Summary
This PR modernizes legacy JavaScript patterns across the webpack codebase to improve code readability and maintainability. The refactoring updates
vardeclarations, function expressions, and Promise constructors to use modern ES6+ syntax while preserving existing functionality and environment compatibility.What kind of change does this PR introduce?
Code refactoring - modernizing JavaScript syntax patterns without changing functionality.
Key Changes:
vardeclarations toconst/letwhere appropriatefunction createMessage(method) { ... }→const createMessage = (method) => ...).forEach(function(...))callbacks to arrow functionsnew Promise(function(...))constructors to use arrow functionsFiles Updated: 38 files across multiple webpack subsystems:
AbstractMethodError.js,DefinePlugin.js,RuntimeTemplate.jsDid you add tests for your changes?
No new tests were added as this is a refactoring that preserves existing functionality. The changes should be validated against webpack's existing test suite.
Does this PR introduce a breaking change?
No breaking changes are expected. However, this PR requires careful review for:
RuntimeTemplate.jsand runtime modules affect the JavaScript code webpack generates for user applicationsWhat needs to be documented once your changes are merged?
No documentation changes required as this is an internal refactoring without API changes.

Testing Recommendation: Please run webpack's full test suite to ensure all functionality remains intact after these modernization changes.
