Consider the following jfiddle http://jsfiddle.net/bchapman26/9uUBU/29/

//angular.js example for factory vs service
var app = angular.module('myApp', ['module1', 'module2']);

var service1module = angular.module('module1', []);

service1module.factory('myService', function() {
    return {
        sayHello: function(text) {
            return "Service1 says \"Hello " + text + "\"";
        },
        sayGoodbye: function(text) {
            return "Service1 says \"Goodbye " + text + "\"";
        }
    };
});

var service2module = angular.module('module2', []);

service2module.factory('myService', function() {
    return {
        sayHello: function(text) {
            return "Service2 says \"Hello " + text + "\"";
        },
        sayGoodbye: function(text) {
            return "Service2 says \"Goodbye " + text + "\"";
        }
    };
});

function HelloCtrl($scope, myService) {
    $scope.fromService1 = myService.sayHello("World");
}

function GoodbyeCtrl($scope, myService) {
    $scope.fromService2 = myService.sayGoodbye("World");
}​

I have 2 modules (module1 and module2). Both module1 and module2 define a service called myService. This appears to create a name clash on myService within Angular when both modules are imported into myApp. It appears AngularJs just uses the second service definition without warning you of the possible issue.

Very large projects (or just reusing modules in general) would have a risk of names clashing, which could be difficult to debug.

Is there a way to prefix names with the module name so that name clashes don't happen?
