
