The C++ APIs in html5.h define the Emscripten low-level glue bindings to interact with HTML5 events from native code.
Tip
The C++ APIs map closely to their :ref:`equivalent HTML5 JavaScript APIs <specifications-html5-api>`. The HTML5 specifications listed below provide additional detailed reference "over and above" the information provided in this document.
In addition, the :ref:`test-example-code-html5-api` can be reviewed to see how the code is used.
The HTML5 specifications for APIs that are mapped by html5.h include:
- DOM Level 3 Events: Keyboard, Mouse, Mouse Wheel, Resize, Scroll, Focus.
- Device Orientation Events for gyro and accelerometer.
- Screen Orientation Events for portrait/landscape handling.
- Fullscreen Events for browser canvas fullscreen modes transitioning.
- Pointer Lock Events for relative-mode mouse motion control.
- Vibration API for mobile device haptic vibration feedback control.
- Page Visibility Events for power management control.
- Touch Events.
- Gamepad API.
- Beforeunload event.
- WebGL context events.
- Animation and timing.
- Console.
- Throw.
Table of Contents
Most of these APIs use an event-based architecture; functionality is accessed by registering a callback function that will be called when the event occurs.
Note
The Gamepad API is currently an exception, as only a polling API is available. For some APIs, both an event-based and a polling-based model are exposed.
The typical format of registration functions is as follows (some methods may omit various parameters):
EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT emscripten_set_some_callback( const char *target, // ID of the target HTML element. void *userData, // User-defined data to be passed to the callback. EM_BOOL useCapture, // Whether or not to use capture. em_someevent_callback_func callback // Callback function. );
The target parameter is the ID of the HTML element to which the callback registration is to be applied. This field has the following special meanings:
EMSCRIPTEN_EVENT_TARGET_WINDOW: The event listener is applied to the JavaScriptwindowobject.EMSCRIPTEN_EVENT_TARGET_DOCUMENT: The event listener is applied to the JavaScriptdocumentobject.EMSCRIPTEN_EVENT_TARGET_SCREEN: The event listener is applied to the JavaScriptwindow.screenobject.0orNULL: If building with the option-sDISABLE_DEPRECATED_FIND_EVENT_TARGET_BEHAVIOR(default),NULLdenotes an invalid element. If building with legacy option-sDISABLE_DEPRECATED_FIND_EVENT_TARGET_BEHAVIOR=0(not recommended), a default element is chosen automatically based on the event type.#canvas: If building with legacy option-sDISABLE_DEPRECATED_FIND_EVENT_TARGET_BEHAVIOR=0(not recommended), the event listener is applied to the Emscripten default WebGL canvas element. If building with the option-sDISABLE_DEPRECATED_FIND_EVENT_TARGET_BEHAVIOR(default),#canvasis interpreted as a CSS query selector: "the first element with CSS ID 'canvas'".- Any other string: A CSS selector lookup is performed to the DOM with the passed string, and the event listener is applied to the first element that matches the query.
If the above are insufficient for you, you can add custom mappings in JavaScript using something like
specialHTMLTargets["!canvas"] = Module.canvas;
That will let !canvas map to the canvas held in Module.canvas. (You can write
that JavaScript in an EM_JS or EM_ASM block that happens before you
call the registration function, for example.)
The userData parameter is a user-defined value that is passed (unchanged) to the registered event callback. This can be used to, for example, pass a pointer to a C++ class or similarly to enclose the C API in a clean object-oriented manner.
The useCapture parameter maps to useCapture in EventTarget.addEventListener. It indicates whether or not to initiate capture: if true the callback will be invoked only for the DOM capture and target phases; if false the callback will be triggered during the target and bubbling phases. See DOM Level 3 Events for a more detailed explanation.
Most functions return the result using the type :c:data:`EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT`. Zero and positive values denote success. Negative values signal failure. None of the functions fail or abort by throwing a JavaScript or C++ exception. If a particular browser does not support the given feature, the value :c:data:`EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_NOT_SUPPORTED` will be returned at the time the callback is registered.
When the event occurs the callback is invoked with the relevant event "type" (for example :c:data:`EMSCRIPTEN_EVENT_CLICK`), a struct containing the details of the event that occurred, and the userData that was originally passed to the registration function. The general format of the callback function is:
typedef EM_BOOL (*em_someevent_callback_func) // Callback function. Return true if event is "consumed".
(
int eventType, // The type of event.
const EmscriptenSomeEvent *someEvent, // Information about the event.
void *userData // User data passed from the registration function.
);Callback handlers that return an :c:data:`EM_BOOL` may specify true to signal that the handler consumed the event (this suppresses the default action for that event by calling its .preventDefault(); member). Returning false indicates that the event was not consumed — the default browser event action is carried out and the event is allowed to pass on/bubble up as normal.
Calling a registration function with a null pointer for the callback causes a de-registration of that callback from the given target element. All event handlers are also automatically unregistered when the C exit() function is invoked during the atexit handler pass. Either use the function :c:func:`emscripten_set_main_loop` or set Module.noExitRuntime = true; to make sure that leaving main() will not immediately cause an exit() and clean up the event handlers.
Some functions, including :c:func:`emscripten_request_pointerlock` and :c:func:`emscripten_request_fullscreen`, are affected by web security.
While the functions can be called anywhere, the actual "requests" can only be raised inside the handler for a user-generated event (for example a key, mouse or touch press/release).
When porting code, it may be difficult to ensure that the functions are called inside appropriate event handlers (so that the requests are raised immediately). As a convenience, developers can set deferUntilInEventHandler=true to automatically defer insecure requests until the user next presses a keyboard or mouse button. This simplifies porting, but often results in a poorer user experience. For example, the user must click once on the canvas to hide the pointer or transition to full screen.
Where possible, the functions should only be called inside appropriate event handlers. Setting deferUntilInEventHandler=false causes the functions to abort with an error if the request is refused due to a security restriction: this is a useful mechanism for discovering instances where the functions are called outside the handler for a user-generated event.
The HTML5 test code demonstrates how to use this API:
.. c:macro:: EM_BOOL
This is the Emscripten type for a ``bool``.
Possible values:
.. c:macro:: EM_TRUE
This is the Emscripten value for ``true``.
.. c:macro:: EM_FALSE
This is the Emscripten value for ``false``.
.. c:macro:: EM_UTF8
This is the Emscripten type for a UTF8 string (maps to a ``char``). This is used for node names, element ids, etc.
Most functions in this API return a result of type :c:data:`EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT`. None of the functions fail or abort by throwing a JavaScript or C++ exception. If a particular browser does not support the given feature, the value :c:data:`EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_NOT_SUPPORTED` will be returned at the time the callback is registered.
.. c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT
This type is used to return the result of most functions in this API. Zero and positive values denote success, while negative values signal failure. Possible values are listed below.
.. c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_SUCCESS
The operation succeeded.
.. c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_DEFERRED
The requested operation cannot be completed now for :ref:`web security reasons<web-security-functions-html5-api>`, and has been deferred for completion in the next event handler.
.. c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_NOT_SUPPORTED
The given operation is not supported by this browser or the target element. This value will be returned at the time the callback is registered if the operation is not supported.
.. c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_FAILED_NOT_DEFERRED
The requested operation could not be completed now for :ref:`web security reasons<web-security-functions-html5-api>`. It failed because the user requested the operation not be deferred.
.. c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_INVALID_TARGET
The operation failed because the specified target element is invalid.
.. c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_UNKNOWN_TARGET
The operation failed because the specified target element was not found.
.. c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_INVALID_PARAM
The operation failed because an invalid parameter was passed to the function.
.. c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_FAILED
Generic failure result message, returned if no specific result is available.
.. c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_NO_DATA
The operation failed because no data is currently available.
.. c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_EVENT_KEYPRESS
EMSCRIPTEN_EVENT_KEYDOWN
EMSCRIPTEN_EVENT_KEYUP
Emscripten key events... c:macro:: DOM_KEY_LOCATION
The location of the key on the keyboard; one of the values below.
.. c:macro:: DOM_KEY_LOCATION_STANDARD

The event structure passed in `keyboard events <https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/dom3events/raw-file/tip/html/DOM3-Events.html#keys>`_: ``keypress``, ``keydown`` and ``keyup``.
Note that since the `DOM Level 3 Events spec <https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/dom3events/raw-file/tip/html/DOM3-Events.html#keys>`_ is very recent at the time of writing (2014-03), uniform support for the different fields in the spec is still in flux. Be sure to check the results in multiple browsers. See the `unmerged pull request #2222 <https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/pull/2222>`_ for an example of how to interpret the legacy key events.
.. c:member:: double timestamp
Absolute wallclock time when the data was recorded (milliseconds).
.. c:member:: EM_UTF8 key
The printed representation of the pressed key.
Maximum size 32 ``char`` (i.e. ``EM_UTF8 key[32]``).
.. c:member:: EM_UTF8 code
A string that identifies the physical key being pressed. The value is not affected by the current keyboard layout or modifier state, so a particular key will always return the same value.
