WebGL Threading

I understand that threading is not supported at this point for WebGL builds.... officially. However, I do know that there are/were builds out there that do allow some experimental support for it. What is the latest Unity version and with which settings could I get following minimalistic script running in WebGL?

Code (CSharp):

1. public class NewBehaviourScript : MonoBehaviour
2. {
3.     Text text;
4.     volatile int counter = 0;
5.  
6.     void Start()
7.     {
8.         text = GetComponent<Text>();
9.  
10.         var t = new Thread(() =>
11.         {
12.             while (true)
13.             {
14.                 Interlocked.Increment(ref counter);
15.             };
16.         });
17.  
18.         t.Start();
19.     }
20.  
21.     void Update()
22.     {
23.         text.text = counter.ToString();
24.     }
25. }

I've tried various versions without succes till now. I am aware that following editor script must be present to enable it:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEditor;
2.  
3. class ThreadSupport
4. {
5.     static ThreadSupport()
6.     {
7.         PlayerSettings.WebGL.linkerTarget = WebGLLinkerTarget.Wasm;
8.         PlayerSettings.WebGL.threadsSupport = true;
9.         PlayerSettings.WebGL.memorySize = 512;
10.     }
11. }

 

Thread support is based on browser, so no mater what its not going to work everywhere even if you do get it working

Secondly, please for the love of god use code tags when adding code to posts, its really unreadable in the current format you have added it

 

I'm trying on Firefox, Chrome and Safari on an M1 Mac. No luck till now...

 

Ok. Would it be supported somewhere in the 2021.x.x versions this year? (even unofficially/experimental)

I'm asking because it would impact our tech-stack of choice for a new product...
