Pretty much exactly what the summary says. Here is an example:
File 1:
module objectA;
class objectA {
public static void doSomething() {
...
}
}
File 2:
module main;
import objectA;
int main(string[] args) {
objectA.doSomething(); // Error: undefined identifier 'doSomething'
objectA.objectA.doSomething(); // Ok
return 0;
}
Obviously, the compiler is searching for a function called doSomething in the
module objectA, when it should instead recognize that a class called objectA
has been imported and an attempt is being made to access its static member
doSomething().
Please note that this is my first bug submission, so if it's already known (I
did search before posting this) or has a simple fix, please forgive me. :)