Maximum size 32 ``char`` (i.e. ``EM_UTF8 code[32]``).
.. c:member:: unsigned long location
Indicates the location of the key on the keyboard. One of the :c:data:`DOM_KEY_LOCATION <DOM_KEY_LOCATION_STANDARD>` values.
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL ctrlKey
EM_BOOL shiftKey
EM_BOOL altKey
EM_BOOL metaKey
Specifies which modifiers were active during the key event.
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL repeat
Specifies if this keyboard event represents a repeated press.
.. c:member:: EM_UTF8 locale
A locale string indicating the configured keyboard locale. This may be an empty string if the browser or device doesn't know the keyboard's locale.
Maximum size 32 char (i.e. ``EM_UTF8 locale[32]``).
.. c:member:: EM_UTF8 charValue
The following fields are values from previous versions of the DOM key events specifications. See `the character representation of the key <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/KeyboardEvent?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=DOM%2FKeyboardEvent>`_. This is the field ``char`` from the docs, but renamed to ``charValue`` to avoid a C reserved word.
Maximum size 32 ``char`` (i.e. ``EM_UTF8 charValue[32]``).
.. warning:: This attribute has been dropped from DOM Level 3 events.
.. c:member:: unsigned long charCode
The Unicode reference number of the key; this attribute is used only by the keypress event. For keys whose ``char`` attribute contains multiple characters, this is the Unicode value of the first character in that attribute.
.. warning:: This attribute is deprecated, you should use the field ``key`` instead, if available.
.. c:member:: unsigned long keyCode
A system and implementation dependent numerical code identifying the unmodified value of the pressed key.
.. warning:: This attribute is deprecated, you should use the field ``key`` instead, if available.
.. c:member:: unsigned long which
A system and implementation dependent numeric code identifying the unmodified value of the pressed key; this is usually the same as ``keyCode``.
.. warning:: This attribute is deprecated, you should use the field ``key`` instead, if available. Note thought that while this field is deprecated, the cross-browser support for ``which`` may be better than for the other fields, so experimentation is recommended. Read issue https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/issues/2817 for more information.

Emscripten `fullscreenchange <https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/fullscreen/raw-file/tip/Overview.html>`_ event... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_FULLSCREEN_SCALE
An enum-like type which specifies how the Emscripten runtime should treat the CSS size of the target element when displaying it in fullscreen mode via calls to functions
:c:func:`emscripten_request_fullscreen_strategy` and :c:func:`emscripten_enter_soft_fullscreen`... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_FULLSCREEN_SCALE_DEFAULT
Specifies that the DOM element should not be resized by Emscripten runtime when transitioning between fullscreen and windowed modes. The browser will be responsible for
scaling the DOM element to the fullscreen size. The proper browser behavior in this mode is to stretch the element to fit the full display ignoring aspect ratio, but at the
time of writing, browsers implement different behavior here. See the discussion at https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/issues/2556 for more information... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_FULLSCREEN_SCALE_STRETCH
Specifies that the Emscripten runtime should explicitly stretch the CSS size of the target element to cover the whole screen when transitioning to fullscreen mode. This
will change the aspect ratio of the displayed content... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_FULLSCREEN_SCALE_ASPECT
Specifies that the Emscripten runtime should explicitly scale the CSS size of the target element to cover the whole screen, while adding either vertical or horizontal
black letterbox padding to preserve the aspect ratio of the content. The aspect ratio that is used here is the render target size of the canvas element. To change the
desired aspect ratio, call :c:func:`emscripten_set_canvas_element_size` before entering fullscreen mode... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_FULLSCREEN_CANVAS_SCALE
An enum-like type which specifies how the Emscripten runtime should treat the pixel size (render target resolution) of the target canvas element when displaying it in
fullscreen mode via calls to functions :c:func:`emscripten_request_fullscreen_strategy` and :c:func:`emscripten_enter_soft_fullscreen`. To better understand the
underlying distinction between the CSS size of a canvas element versus the render target size of a canvas element, see https://www.khronos.org/webgl/wiki/HandlingHighDPI... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_FULLSCREEN_CANVAS_SCALE_NONE
Specifies that the Emscripten runtime should not do any changes to the render target resolution of the target canvas element that is displayed in fullscreen mode. Use
this mode when your application is set up to render to a single fixed resolution that cannot be changed under any condition... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_FULLSCREEN_CANVAS_SCALE_STDDEF
Specifies that the Emscripten runtime should resize the render target of the canvas element to match 1:1 with the CSS size of the element in fullscreen mode. On high DPI
displays (`window.devicePixelRatio` > 1), the CSS size is not the same as the physical screen resolution of the device. Call :c:func:`emscripten_get_device_pixel_ratio`
