Attempted to generate duplicate models with name "TypenameFieldnameItem"

Commencez par exécuter openapi-python-client generate --path=example.yaml --overwrite avec les deux schémas de l’issue, puis suivez le point d’entrée de la génération des modèles qui prend en charge l’élément de tableau inline et le modèle référencé. Le travail est terminé lorsque la forme inline ne signale plus de modèle ResultAThingsItem en double et que la réponse GET est conservée dans le client généré.

Describe the bug
I stumbled on a weirdly specific bug that causes the generator to attempt to generate duplicate models.

Apparently we need:

• a OneOf type (A), which references an Object type (B)
• An object type (B) with an array-of-object field
• An Object type (C) for the array-of-object field
• array-of-C and C must be declared inline inside B

This works

This should be the same, but doesn't work:
