What it means
Two declarations share a name, or a name collides with a native concept, with another batch item or with a reserved domain.
What to do
Rename one of the colliding declarations. A domain may not be one of the reserved domains, and a concept may not take the name of a native one.
Next steps
A problem carries the step aimed at whoever reads it: the first when its reader is the domain's actor, the method's author, and the second for any other reader.
| Reader | Kind | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| The domain's actor | change_method |
Rename '{name}' so that it is unique and reserved by nothing, then validate the method again. |
| Any other reader | contact_owner |
Ask the method's owner to rename '{name}'. |
