When the reconnect(presentationId)
method is called on a PresentationRequest
presentationRequest, the user agent MUST run the following steps to reconnect to a presentation:
Input
- presentationRequest, the
PresentationRequest
object thatreconnect()
was called on. - presentationId, a valid presentation identifier
Output
P, a Promise.
Algorithm
- Using the document's settings object run the prohibits mixed security contexts algorithm.
- If the result of the algorithm is
"Prohibits Mixed Security Contexts"
and the presentation request URL of presentationRequest is an a priori unauthenticated URL, then return a Promise rejected with aSecurityError
and abort these steps. - If the document object's active sandboxing flag set has the sandboxed presentation browsing context flag set, then return a Promise rejected with a
SecurityError
and abort these steps. - Let P be a new Promise.
- Return P but continue running these steps in parallel.
- Search the set of controlled presentations for a
PresentationConnection
that meets the following criteria: its controlling browsing context is the current browsing context, its presentation connection state is notterminated
, its presentation URL is equal to one of the presentation request URLs of presentationRequest and its presentation identifier is equal to presentationId. - If such a
PresentationConnection
exists, run the following steps:- Let S be that
PresentationConnection
. - Resolve P with S.
- If the presentation connection state of S is
connecting
orconnected
, then abort all remaining steps. - Set the presentation connection state of S to
connecting
. - Establish a presentation connection with S.
- Abort all remaining steps.
- Let S be that
- Search the set of controlled presentations for the first
PresentationConnection
that meets the following criteria: its presentation connection state is notterminated
, its presentation URL is equal to one of the presentation request URLs of presentationRequest, and its presentation identifier is equal to presentationId. - If such a
PresentationConnection
exists, let E be thatPresentationConnection
, and run the following steps:- Create a new
PresentationConnection
S. - Set the presentation identifier of S to presentationId.
- Set the presentation URL of S to the presentation URL of E.
- Set the presentation connection state of S to
connecting
. - Add S to the set of controlled presentations.
- Resolve P with S.
- Queue a task to fire a trusted event with the name
connectionavailable
, that uses thePresentationConnectionAvailableEvent
interface with theconnection
attribute initialized to S, at presentationRequest. The event must not bubble and cancelable and should have no default action. - Establish a presentation connection with S.