to obtain the pixel ratio between CSS pixels and actual device pixels of the screen. Use this mode when you want to render to a pixel resolution that is DPI-independent... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_FULLSCREEN_CANVAS_SCALE_HIDEF
Specifies that the Emscripten runtime should resize the canvas render target size to match 1:1 with the physical screen resolution on the device. This corresponds to high
definition displays on retina iOS and other mobile and desktop devices with high DPI. Use this mode to match and render 1:1 to the native display resolution... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_FULLSCREEN_FILTERING
An enum-like type that specifies what kind of image filtering algorithm to apply to the element when it is presented in fullscreen mode... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_FULLSCREEN_FILTERING_DEFAULT
Specifies that the image filtering mode should not be changed from the existing setting in the CSS style... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_FULLSCREEN_FILTERING_NEAREST
Applies a CSS style to the element that displays the content using a nearest-neighbor image filtering algorithm in fullscreen mode... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_FULLSCREEN_FILTERING_BILINEAR
Applies a CSS style to the element that displays the content using a bilinear image filtering algorithm in fullscreen mode. This is the default browser behavior... c:type:: EmscriptenFullscreenChangeEvent
The event structure passed in the `fullscreenchange <https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/fullscreen/raw-file/tip/Overview.html>`_ event.

:rtype: |EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT|
.. c:function:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT emscripten_request_fullscreen(const char *target, EM_BOOL deferUntilInEventHandler)
Requests the given target element to transition to full screen mode.
.. note:: This function can be called anywhere, but for web security reasons its associated *request* can only be raised inside the event handler for a user-generated event (for example a key, mouse or touch press/release). This has implications for porting and the value of ``deferUntilInEventHandler`` — see :ref:`web-security-functions-html5-api` for more information.
.. note:: This function only performs a fullscreen request without changing any parameters of the DOM element that is to be displayed in fullscreen mode. At the time of writing, there are differences in how browsers present elements in fullscreen mode. For more information, read the discussion at https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/issues/2556. To display an element in fullscreen mode in a way that is consistent across browsers, prefer calling the function :c:func:`emscripten_request_fullscreen_strategy` instead. This function is best called only in scenarios where the preconfigured presets defined by :c:func:`emscripten_request_fullscreen_strategy` conflict with the developer's use case in some way.
:param target: |target-parameter-doc|
:type target: const char*
:param EM_BOOL deferUntilInEventHandler: If ``true`` requests made outside of a user-generated event handler are automatically deferred until the user next presses a keyboard or mouse button. If ``false`` the request will fail if called outside of a user-generated event handler.

:rtype: **EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT**.. c:function:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT emscripten_request_fullscreen_strategy(const char *target, EM_BOOL deferUntilInEventHandler, const EmscriptenFullscreenStrategy *fullscreenStrategy)
Requests the given target element to transition to full screen mode, using a custom presentation mode for the element. This function is otherwise the same as :c:func:`emscripten_request_fullscreen`, but this function adds options to control how resizing and aspect ratio, and ensures that the behavior is consistent across browsers.
.. note:: This function makes changes to the DOM to satisfy consistent presentation across browsers. These changes have been designed to intrude as little as possible, and the changes are cleared once windowed browsing is restored. If any of these changes are conflicting, see the function :c:func:`emscripten_request_fullscreen` instead, which performs a bare fullscreen request without any modifications to the DOM.
:param fullscreenStrategy: [in] Points to a configuration structure filled by the caller which specifies display options for the fullscreen mode.
:type fullscreenStrategy: const EmscriptenFullscreenStrategy*.. c:function:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT emscripten_exit_fullscreen(void)
Returns back to windowed browsing mode from a proper fullscreen mode.
Do not call this function to attempt to return to windowed browsing mode from a soft fullscreen mode, or vice versa.
:returns: :c:data:`EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_SUCCESS`, or one of the other result values.
:rtype: |EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT|.. c:function:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT emscripten_enter_soft_fullscreen(const char *target, const EmscriptenFullscreenStrategy *fullscreenStrategy)
Enters a "soft" fullscreen mode, where the given target element is displayed in the whole client area of the page and all other elements are hidden, but does not actually request fullscreen mode for the browser. This function is useful in cases where the actual Fullscreen API is not desirable or needed, for example in packaged apps for Firefox OS, where applications essentially already cover the whole screen.
