> Apparent variable 'Inner' was found in a static scope but doesn't refer to a local variable, static field or class. Possible causes:
> You attempted to reference a variable in the binding or an instance variable from a static context.
> You misspelled a classname or statically imported field. Please check the spelling.
> You attempted to use a method 'Inner' but left out brackets in a place not allowed by the grammar.
>  @ line 8, column 12.
>        return Inner
>               ^
> {noformat}
> Note the class could be resolved only via import.
> Now try to uncomment a static import.
> While usually the nested class takes precedence over an import, in this case the failure to resolve a nested class results in a silent resolution to {{bugs.B.Inner}}, i.e. no error is reported.
> In both cases the reference is expected to be resolved to {{bugs.A.Inner}}
