Which version of Microsoft Internet Explorer suppo

问题:

Chrome and Firefox both support WebRTC.

Does Internet Explorer support it? Starting at which version?

If it does not, are there any plans to support it in the future, and if so when?

What about shimming support using projects like webrtc4all, is that a practical solution?

UPDATE: I am now after working with WebRTC for a year. WebRTC doesn't and won't work on IE (third party solutions that enable it barely work if at all and shouldn't be relied on). It is better to wait for Edge to rewrite to Chromium at which point WebRTC will be supported.

As of Sept 18 2015 Microsoft Edge (Spartan) is now supporting ORTC. Links and such are below.

For now IE doesn't support WebRTC. Moreover, it seems like MS don't plan to implement WebRTC. They announced a new technology called CU-RTC-Web - kinda Microsoft analog of WebRTC.

CU-RTC-WEB: http://html5labs.interoperabilitybridges.com/cu-rtc-web/cu-rtc-web.htm

Expected that this CU-RTC-WEB will be compatible with todays WebRTC.

Some people also report that IE supports WebRTC when using http://www.google.com/chromeframe

While Microsoft will be adding WebRTC in IE, probably in 2015, to which version of IE is left to be seen: https://bloggeek.me/microsoft-browser-webrtc/

Microsoft has some plans to implement WebRTC in the future, once ORTC APIs are added on top of WebRTC (also known as WebRTC 2.0).

The Chrome Frame plugin for IE has been discontinued, so that's not a good solution either.

The best option out there for now, is adopting Temasys' plugin for IE and Safari. It is free for use anywhere and adheres to the native WebRTC APIs. More information about it here: http://bloggeek.me/temasys-free-webrtc-plugin/

They say, ORTC API is available under Windows10 in the Microsoft Edge browser.

However, I did not see working example of ORTC(aka WebRTC2.0).

And I'm sure it is incompatible with current working WebRTC implemented in Chrome and FF.