Pressing the esc button does not automatically exit the soft fullscreen mode. To return to windowed presentation mode, manually call the function :c:func:`emscripten_exit_soft_fullscreen`... c:function:: EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT emscripten_exit_soft_fullscreen()
Returns back to windowed browsing mode from a soft fullscreen mode. Do not call this function to attempt to return to windowed browsing mode from a real fullscreen mode, or vice versa... c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_EVENT_POINTERLOCKCHANGE

This function samples a new state of connected Gamepad data, and returns either
EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_SUCCESS if Gamepad API is supported by the current browser,
or EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_NOT_SUPPORTED if Gamepad API is not supported. Note that
even if EMSCRIPTEN_RESULT_SUCCESS is returned, there may not be any gamepads
connected yet to the current browser tab.
Call this function before calling either of the functions
emscripten_get_num_gamepads() or emscripten_get_gamepad_status()... c:function:: int emscripten_get_num_gamepads(void)
After having called emscripten_sample_gamepad_data(), this function
returns the number of gamepads connected to the system or

support gamepads.
.. note:: A gamepad does not show up as connected until a button on it is pressed.
.. note::
Gamepad API uses an array of gamepad state objects to return the state of
each device. The devices are identified via the index they are present in in
this array. Because of that, if one first connects gamepad A, then gamepad
B, and then disconnects gamepad A, the gamepad B shall not take the place of
gamepad A, so in this scenario, this function will still keep returning two
for the count of connected gamepads, even though gamepad A is no longer
present. To find the actual number of connected gamepads, listen for the
gamepadconnected and gamepaddisconnected events. Consider the return value
of function emscripten_get_num_gamepads() minus one to be the largest index
value that can be passed to the function emscripten_get_gamepad_status().

.. c:macro:: EMSCRIPTEN_EVENT_WEBGLCONTEXTLOST
EMSCRIPTEN_EVENT_WEBGLCONTEXTRESTORED
Emscripten `WebGL context`_ events... c:type:: EMSCRIPTEN_WEBGL_CONTEXT_HANDLE
Represents a handle to an Emscripten WebGL context object. The value 0 denotes an invalid/no context (this is a typedef to an ``intptr_t``).
.. c:type:: EmscriptenWebGLContextAttributes
Specifies `WebGL context creation parameters <http://www.khronos.org/registry/webgl/specs/latest/1.0/#5.2>`_.
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL alpha
If ``true``, request an alpha channel for the context. If you create an alpha channel, you can blend the canvas rendering with the underlying web page contents. Default value: ``true``.
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL depth
If ``true``, request a depth buffer of at least 16 bits. If ``false``, no depth buffer will be initialized. Default value: ``true``.
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL stencil
If ``true``, request a stencil buffer of at least 8 bits. If ``false``, no stencil buffer will be initialized. Default value: ``false``.
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL antialias
If ``true``, antialiasing will be initialized with a browser-specified algorithm and quality level. If ``false``, antialiasing is disabled. Default value: ``true``.
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL premultipliedAlpha
If ``true``, the alpha channel of the rendering context will be treated as representing premultiplied alpha values. If ``false``, the alpha channel represents non-premultiplied alpha. Default value: ``true``.
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL preserveDrawingBuffer
If ``true``, the contents of the drawing buffer are preserved between consecutive ``requestAnimationFrame()`` calls. If ``false``, color, depth and stencil are cleared at the beginning of each ``requestAnimationFrame()``. Generally setting this to ``false`` gives better performance. Default value: ``false``.
.. c:member:: EM_WEBGL_POWER_PREFERENCE powerPreference
Specifies a hint to the WebGL canvas implementation to how it should choose the use of available GPU resources. One of EM_WEBGL_POWER_PREFERENCE_DEFAULT, EM_WEBGL_POWER_PREFERENCE_LOW_POWER, EM_WEBGL_POWER_PREFERENCE_HIGH_PERFORMANCE.
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat
If ``true``, requests context creation to abort if the browser is only able to create a context that does not give good hardware-accelerated performance. Default value: ``false``.
.. c:member:: int majorVersion
int minorVersion
Emscripten-specific extensions which specify the WebGL context version to initialize.
For example, pass in ``majorVersion=1``, ``minorVersion=0`` to request a WebGL 1.0 context, and ``majorVersion=2``, ``minorVersion=0`` to request a WebGL 2.0 context.
Default value: ``majorVersion=1``, ``minorVersion=0``
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL enableExtensionsByDefault
If ``true``, all GLES2-compatible non-performance-impacting WebGL extensions will automatically be enabled for you after the context has been created. If ``false``, no extensions are enabled by default, and you need to manually call :c:func:`emscripten_webgl_enable_extension` to enable each extension that you want to use. Default value: ``true``.
