This error occurs when a companion class defines a member with the same name as a @static member in the companion object.
The @static annotation in Scala allows members to be exposed as static members at the JVM level. When a companion object has a @static member, the companion class cannot have a member with the same name because this would create a naming conflict in the generated bytecode.
import scala.annotation.static
class Example:
val count: Int = 1
object Example:
@static val count: Int = 0

|Companion classes cannot define members with same name as a @static member
// Rename the @static member in the companion object to avoid conflict
import scala.annotation.static
class Example:
val count: Int = 1
object Example:
@static val defaultCount: Int = 0
// Alternative: Rename the member in the companion class
import scala.annotation.static
class Example:
val instanceCount: Int = 1
object Example:
@static val count: Int = 0
