  • SR-898 Unresolvable "ambiguous for type lookup" error when using multiple modules

Issue Description:

In Framework Something

public struct A { ... }
public class Something { ... }

In Framework OtherFramework

public struct A { ... }

Then on the main project import both modules:

import Something
import OtherFramework

let myA = A() // 'A' is ambiguous for type lookup in this context

or

import Something
import OtherFramework

let myA = Something.A() // 'A' is not a member type of 'Something'

There is no way to reference `A` in module `Something`. Except for a couple workarounds, see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/36991735/how-to-reference-a-type-in-a-module-that-has-a-type-with-the-same-name-as-the-mo
