Fixes #27369
Currently, MorphTo inherits the
newRelatedInstanceFor()
method from BelongsTo, which ignores the passed$parent
argument and instantiates a related model based on the generalized relationship instance (without constraints) produced by the query builder . However, in the case of MorphTo relations, the no-constraint relationship instance does not know anything about related classes, and wrongly defaults to the parent model class. This commit simply makes use of the$parent
argument to produce a related instance that is appropriate for the parent model instance.This is a resubmit of PR #27382 with updated tests. Pre-existing tests of MorphTo
withDefault()
had to be modified because they relied on the old behavior ofnewRelatedInstanceFor()
where it would always return the same predefined instance of the related model. Additionally, a new test was added to ensure that issue #27369 is really fixed.
