Reflector needs to convert "parent" as well as "self"

[GrahamCampbell]

Kinda an edge case. I'll fix this soon.

FYI, this is valid PHP:

<?php

class Foo {}

class Bar extends Foo
{
    function f(parent $x) {}
}

(new Bar)->f(new Foo);

Laravel should be able to method injection on Bar::f, by looking up Foo in the container, but currently it looks for the string parent, by mistake.

Is this a problem for 6.x, since running this code in Tinkerwell on 7.x works perfectly fine?

[GrahamCampbell]

Maybe you have an old version of 7.x, because the reflector code in the latest 6.x is identical to that in 7.x.

[ryangjchandler]

Yeah that was it - Tinkerwell's default app is running an older version, just tested on 7.19 and fails.

Should really be as simple as adding this though:

if ($name === 'parent') {
    return $parameter->getDeclaringClass()->getParentClass()->getName();
}
