webpack: Enabling the experimental option experiments.buildHttp will cause HMR to not work.
Bug report
What is the current behavior? Enabling the experimental option experiments.buildHttp will cause HMR to not work.
If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce. 1、I’ve provided a small library of examples to reproduce the problem: https://github.com/LP1994/experiments_buildHttp_hmr.git 2、After downloading the project, go to the project root directory and execute the commands in the following order: 1)npm --force install 2)npm run dev
What is the expected behavior? Enable experimental option experiments.buildHttp. HMR also works fine.
