web api instance property
RTCDataChannel: negotiated property
The read-only RTCDataChannel property
negotiated indicates whether the
RTCDataChannel’s connection was negotiated by the Web app
(true) or by the WebRTC layer (false). The
default is false.
See Creating a data channel for further information about this property.
Value
true if the RTCDataChannel’s connection was negotiated by
the Web app itself; false if the negotiation was handled by the WebRTC
layer. The default is false.
Example
The code snippet below checks the value of negotiated; if it’s
true, a function called shutdownRemoteChannel() is called
with the channel’s id; presumably this would be
implemented to transmit a shutdown signal to the remote peer prior to terminating the
connection.
if (dataChannel.negotiated) {
shutdownRemoteChannel(dataChannel.id);
}
