atob method

String atob(String data)

The atob() method of the WorkerGlobalScope interface decodes a string of data which has been encoded using encoding. You can use the WorkerGlobalScope.btoa method to encode and transmit data which may otherwise cause communication problems, then transmit it and use the atob() method to decode the data again. For example, you can encode, transmit, and decode control characters such as values 0 through 31.

For use with arbitrary Unicode strings, see The "Unicode Problem" section in glossary entry.

Implementation

external String atob(String data);