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL explicitSwapControl
By default, when ``explicitSwapControl`` is in its default state ``false``, rendered WebGL content is implicitly presented (displayed to the user) on the canvas when the event handler that renders with WebGL returns back to the browser event loop. If ``explicitSwapControl`` is set to ``true``, rendered content will not be displayed on screen automatically when event handler function finishes, but the control of swapping is given to the user to manage, via the ``emscripten_webgl_commit_frame()`` function.
In order to be able to set ``explicitSwapControl==true``, support for it must explicitly be enabled either 1) via adding the ``-sOFFSCREEN_FRAMEBUFFER`` Emscripten linker flag, and enabling ``renderViaOffscreenBackBuffer==1``, or 2) via adding the linker flag ``-sOFFSCREENCANVAS_SUPPORT``, and running in a browser that supports OffscreenCanvas.
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL renderViaOffscreenBackBuffer
If ``true``, an extra intermediate backbuffer (offscreen render target) is allocated to the created WebGL context, and rendering occurs to this backbuffer instead of directly onto the WebGL "default backbuffer". This is required to be enabled if 1) ``explicitSwapControl==true`` and the browser does not support OffscreenCanvas, 2) when performing WebGL rendering in a worker thread and the browser does not support OffscreenCanvas, and 3) when performing WebGL context accesses from multiple threads simultaneously (independent of whether OffscreenCanvas is supported or not).
Because supporting offscreen framebuffer adds some amount of extra code to the compiled output, support for it must explicitly be enabled via the ``-sOFFSCREEN_FRAMEBUFFER`` Emscripten linker flag. When building simultaneously with both ``-sOFFSCREEN_FRAMEBUFFER`` and ``-sOFFSCREENCANVAS_SUPPORT`` linker flags enabled, offscreen backbuffer can be used as a polyfill-like compatibility fallback to enable rendering WebGL from a pthread when the browser does not support the OffscreenCanvas API.
.. c:member:: EM_BOOL proxyContextToMainThread
This member specifies the threading model that will be used for the created WebGL context, when the WebGL context is created in a pthread. Three values are possible: ``EMSCRIPTEN_WEBGL_CONTEXT_PROXY_DISALLOW``, ``EMSCRIPTEN_WEBGL_CONTEXT_PROXY_FALLBACK`` or ``EMSCRIPTEN_WEBGL_CONTEXT_PROXY_ALWAYS``. If ``EMSCRIPTEN_WEBGL_CONTEXT_PROXY_DISALLOW`` is specified, the WebGLRenderingContext object will be created inside the pthread that is calling the ``emscripten_webgl_create_context()`` function as an OffscreenCanvas-based rendering context. This is only possible if 1) current browser supports OffscreenCanvas specification, 2) code was compiled with ``-sOFFSCREENCANVAS_SUPPORT`` linker flag enabled, 3) the Canvas object that the context is being created on was transferred over to the calling pthread with function ``emscripten_pthread_attr_settransferredcanvases()`` when the pthread was originally created, and 4) no OffscreenCanvas-based context already exists from the given Canvas at the same time.
If a WebGL rendering context is created as an OffscreenCanvas-based context, it will have the limitation that only the pthread that created the context can enable access to it (via ``emscripten_webgl_make_context_current()`` function). Other threads will not be able to activate rendering to the context, i.e. OffscreenCanvas-based contexts are essentially "pinned" to the pthread that created them.
If the current browser does not support OffscreenCanvas, you can specify the ``EMSCRIPTEN_WEBGL_CONTEXT_PROXY_ALWAYS`` WebGL context creation flag. If this flag is passed, and code was compiled with ``-sOFFSCREEN_FRAMEBUFFER`` enabled, the WebGL context will be created as a "proxied context". In this context mode, the WebGLRenderingContext object will actually be created on the main browser thread, and all WebGL API calls will be proxied as asynchronous messages from the pthread into the main thread. This will have a performance and latency impact in comparison to OffscreenCanvas contexts, however unlike OffscreenCanvas-based contexts, proxied contexts can be shared across any number of pthreads: you can use the ``emscripten_webgl_make_context_current()`` function in any pthread to activate and deactivate access to the WebGL context: for example, you could have one WebGL loading thread, and another WebGL rendering thread that coordinate shared access to the WebGL rendering context by cooperatively acquiring and releasing access to the WebGL rendering context via the ``emscripten_webgl_make_context_current()`` function. Proxied contexts do not require any special support from the browser, so any WebGL capable browser can create a proxied WebGL context.
