Overload Resolution Ambiguity error in kotlin

How do I fix this Overload error, I have Overload Resolution Ambiguity error, I sync it in my project and clean it and rebuild it but it's get me bellow error ,I add main activity code in kotlin with 2 layout activity Here is a photo of the error

Here is a main activity.kt

package com.hussein.startup
import android.content.Context
import android.content.Intent
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity
import android.os.Bundle
import android.view.LayoutInflater
import android.view.View
import android.view.ViewGroup
import android.widget.BaseAdapter
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.activity_food_details.view.*
import  kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.activity_main.*
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.food_ticket.view.*


class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

var adapter:FoodAdapter?=null
var listOfFoods =ArrayList<Food>()
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

    // load foods


 listOfFoods.add(Food("Coffee","   Coffee preparation is",R.drawable.a))
   .....

    gvListFood.adapter =adapter

}


class  FoodAdapter:BaseAdapter {
    var listOfFood= ArrayList<Food>()
    var context:Context?=null
    constructor(context:Context,listOfFood:ArrayList<Food>):super(){
        this.context=context
        this.listOfFood=listOfFood
    }
    override fun getView(p0: Int, p1: View?, p2: ViewGroup?): View {
        val food = this.listOfFood[p0]
        var inflator = context!!.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE) as LayoutInflater
        var foodView= inflator.inflate(R.layout.food_ticket,null)
        foodView.ivFoodImage.setImageResource(food.image!!)
        foodView.ivFoodImage.setOnClickListener {

            val intent = Intent(context,FoodDetails::class.java)
            intent.putExtra("name",food.name!!)
            intent.putExtra("des",food.des!!)
            intent.putExtra("image",food.image!!)
            context!!.startActivity(intent)
        }
        foodView.tvName.text = food.name!!
        return  foodView

    }

    override fun getItem(p0: Int): Any {
        return listOfFood[p0]
    }

    override fun getItemId(p0: Int): Long {
       return p0.toLong()
    }

    override fun getCount(): Int {

        return listOfFood.size
    }

    }
 }

Here is a layout xml

You are defining ivFoodImage in both of your layouts. And you are importing their definitions like so...

import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.activity_food_details.view.*
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.food_ticket.view.*

Consider changing the name in one of the layouts, or being explicit in the definition of foodView, or removing the import with activity_food_details if it's not being used.

EDIT

To clarify the possible solutions...

"Changing the name" - in one of your layouts, change ivFoodImage to something else like ivFoodImage_Details.
"removing the unused import" - self explanatory and a good practice.
"being explicit" - remove the import for the one you want to be explicit with and then do what the OP is doing i.e., var foodView = inflator.inflate(R.layout.food_ticket,null), explicitly loading from food_ticket in this case.

The concept of using the same name in multiple layouts is not bad (think in terms of interfaces and injection). But the kotlinx.android.synthetic is a syntactic candy to make things less verbose. It gets in the way of the goal here.

Here is yet another alternative. If you are trying to have a layout implement a sort of "Interface", consider wrapping each layout with its own Kotlin class and have the class implement the interface instead. This might get tedious if you have lots of such layouts, so "pick your poison", this is just another idea.

Last, see @Daniel Wilson's answer. It avoids the compiler error and makes you specify the namespace for which ivFoodImage you want to use.

Referencing this answer, you can specifically import the ID you want and name it using Kotlin's as keyword

package XXX

import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.num_info_inet_plus_pack.view.circle as inetViewCircle
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.num_info_pack.view as circle
//...
val inetView = activity.layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.num_info_pack, parent, false)
inetViewCircle.setBackgroundResource(background)

This means that resource ids in java files from xml files are not properly imported, or are imported with wrong xml resource id files because of same name.

Suppose for

----activity_login 
----activity_main

there is a textview with same id.

Kotlin imports tries to search every xml file ids, and the id gets wrongly imported.

Solution:: Remove all imports after copy/paste and follow alt+enter one by one.
