Note: This feature is available in Dedicated Web Workers.

The RTCErrorEvent interface of the WebRTC API represents an error event sent to a WebRTC object. It inherits from the standard Event interface, adding RTC-specific information describing the error.

The error events fired at RTCDataChannel and RTCDtlsTransport are instances of this object.

Note: WebRTC defines other error event interfaces, such as RTCPeerConnectionIceErrorEvent, which are used for errors that have other special information sharing requirements.
