`imports?window.jQuery=jquery` doesn't capture window

The expression imports?window.jQuery=jquery!angular generates the following

/*** IMPORTS FROM imports-loader ***/
var window = (window || {});
window.jQuery = require("jquery");

require('./angular');

When webpack wraps this in a function expression, the window referenced in the initialization of the localwindow is the local window rather than the global window. This is fine for contained modules, but in this case the module is just a stub that loads another module where the private window isn’t visible.

@cdauth this happens because of javascript hoisting. this line: var window = (window || {}); is interpreted as var window; window = (window || {}); so you don’t get the global window varaible.

you can solve it with some hacking: imports-loader?window=>global&window.jQuery=>jquery!angular or imports-loader?windowTemp=>window&windowTemp.jQuery=>jquery!angular

@cap-Bernardito thanks for your last comment. There is a little typo in it which you might want to correct. “additionalCode”

Thank you.