The ``EMSCRIPTEN_WEBGL_CONTEXT_PROXY_ALWAYS`` WebGL context creation flag will always create a proxied context, even if the browser did support OffscreenCanvas. If you would like to prefer to create a higher performance OffscreenCanvas context whenever supported by the browser, but only fall back to a proxied WebGL context to keep compatibility with browsers that do not yet have OffscreenCanvas support, you can specify the ``EMSCRIPTEN_WEBGL_CONTEXT_PROXY_FALLBACK`` context creation flag. In order to use this flag, code should be compiled with both ``-sOFFSCREEN_FRAMEBUFFER`` and ``-sOFFSCREENCANVAS_SUPPORT`` linker flags.
Default value of ``proxyContextToMainThread`` after calling ``emscripten_webgl_init_context_attributes()`` is ``EMSCRIPTEN_WEBGL_CONTEXT_PROXY_DISALLOW``, if the WebGL context is being created on the main thread. This means that by default WebGL contexts created on the main thread are not shareable between multiple threads (to avoid accidental performance loss from enabling proxying when/if it is not needed). To create a context that can be shared between multiple pthreads, set the ``proxyContextToMainThread`` flag ``EMSCRIPTEN_WEBGL_CONTEXT_PROXY_ALWAYS``... c:type:: em_webgl_context_callback

The API provided here are low-level functions that directly call the relevant Web APIs and nothing more. They don't integrate with the emscripten runtime, such as checking if the program has halted and cancelling a callback if so. For that purpose, see the function :c:func:`emscripten_set_main_loop()`.
.. c:function:: long emscripten_set_timeout(void (*cb)(void *userData), double msecs, void *userData)
Performs a ``setTimeout()`` callback call on the given function on the calling thread.
:param cb: The callback function to call.
:param msecs: Millisecond delay until the callback should fire.
:param userData: Specifies a pointer sized field of custom data that will be passed in to the callback function.
:returns: An ID to the ``setTimeout()`` call that can be passed to :c:func:`emscripten_clear_timeout()` to cancel the pending timeout timer.
.. c:function:: void emscripten_clear_timeout(long setTimeoutId)
Cancels a pending ``setTimeout()`` call on the calling thread. This function must be called on the same
thread as the :c:func:`emscripten_set_timeout()` call that registered the callback.
:param setTimeoutId: An ID returned by function :c:func:`emscripten_set_timeout()`.
.. c:function:: void emscripten_set_timeout_loop(EM_BOOL (*cb)(double time, void *userData), double intervalMsecs, void *userData)
Initializes a ``setTimeout()`` loop on the given function on the calling thread. The specified callback
function 'cb' needs to keep returning ``EM_TRUE`` as long as the animation loop should continue to run.
When the function returns false, the ``setTimeout()`` loop will stop.
Note: The loop will start immediately with a 0 msecs delay - the passed in intervalMsecs time specifies
the interval that the consecutive callback calls should fire at.
:param cb: The callback function to call.
:param intervalMsecs: Millisecond interval at which the callback should keep firing.
:param userData: Specifies a pointer sized field of custom data that will be passed in to the callback function.
.. c:function:: long emscripten_request_animation_frame(EM_BOOL (*cb)(double time, void *userData), void *userData)
Performs a single ``requestAnimationFrame()`` callback call on the given function on the calling thread.
:param cb: The callback function to call. This function will receive the current high precision timer value
(value of ``performance.now()``) at the time of the call.
:param userData: Specifies a pointer sized field of custom data that will be passed in to the callback function.
:returns: An ID to the ``requestAnimationFrame()`` call that can be passed to
:c:func:`emscripten_cancel_animation_frame()` to
cancel the pending ``requestAnimationFrame`` timer.
.. c:function:: void emscripten_cancel_animation_frame(long requestAnimationFrameId)
Cancels a registered ``requestAnimationFrame()`` callback on the calling thread before it is run. This
function must be called on the same thread as the :c:func:`emscripten_request_animation_frame()` call that
registered the callback.
:param requestAnimationFrameId: An ID returned by function :c:func:`emscripten_request_animation_frame()`.
.. c:function:: void emscripten_request_animation_frame_loop(EM_BOOL (*cb)(double time, void *userData), void *userData)
Initializes a ``requestAnimationFrame()`` loop on the given function on the calling thread. The specified
callback function 'cb' needs to keep returning ``EM_TRUE`` as long as the animation loop should continue
to run. When the function returns false, the animation frame loop will stop.
