Can I use HTML5 web workers in Google Apps scripts?

Question

Been looking around the docs if this is possible. Are they doable?

• http://www.w3.org/TR/workers/
• https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Workers_API/basic_usage

Looks like they are unavaiable as trying to delcare one throws

ReferenceError: "Worker" is not defined. (line 17, file "code")

Answer 1

According to this issue it is not possible to use the normal way, but he found a workaround using inline workers.