:param cb: The callback function to call. This function will receive the current high precision timer value
(value of ``performance.now()``) at the time of the call.
:param userData: Specifies a pointer sized field of custom data that will be passed in to the callback function.
.. c:function:: long emscripten_set_immediate(void (*cb)(void *userData), void *userData)
Performs a ``setImmediate()`` callback call on the given function on the calling thread. Returns an ID
to the ``setImmediate()`` call that can be passed to :c:func:`emscripten_clear_immediate()` function to cancel
a pending ``setImmediate()`` invocation.
TODO: Currently the polyfill of ``setImmediate()`` only works in the main browser thread, but not in pthreads.
:param cb: The callback function to call.
:param userData: Specifies a pointer sized field of custom data that will be passed in to the callback function.
:returns: An ID to the ``setImmediate()`` call that can be passed to :c:func:`emscripten_clear_immediate()` to cancel the pending callback.
.. c:function:: void emscripten_clear_immediate(long setImmediateId)
Cancels a pending ``setImmediate()`` call on the calling thread. This function must be called on the same
thread as the :c:func:`emscripten_set_immediate()` call that registered the callback.
:param setImmediateId: An ID returned by function :c:func:`emscripten_set_immediate()`.
.. c:function:: void emscripten_set_immediate_loop(EM_BOOL (*cb)(void *userData), void *userData)
Initializes a ``setImmediate()`` loop on the given function on the calling thread. The specified callback
function 'cb' needs to keep returning ``EM_TRUE`` as long as the loop should continue to run.
When the function returns false, the ``setImmediate()`` loop will stop.
TODO: Currently the polyfill of ``setImmediate()`` only works in the main browser thread, but not in pthreads.
:param cb: The callback function to call.
:param userData: Specifies a pointer sized field of custom data that will be passed in to the callback function.
.. c:function:: long emscripten_set_interval(void (*cb)(void *userData), double intervalMsecs, void *userData)
Initializes a ``setInterval()`` loop on the given function on the calling thread. Returns an ID to the
initialized loop. Call :c:func:`emscripten_clear_interval()` with this ID to terminate the loop.
Note that this function will cause the given callback to be called repeatedly. Do not call
``emscripten_set_interval()`` again on the same callback function from inside the callback, as that would
register multiple loops to run simultaneously.
:param cb: The callback function to call.
:param intervalMsecs: Millisecond interval at which the callback should keep firing.
:param userData: Specifies a pointer sized field of custom data that will be passed in to the callback function.
:returns: An ID to the setInterval() call that can be passed to emscripten_clear_interval() to cancel the
currently executing interval timer.
.. c:function:: void emscripten_clear_interval(long setIntervalId)
Cancels a currently executing ``setInterval()`` loop on the calling thread. This function must be called on
the same thread as the :c:func:`emscripten_set_interval()` call that registered the callback.
:param setIntervalId: An ID returned by function :c:func:`emscripten_set_interval()`.
.. c:function:: double emscripten_date_now(void)
Calls JavaScript ``Date.now()`` function in the current thread.
:returns: The number of msecs elapsed since the UNIX epoch. (00:00:00 Thursday, 1 January 1970)
.. c:function:: double emscripten_performance_now(void)
Calls JavaScript ``performance.now()`` function in the current thread. Note that the returned value of
this function is based on different time offset depending on which thread this function is called in.
That is, do not compare absolute time values returned by performance.now() across threads. (comparing
relative timing values is ok). On the main thread this function returns the number of milliseconds elapsed
since page startup time. In a Web Worker/pthread, this function returns the number of milliseconds since
the Worker hosting that pthread started up. (Workers are generally not torn down when a pthread quits and
a second one starts, but they are kept alive in a pool, so this function is not guaranteed to start
counting time from 0 at the time when a pthread starts)
:returns: A high precision wallclock time value in msecs.
.. c:function:: void emscripten_throw_number(double number)
Invokes JavaScript throw statement and throws a number.
.. c:function:: void emscripten_throw_string(const char *utf8String)
Invokes JavaScript throw statement and throws a string... c:function:: void emscripten_unwind_to_js_event_loop(void)
Throws a JavaScript exception that unwinds the stack and yields execution back to the browser
event loop. This function does not return execution back to calling code.
This function can be useful when porting code that would enter an infinite loop. Instead of
actually running an infinite loop, which is not allowed on the Web, we can set up the body of
the loop to execute asynchronously (using :c:func:`emscripten_set_main_loop` or something else), and call
this function to halt execution, which is important as we do not want execution to continue
normally.
